Stock Trading Tips & Advice

This is getting nuts

I’m talking to you. Sometimes I feel like I’m saying that to you. When I send out an email it is a one way conversation in which I’m always talking to you and I can’t hear you talk back to me. It is kinda nuts. You can help me a lot with this. I put together a fast and simple survey that will help me communicate better with you in future.

I want to get some feedback from you. I spend a lot of time putting together podcasts, videos, and simple text articles and want to put that time best to use. I want to know what topics you want to hear about the most when it comes to the stock market and what methods of communication you prefer. This will help me deliver more value to you in my future emails and make the time we spend together more productive. I need your help. I put together a real simple survey that won’t even take a minute for you to fill out. Once you complete it you’ll be rewarded with a link to download a complete lesson from my Stock Market Mastery Course. Just go to the survey here:

What’s my trading method?

Link: http://www.nicolasdarvas.org

Hi Trader,

Would you like to know what my trading method is based on?

In short, I use the Nicolas Darvas box method combined with water tight money management rules.

If you’re interested to see Darvas’ actual entry rules a good friend of mine recently contacted the copyright owner of Darvas’ first book “How I Made 2 Million Dollars In The Stock Market” and got permission to publish it online.

I believe it’s one of the most valuable trading books I have ever read. Best of all, you can now read it online for nothing!

A legal contract with God? (LESSON #17)

ERIC’S TIPS Lesson #17 December 17, 2008

“You need to FEED your

Hi Trader,

In the previous lesson, we talked about motivation. More specifically, we talked about the need for long term, intrinsic motivation, and about how it should correlate with your overall vision.

I talked about how you need to be inspired and excited about your vision, and about how you can draw motivation from your vision.

But excitement alone is NOT enough to keep you going…

In addition to explaining the importance of this principle, I’ve detailed 7 specific ways for you to successfully commit to your vision.

In the video I’ll even give you an EXTREME example of a man who signed a contract with God!

Here is an Effective Entry Setup!

Hey Trader,

Today, I want to talk about a setup that I learned from a professional day trader. I call it a 30-minute entry setup.

It?s a simple method for taking low risk positions intraday in stocks that have the potential to move explosively and has opened higher than the previous day?s close or opened lower than the previous day?s close.

Using the trend reversal pattern that I wrote about in the last newsletter, let?s say for example that we spot a stock named ABC that has reversed sharply to the upside according to the setup rules for a sharp trend reversal like the one that was outlined in the last newsletter.

The following day we see ABC has gapped upwards, meaning that it?s opening price is higher than the previous day?s close. When a stock gaps up after a reversal pattern like this it typically means that this is a ?professional gap?. A professional gap is when the pros on the stock exchange floors are accumulating shares of a stock because it has suddenly become in huge demand so everybody is trying to hop aboard this train.

After these conditions are met, we step aside for approximately 30 minutes to make sure that this gap won?t close downwards. If it doesn?t, then we place a buy order over the high set thus far intraday and attempt to catch an explosive rally to the upside.

I know of traders that do nothing but trader these moves in the morning to make there living and then take the rest of the day off.

Take some time and examine this technique and see if it works for you and if it does then take the time necessary to master it.

Yours,

Trader, Your Genie Journal

Hi Trader

Welcome to your second issue of “The Genie Journal”.

In this issue we cover the topic:

“But What if I Lose on My First Trade? “

If this happens to you, and let’s face it, it is quite possible, what do you do?

Well, we would never tell you what to do with your money. But we can however share with you what we do when we lose.

When we have a losing trade, we go back to the Genie Rules and almost always there is something there we missed or did wrong.

Other times, it is just the market and there really is nothing we can do.

Losing is part of trading. And you must learn to accept it as just an aspect of the game. Because trading is just probabilities.

Like us, you will lose. No question about it.

But what matters is that when you win you win more than when you lose.

The proportion of wins is not what is important. It is the size of your wins compared to your losses.

However, if we lose three trades in a row we stop and take a break from trading for a few days.

Some common mistakes that you might be making if you have a losing trade are listed below.

Avoid the 12 Most Common Mistakes!

You can avoid the most common option trading mistakes if you follow these guidelines: 1. don’t limit your strategy to calls - buy puts also and overcome the bullish bias 2. correctly determine the trend - up for calls, down for puts; sideways for covered calls 3. buy enough time - at least 4 to 6 weeks 4. exit with 2 weeks to expiration 5. avoid OTM options 6. don’t underestimate the effect of volatility 7. don’t over commit your funds - you can lose 100%, so limit your exposure 8. don’t put all your eggs in one basket - diversify over several stocks and use both calls and puts 9. don’t trade without first determining a target profit and exit point 10. never try and strike it rich from one trade 11. don’t use market orders and don’t trade at opening or closing time 12. consider the next expiration month if you can’t find a suitable trade in the current month.

It is wise to remember the following issues when trading options.

1. they have their own risk/reward 2. time depleting asset 3. higher leverage 4. less liquidity 5. can have wide bid/ask spread 6. slippage in fast markets 7. not all brokers deal with them 8. higher brokerage

But on the upside here some reasons why we still prefer to trade options.

Options Benefits 1. they are cheap to buy 2. flexibility - can trade both up and down trends 3. versatile strategies 4. limited risk - can’t lose more than you have put in 5. leverage 6. can use them to hedge 7. limits number of stocks to review 8. can generate good cashflow 9. puts have less risk than short selling.

With covered calls there are a couple of particular problems to avoid: o don’t buy small cap stocks - they can suddenly drop in value o don’t become overextended on margin o if the stock price drops beyond your stop loss, exit your position and sell the stock.

We follow these rules and it helps cut our losing trades.
