    Watch list for 03/07/2007

    IMPORTANT: Take only the opportunities that you really like and understand. Always enter a trade with a trading plan. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me. There is a much greater chance of success in your trading if you understand the trade. That is very important. Taking just a few trades is enough to be a successful trader. Overtrading is probably the number one reason new traders fail. I personally mostly take swing trades. Please remember to keep that in mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Ivica,

    how do you screen for you trade possibilities ? Do you just go over the charts of a bunch of stocks or do you use a screening tool ?

    Regards,

    Sundog

    Hi Sundog,

    I just go over a bunch of charts every day. I need few hours watch list. During day I follow my watch list and i do intraday scanning for intraday trading idea. I had scanning service before, but now is closed, and i didn't find what i like.

    regards
    Ivica
