2/21/2016 3:01:03 PM 2/21/2016 1:32:54 PM K, "Very trade-able. " Please offer some assistance in understanding HOW you trade your indicators (Long/Short). ============= That little ditty I wrote only applies to HSY. Considering how much money I've lost in the last 7 months, you really should be asking JP that question. (Altho, I don't know how much info you'll get out of him.) With the exception of the ETFs, all the short plays on "intraday alerts" are JP's, not mine. I know how to pick stocks (i.e., AMBA, DWTI, TSLA, AMZN), but I can only trade them IF they're going up. I ALWAYS lose on the way down (even with stops; and let me tell you, after a while, those stop losses can add up to a fortune!). As you know, (or maybe you don't know) I don't "short" (sell) stocks. JP does that. If I want to short something, I'll get the ETF -- like DWTI. Did my indicators tell me DWTI was going to $400? Nope. But, after DWTI hit $400, my indicators told me to go long UWTI and DUST. I've lost a TON of money on both. Since January, I've lost more than I've made. My loss in AMBA last year pretty much ruined my trading capacity. Given that I'm retired, that is NOT a good thing. I am a FAILURE as a trader. You should really be asking JP about his indicators, not me. Clearly, JP is doing much better at this than I. Good luck! |

2/21/2016 3:08:24 PM Finally, trading is no longer a money-making avocation for me. It's just a hobby. At this point, like bull-riding, it's more of a spectator sport. LOL! |

2/25/2016 11:59:33 AM Hi Four, Did you get your dividend? What's amazing about HSY is, it paid a dividend AND the price went up. |

4/14/2016 11:44:28 AM Am I to assume you all are mainly day term traders? Or sometimes short term traders (more than just one day)? For day trading, are you using what minute (5, 10, 15 min) for your filtering and charting basis? For your short term trading method what main filtering basics are you utilizing to give you entry and exit information? And yes, after you answer my questions I still want to live. :-) |
