  1. Would have been more impressed if you posted this before the QQQ was at 21.

  6. There's a time to go short and one to long. Go long, man. Try daytrades instead of swing trades. Small profits will add up and you'll have peace of mind at night.

  7. I agree. You control your trades with daytrading whereas with swing, a single gap can wipe out all the gains accumulated for several days.

  8. You're right. Wait to see if there are any follow-through. It may just be another sucker rally.
