Stop Complaining And Start Making Money
A friend of mine recently made a confession. He’s having a hard time with his trading. He just can’t figure out when to take profits. Sometimes he would have a nice profit, only to watch hopelessly as it slipped away. Other times he’d take small profits. Of course, the stock would skyrocket the second he […]
Paper Trading… Should You Do It?
Sometimes in life we do things that are a complete waste of time. I’m sure you’ve done some of these… Like washing your car, only to have it rain the following day… Or planting a garden early in the spring, only to see it wiped out by freezing temperatures the following week… Or even driving […]

Stay Away From This Trading Behavior
Think of a bad behavior. Texting while driving comes to mind. I risk sounding like your mom for bringing this up. But texting while driving has got to be one of the most irresponsible things I’ve ever seen. You’re focusing your attention on a tiny keypad instead of the road? Now you’re driving a vehicle […]
A Technical Signal Giving You Consistent Profits
Many of you may have heard this excerpt from “The Road Not Taken”: “… Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.” It was written by Robert Frost. He was a great poet and playwright from the early 1900s. I’m […]
