One of the hardest things for investors is to determine a stock target price. Once a stock does breakout from a favorable chart pattern the question is how high will it go? That is usually a very hard question to answer.

Level 2 Scalping Print E-mail
I love trading as a Shaver. It provides a tranquil sense of routine, even though the action is super-fast paced! Sometimes I like to follow a set schedule, a foundation of stability without any surprises. The funny thing is, the more trades you make per day, the less surprises actually happen. It sounds crazy, but believe me it is true.

Limiting Your Winners and Letting Your Losers Run? Print E-mail
It occupies a chapter in just about every trading book ever written. It’s been preached by every lecturing market guru since the Aden Sisters danced to the music of the gold market. Go ahead and hire a personal trading coach and likely the second thing he or she will utter will be these chosen words (right after “Trading is speculative and only risk capital should be used.”)…

Notes From The Past - Legend Of Trading - W.D. Gann Print E-mail
I came across this article that I thought everyone should read. Even though it was published a long time ago, the information is just as relevant today. I have always used a bit of Gann's trading methods in my own trading - especially to determine trend.

Odds and Edge - Probabilities in Day Trading Print E-mail
The whole concept of odds and probabilities is a subject that most beginner traders avoid, but is absolutely one of every professional trader's secrets for success. Trading the financial markets is all about managing risk, nothing is 100% accurate or works 100% of the time. There is always a certain chance, certain odds, certain probability that a trade will work or wont work. Even if a trading system generates 99% chance of success, there is still that 1% chance of failure. Nothing in trading is black or white, everything is somewhere in the gray. It is the job of the trader to determine how gray the trade is, what are odds of success. The trader can then adjust their trading based on the probability of the specific trade and the probability of the trading system that he uses. By figuring out exact odds of success, the trader can figure out his edge and maintain it.

Shorting Strategy Print E-mail
Shorting a stock is the exact opposite of buying a stock. When you short a stock you are hedging your bets that the stock will go down in price unlike when you buy a stock and believe the price will go up. In order to short a stock you must have a margin account with your brokerage firm. In addition you also have to short individual stocks on an up tick but can short the Exchange Traded Funds (ETF's) on a down tick. Thus as an investor you have more of an advantage shorting the ETF's than individual stocks.

Stop Loss Print E-mail
This is the point where you admit you were wrong. No one can pick winning stocks 100% of the time. Accept this fact. You can only play the odds.

Stop Placement Print E-mail
Stop placement is where we separate the kids from the adults. Stop placement is the sole responsibility of you as the manager of your trading business. It is one buck that you cannot pass. You are the end of the line when it comes to placing stops.

The 12 Golden Rules for Successful Trading Print E-mail
1. Adopt a definite trading plan. Because of the emotional stress that is inherent in any speculative situation, you must have a predetermined method of operation, which includes a set of rules by which you operate and adhere to, thus protecting you from yourself. Very often, your emotions will tell you to do something totally foreign or negative to what your market trading plan should be. It is only by adhering to a preconceived formula that you can resist the emotional temptations and stresses that are constantly present in a speculative situation.
