Stock Trading Tool

Stock Trading Tools On And Off The Internet – Which Ones Are The Best?

I’ve been asked several times in the past about my favorite stock trading tools.

I have several that I use on a daily basis – both online and off. Let’s go over a few of those right now.

Let’s start with offline stock trading tools. These include financial periodicals, newsletters, books, etc.

As far as online stock charts, I think BigCharts has a fantastic service. And it’s totally free! I like their charts because they are so easy to view online. They have several other “hidden” services that are highly beneficial too. (Check out their “Big Reports” to see what I mean).

But here’s my favorite online stock trading tool of all.

Up until now, I’ve told you about tools I use in researching great stocks with great fundamentals. But this tool is one I use just to flat out tell me the best stocks to buy right now – because they are moving up right now – today!

I’m talking about Telechart Platinum from the Worden Brothers.

Using TCP, I can set up scans with almost any parameters I want, and the software goes out and searches the entire stock market – in real time - and serves me these great trade setups on a silver platter!

This is my “secret weapon” in finding those stocks that take off like scalded dogs – those DDPG’s (Double Digit Percentage Gainers in one day). I used TCP to find over 57 DDPG’s since January 11, 2006. I would not be caught dead without this amazing stock trading tool.

Well, that gives you an idea of my favorite stock trading tools. Hope this helps you in your ongoing quest for investing and trading excellence!

Now, on to business.

The markets are trading flat today, as economic data is largely positive, but that news spurred concerns about further interest rate increases.  The good news is the market seems to keep shrugging off those concerns, and is marching on to new highs. Just think what may happen when the interest rate increases stop! (Go back to 1995 to see the last time that happened – then examine the aftermath).

Here’s a stock NOT trading flat today, and is one of our long-term favorites…

Stock for Review

Our stock for review today is RACK – Rackable Systems Inc.

RACK is breaking out of a slight pullback area, and gapping up off a Doji – a potentially very bullish situation. It’s also up to new all-time highs today on volume 253% above normal.

“Rack” up some gains for your portfolio – consider RACK as a long-term investment!

Product Of The Day

Stock Trading Tool Of The Century?

As I mentioned above, I would not be caught dead without my Telechart Platinum software scanning service! Highly recommended.

A Stock Trading Tool No Serious Trader Should Be Without!

Stock Trading Seminars

Stock Trading Seminars – How To Get One Each And Every Day In The Comfort Of Your Own Home.

Many of my Members have asked me when I plan to give my own live stock trading seminars. We are making plans for that in the near future, but until then, I have a few other suggestions.

In our amazing Information Age and with all the advancements in technology lately, especially on the web, there is really no reason to face the hassles of attending live seminars in faraway places if you don’t want to. Now I know right off the bat there are some of you out there who just love going to seminars in general – stock trading or otherwise. I know, because I am a self-admitted “seminar junkie”. Especially when a seminar just happens to be in oh, let’s say… Las Vegas! I’ll come up with just about any excuse to attend a seminar there!

But the truth is, you can get incredibly valuable stock trading seminars delivered right to your desktop each and every day. And I’m going to tell you later in this article about a brand new service that will deliver top-flight trading and investing seminars on CD’s and DVD’s right to your mailbox for a very small fee each month.

First of all, the way to get a stock trading “mini-seminar” right from your PC each and every day is with my very own Trade Your Way To Wealth Stock Fishing service.

In case you’re not already familiar with Stock Fishing, I produce a video each day the stock market is open. The videos vary in length from around 15 to 30 minutes, and I show you, starting from “scratch” each day, how to find the best stocks to buy for the following day. I show you how to determine the buy range and initial stop loss for those potential stock buys. And, perhaps even more important, I show you which stocks to avoid buying at all costs.

I want to help as many people as possible to discover the real world, “inside secrets” of successfully trading and investing in the stock market. I especially enjoy helping “stock market newbies” get off on the right track.

Of course, I would like all those interested to enroll as brand new Members of Trade Your Way To Wealth. But if that’s not an option, here’s another way to get top-drawer stock trading seminar information delivered to you without leaving the house.

I recently discovered a brand new service called InvestorFLIX.

You’ve probably heard of NetFLIX, right? That’s the service where you sign up and get to pick out movies on DVD’s, have them delivered to your house, and then ship them back when you’ve watched them.

Well, InvestorFLIX uses the same concept, except all the CD’s and DVD’s are about trading and investing.

From the InvestorFLIX website:

“InvestorFLIX is a video rental service where you pay a flat rental fee and get as many movies as you can handle (or have time for ;-)) sent to your house – even if you live internationally.

No longer do you have to spend thousands of dollars, travel great distances and be away from home and family to understand the secrets of the market experts.”

InvestorFLIX currently has an enormous library of 547 trading DVD’s and CD’s. The categories are numerous, including the following:

• Beginners

• Charts & Analysis

• Currency Trading

• Day Trading

• Futures

• Money Management

• Options

• Psychology

• Spreads

• Stocks

• Trading Systems

No matter what your trading and investing interests are, InvestorFLIX should have a movie just for you!

Here’s the website link for more information:

http://flix.ino.com/discover/?1637

The bottom line is this. Learn all you can about how to trade successfully, but only from experts who have actually done what they are teaching, and are already being successful with it. I’ve given you two places to look for that kind of education.

Otherwise the market will give you the most expensive “stock trading seminar” of your life!

Now, on to business.

The markets are back in gear to the upside, evidently “over” yesterday’s interest rate increase and Fed verbiage of more to come. The Dow is currently up over 58 points and the NAS up over 31. Yee-haw!

Stock for Review

Here’s a strong stock in its own bull market today…

Our stock for review today is NETL – Netlogic Microsystems Inc.

NETL is breaking out of a basing area to new all-time highs today on volume 573% above normal.

NETL is a “logical” choice to make a “net” positive change for your portfolio!

Products Of The Day

Stock Trading Seminars Right In Your Home:

I highly recommend the Trade Your Way To Wealth Stock Fishing Platinum service.

A Stock Trading Seminar On Your PC Each And Every Day!

And to extend and enhance your trading knowledge, sign up to InvestorFLIX to receive all kinds of trading seminar CD’s and DVD’s delivered directly to your home each month!

Watch winning trading DVDs that can make you rich!

Practice Stock Trading

Practice Stock Trading On The Internet – Test Your Stock Trading Systems And Skills, And You Just Might Win A Maserati GranSport!

I was checking out some stock charts at BigCharts.com yesterday when I happened to spot an interesting banner ad.

The sponsor of the ad was CNBC’s Squawk Box, and it said something about winning a Maserati GranSport if you were the winner of the Squawk Box Fantasy Portfolio Challenge.

Since I’m always looking for online stock picking contests, etc. to practice stock trading without risking any real money, I was intrigued, and clicked on the ad.

The link took me to the following website:

http://www.sbfantasyportfolio.com/index.asp#Home.asp

Basically, here’s how it works:

You get a fantasy portfolio of a million bucks to “trade” with. The contest will run eight weeks, starting on April 4th and ending on May 26th. The “richest” player after eight weeks wins a brand new, 2006 Maserati GranSport. And you don’t even have to pay the taxes on the car!

Needless, to say, I signed up immediately.

I figure at the worst, I get to practice my stock trading skills and test out some different scenarios I’ve been wanting to try out in the real world for a long time. At best, I walk away with a fantastic new car! (Not to mention one of the other “cool tech toys” the Top 25 other traders get).

I highly recommend everyone sign up for the contest. You get to practice stock trading for free, test some different things you may have been wanting to experiment with, and you just might win a great prize to boot.

However, if for some reason you’re not interested in stock picking contests, here’s another good way to practice stock trading.

Head on over to the Marketocracy website and sign up for a “trading” account there.

This is another type of  “fantasy” stock trading and investing website, but with a slightly different twist. Once you set up an account, you can set up as many “portfolios” within that account as you want. This is an excellent way to test out different trading scenarios and styles – using a particular system or style in each portfolio. You can even have a portfolio that shorts stocks!

There is also a possible huge benefit from participating at Marketocracy, especially over a period of time.

Your portfolios are being monitored by the owners of the website for performance. And if you are consistently in the top performance brackets in Marketocracy, you might be offered an actual position as a mutual fund manager!

This may be the easiest way to “prove” yourself as a successful money manager.

Here’s the Marketocracy website:

http://www.marketocracy.com

These are just a couple of ways you can practice stock trading online without risking a penny of your own money. Why don’t you check them out today?

Now, on to business.

The markets are trading higher today, as it seems another quarter point interest rate increase coming from the Fed meeting today has already been factored in. As usual, the language of the Fed today concerning the future status of interest rate increases will be sliced and diced to try to come to a decision of when (and if) the increases are about to come to an end. So it should be an “interesting” day today.

Here’s an “interesting” stock that caught our attention today…

Stock for Review

Our stock for review today is NEU – Newmarket Corp.

NEU just keeps on “keeping on” and is up again today on volume 160% above normal.

NEU is making “new market highs” - and just might provide a new high for your portfolio!

And at least think about the two methods I suggested to you today to practice stock trading!

Product Of The Day

Not sure how to even begin trading or investing, much less practice stock trading?

Don’t feel had, you’re not alone! I know lots of even so-called “experts” that couldn’t tell a stock about to go up from a hole in the ground!

But now you have no excuse for stock trading and investing ignorance any longer.

Introducing…

The Trade Your Way To Wealth QuickStart E-Class – How To Go From Stock Market Newbie To Out-Trading The Pro’s In 30 Days Or Less…GUARANTEED!

I love to work with total stock market rookies here at Trade Your Way To Wealth. One of the main reasons is that…

Stock Market Rookies Don’t Realize What “Can’t Be Done”!

By that I mean, they haven’t been brainwashed by those aforementioned “experts” into believing that the absolute maximum you can make in the stock market is maybe 14 – 16% a year.

What hogwash!

One of the statistics we monitor here at TYWTW is how many stocks I pick that have gone up over 10% - not in a year, or even a month, but in a single day.

We started monitoring that stat on January 11 of this year, since it seemed we were bagging so many of those kinds of profits.

Since that date…

I Have Picked Over 53 Stocks That Have Gone Up Over 10% In A Single Day!

I’d love to show you exactly how to do that, in one month, starting from scratch.

Stock Trading Game

A Stock Trading Game On The Internet – How Your Kids Can Learn To Actually Enjoy Math, Get Better Grades, And Just Might Become The Future “Warren Buffett’s” of Tomorrow!

I recently discovered that lots of people are searching for the terms “stock trading game” and “stock market game” on the Internet. Intrigued, I did a Google search to see what I could find.

The first Google listing under “stock market game” looked very interesting. It contained a link to “The Stock Market Game Program”. I clicked on the link to see what it was all about.

The link took me to the following website:

http://www.smgww.org

The headline and basic purpose of the site is this:

“Virtual investments. REAL RESULTS.

The Stock Market Game gives students the chance to invest a hypothetical $100,000 in a real-time portfolio. They think they’re playing a game. You know they’re learning economic and financial concepts they’ll use for the rest of their lives.”

I think the premise of this site is brilliant, and should be immediately adopted in all public and private schools. I don’t know of any curriculum at the elementary (or even junior and senior high school) level whose purpose is to teach young minds how the stock market works. This site purports to do exactly that, via a fun stock trading game competition.

And it seems the “game” and competitive atmosphere has other tangible benefits as well. Check out the following success story, from the Stock Market Game website:

Real-Life Math

LaMarr Broughton, a mathematics teacher at Simon Guggenheim Elementary School in Chicago, recently participated in The SMG Program for the first time. With little background in economics or the stock market, Mr. Broughton was learning right along with his students. "Actually," he laughed, "they're learning even faster than I am."

Mr. Broughton's school initially offered The SMG Program as an extracurricular activity, open to students in grades 6 through 8. He found that SMG Program participants become more enthusiastic about math. "They see that the concepts we're practicing in math have real-life applications. Making those connections gets them more eager to learn."

He also found that developing teamwork and camaraderie among students was one of the game's most important benefits. "My sixth grade team was in first place in our region," he explained. "Once the seventh and eighth graders recovered their pride, they approached the sixth graders to share ideas and discuss strategy. This togetherness — fostered by the SMG — is beneficial both educationally and for life."

I wanted to get some more information on this program. So I clicked on the link “About SMG” from their home page.

Here’s what I found on the “About The Stock Market Game Program”:

“Now more than ever, schools are looking for ways to meet higher educational standards while working within tighter budgets. To meet this challenge, schools are seeking more effective education tools that both motivate students and support teachers in building lifelong learning skills.

One tool that meets these requirements in an innovative yet time-tested way is The Stock Market Game™ Program. Since 1977, the program has given educators a way to improve the learning experience in thousands of classrooms. Teachers have successfully used The Stock Market Game Program to enliven core academic subjects — including math, social studies, and language arts — and research has shown there's no better way to teach the importance of saving and investing.

The Stock Market Game Program offers a vast library of learning materials correlated to national voluntary educational standards in math, business education, and economics. This resource has inspired many teachers to incorporate the program into classes in creative ways — at all levels, from fourth grade to college, all across the curriculum.

The program teaches and reinforces these essential skills and concepts:

• Math, language arts, and social studies

• Critical thinking

• Decision-making

• Cooperation and communication

• Independent research

• Saving, investing, and economics

Students use real Internet research and news updates, making the simulation an even better mirror of the real marketplace. While the competitive gameplay creates student excitement, the educational experience delivers the biggest impact.”

I would highly recommend checking into The Stock Market Game for your kids, or to try to get this curriculum into your kids’ school. Who knows, your kid could become the “Warren Buffett” of the future!

Now, on to business.

The markets are trading mostly to the downside today, with traders wary of the FOMC meeting tomorrow and the possible aftermath of Bernanke’s statements concerning the next round of interest rate increases.

But here’s a stock not wary of anything at all today, except its increase in price…

Our stock for review today is NSSC – Napco Security Systems Inc.

NSSC is attempting a nice cup base breakout today on volume 419% above normal.

NSSC just might provide a “security system” for your portfolio!

And think about your kid as the future Warren Buffett (or “Warren Buffettess”) and check into The Stock Market Game Program ASAP!

After Hours Stock Trading

After Hours Stock Trading – Tips, Tricks and Traps To Be Aware Of

A few of my Members have asked me questions about after hours stock trading.

As most of you know, the main stock exchanges – such as the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Stock Market - are only open from 9:30 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. That’s when most of the trading is done.

Trading “after hours” – outside of that time frame – has actually been going on for some time. But that used to be reserved only for the rich – high net-worth individual investors or institutional investors. However, since the turn of the century, it’s been possible for us “little guys” to get into after hours trading.

Some of the questions I’ve been asked include the following:

1)         How do I trade after hours?

2)         What brokers allow after hours trading?

3)         What are the benefits and risks of after hours trading?

4)         Where do I go for after hours trading information?

Let’s see if I can answer those questions.

As far as how you trade after hours – the mechanics – this became possible with the rise of ECNs – Electronic Communications Networks. ECNs are electronic trading systems that automatically match buy and sell orders at specified prices. ECNs register with the SEC as broker-dealers.

In order for an individual investor to trade after hours, they must have an account with a broker-dealer subscriber before their orders can be routed to an ECN for execution. ECN subscribers typically use limit orders to buy or sell securities. ECNs post orders on their systems for other subscribers to view. The ECN will then automatically match orders for execution.

For more information on ECNs, the SEC has a good explanation on their website:

http://www.sec.gov/answers/ecn.htm

Most major brokers now allow after hours trading. However, you should consult your broker and read any disclosure documents on this option. Check your broker's website for available information on trading after-hours. As with trading during regular hours, the services offered by brokers during extended hours vary. You should therefore shop around to find the firm that best suits your trading needs.

There are several benefits of trading after hours, but the main one is simply being able to take advantage of news that will positively or negatively affect the stock on the open the following regular trading day. News such as positive or negative earnings reports, new contracts, FDA approvals, etc. very often occurs after hours. This news often causes the stock to gap up or down on the open the next day.

There are many risks in after hours trading as well. These include the following:

1)         Inability to See or Act Upon Quotes.

2)         Lack of Liquidity.

3)         Larger Quote Spreads.

4)         Price Volatility.

5)         Uncertain Prices.

6)         Bias Toward Limit Orders.

7)         Competition with Professional Traders.

8)         Computer Delays.

The SEC has a great summary of these risks on the following page:

http://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/afterhours.htm

Finally, the SEC has a Special Study on Electronic Communication Networks and After-Hours Trading. After a quick review, I think this page should have almost everything you need to know about after hours trading:

http://www.sec.gov/news/studies/ecnafter.htm

There are several other good websites for after hours trading information. These include the following sites:

1)         http://quotes.nasdaq.com/asp/MasterDataEntry.asp?page=After%20Hours%20Market

2)         http://www.tradingday.com/

3)         http://www.marketwatch.com/tools/stockresearch/screener/afterhours.asp?siteid=mktw

4)         http://money.cnn.com/data/afterhours/

5)         http://www.midnighttrader.com/

As you can tell, after hours trading is not for the beginner, nor for the faint of heart. Yes, there are certain rewards, but many risks as well. As with anything else to do with trading and investing, do your homework! Take the time to do your due diligence, get all the information you can, and then make your decision.

Now, on to business.

The markets are currently doing another “swan dive” move like they did a few days ago – up nicely in the morning, but now taking the dive. There’s a battle going on as far as what news is most important today.

The good news is that weaker-than-expected housing data soothed interest rate concerns ahead of next week’s Fed policy meeting. The bad news is that crude oil futures climbed back above $64 to their highest levels in a week. It will be interesting to see where the market ends up today by the close.

Here’s a stock at its own high for the week…

Our stock for review today is LAYN – Layne Christensen Company.

LAYN is doing a nice base breakout on volume 122% above normal.

It’s “plain” to me that LAYN might be good for your portfolio!

And remember, whether doing after hours stock trading or otherwise, do your due diligence and know what your risks vs. rewards are at any time!

Stock Trading Tip

The Best Stock Trading Tip I Can Ever Give You: Don’t Believe Any Stock Trading Tips!

It’s amazing to me the way some people approach stock market trading and investing. Especially when it comes to relying on stock trading tips.

These tips come in all shapes and sizes, and from many different sources – now more than ever in our age of “Information Overload”. We are bombarded by stock trading tips from newsletters, the Internet, coming over our faxes (which is actually illegal now if you never asked for them!), cable TV, radio, mail solicitations, magazines, from people at cocktail parties, from the cab driver and shoeshine guy (OK – that’s getting a little obsolete now) and even as spam over our email, disguised as personal mail!

But here’s one of the worst places you can ever receive stock trading tips, and one that more people rely on than any one of the sources above. And that is your personal stockbroker.

I won’t get into the many reasons why that is true, but suffice it to say, your stockbroker is NOT your friend, at least 99% of the time.

It’s a sad fact, but there are certain people in the world who take much more time planning out a simple family vacation, or doing research on what car or major appliance to buy, than in doing the necessary (and extremely easy, once you know how to do it) work in deciding the best places for their investment or trading capital.

I guess most people are just naturally lazy when it comes to this. Or maybe they just don’t think they have the ability to go out and find these great stock investments and trade setups on their own.

So they rely on these spurious stock trading tips. And then wonder why they don’t make money in the stock market. They call stock trading “gambling”, and say things like “you just have to be lucky” to make money in the stock market.

The funny part is, this has been going on for decades. That’s why I think human nature must be somehow involved, since human nature never changes.

The most injurious use of these so-called stock trading tips is when they are based on some sort of “inside information”. As if the average person can have access to that! Besides, if you act on “inside information” and it really is that, you can go to prison! (Just ask Martha Stewart).

There’s a great little book called: “One Way Pockets: The Book Of Books On Wall Street Speculation”. The author was an insider at a Wall Street brokerage firm who took a close look at his company’s most active traders and analyzed their trades to glean the secrets of their success. This book has a great chapter on stock trading tips – especially using “inside information” - and why they never work.

Here’s an excerpt from that book, from the chapter “A Speculative Delusion”:

“It is far more important, to my way of thinking, to know when a poor quality of buying or selling goes into the market than to be apprised of the operation of the large financial interests; yet one has only to whisper the magic words “good buying” or “good selling” to gain the immediate attention of any Wall Street speculator. The circulation of a mere rumor that the Morgan interests are accumulating Steel or that the Standard Oil crowd is getting out of St. Paul is sure at any time to create a market following. Most of the tips that are hawked about the Street are based on the supposition that somebody-or-other of consequence is buying or selling certain stocks.”

Now here is the crucial conclusion the author made, so important the whole paragraph is in italics (the bold font is mine):

“I do not know of a single case where anyone has been able to make money consistently by following information of this character, even when the information comes to him first hand.”

Now, keep in mind, this is from a Wall Street Insider himself, so he should know.

Oh, by the way…

This Book Was Written In 1917!

That’s how I know this situation of trying to use stock trading tips for success has been going on for decades. It was an issue in 1917, and it is an issue today.

If everyone only knew how easy it can be to find market-slaying stocks on their own, without relying on these fantasy tips and false hopes. And that just happens to be our mission here at Trade Your Way To Wealth!

Now, on to business.

The markets are back in mixed mode, with most major indexes in the red, except for the small-cap S&P 600, which is eking out a small gain.

“Stocks were on the defensive early Thursday, but moved off their lows, after a weak outlook from Adobe Systems pressured the Nasdaq again.

As of 11:10 a.m. Eastern, the Dow fell 39 points, or 0.3%, to 11,278; the S&P 500 dropped nearly 4 points or 0.3%, to 1301 and the Nasdaq declined 6 points, 0.2%, to 2297. The small-cap S&P 600 eased 0.2%.

Nasdaq volume was tracking 11% lower than Wednesday. NYSE volume fell 2%.”

But here’s a stock doing more than eking out a gain today…

Our stock for review today is IVAC – Intevac Inc.

IVAC is doing a beautiful high base breakout on volume 349% above normal.

If you’re “inta” great stocks, you might consider Intevac for your portfolio!

And remember, don’t take any wooden nickels, and don’t take any stock trading tips – at least without checking them out first using our system!

Stock Trading Terms

Stock Trading Terms – Where To Find The Meanings For Any One You Would Ever Want To Know About – And Come Across As A Stock Market Expert At Your Next Cocktail Party

Many people are dazed, bewildered and confused when hearing others throw out certain stock trading terms.

Even simple ones like “margin call”, “after hours trading”, ‘advance-decline index” etc. draw blank stares from those not “in the know”.

But there is a place on the Internet you can go to get the meanings not only of the most obvious stock market terms, but even some extremely “esoteric” terms as well.

How about the term “Andrew’s Pitchfork”? Or what the heck is the “Aroon Indicator”? Not to mention the “Bear Flattener”, “Casino Finance”, the “Chande Momentum Oscillator”, the “Dead Cat Bounce”, and so forth.

Anyway, when some smart aleck starts throwing out some of the more arcane stock trading terms like those at the next cocktail party you go to, here’s what you can do.

Simply head over to Investopedia.com.

This amazing website has the definitions of just about any stock trading term you will ever come across in normal (and abnormal!) conversation.

Take the stock trading term “Andrew’s Pitchfork”. Investopedia gives this complete definition, with a chart example:

A technical indicator that uses three parallel trendlines to identify possible levels of support and resistance. The trendlines are created by placing three points at the end of identified trends. This is usually achieved by placing the points in three consecutive peaks or troughs. Once the points have been placed, a straight line is drawn from the first point that intersects the midpoint of the other two. Also known as "median line studies".

Or take the mysterious “Aroon Indicator”. Here you go:

A technical indicator developed by Tushar Chande used for identifying definable trends in an underlying security. It is made up of two lines: one line is called "Aroon up", which measures the strength of the uptrend, and the other line is called "Aroon down", which measures the downtrend. The indicator reports the time it is taking for the price to reach, from a starting point, the highest and lowest points over a given time period, each reported as a percentage of total time. Both the Aroon up and the Aroon down fluctuate between zero and 100, with values close to 100 indicating a strong trend, and zero indicating a weak trend. The lower the Aroon up, the weaker the uptrend and the stronger the downtrend, and vice versa. The main assumption underlying this indicator is that a stock's price will close at record highs in an uptrend, and record lows in a downtrend.

What about the “Bear Flattener”? No sweat:

A yield-rate environment in which short-term interest rates are increasing at a faster rate than long-term interest rates. This causes the yield curve to flatten as short-term and long-term rates start to converge.

“Casino Finance”? That’s an easy one…

Any investment strategy that is classified as extremely high risk.

“Chande Momentum Oscillator”? Investopdedia says…

A technical momentum indicator invented by the technical analyst Tushar Chande. It is created by calculating the difference between the sum of all recent gains and the sum of all recent losses and then dividing the result by the sum of all price movement over the period. This oscillator is similar to other momentum indicators such as the Relative Strength Index and the Stochastic Oscillator because it is range bounded (+100 and -100).

Finally, the “Dead Cat Bounce” (sorry, feline lovers!)…

A temporary recovery from a prolonged decline or bear market, after which the market continues to fall.

So, next time that smart aleck tries to impress you by spewing out a bunch of stock trading terms to you – just put on an all-knowing look on your face and say to him: “That sounds great, George, but my analysis of your last stock showed an Andrew’s Pitchfork, and my Aroon Indicator and Chande Momentum Oscillator are telling me we are in a Bear Flattener market environment. Yeah, we may see a Dead Cat Bounce here, but it sounds like Casino Finance to me at this stage”.

I think that should be enough to silence your smart aleck friend.

Now, on to business.

As I am typing these words, all market indexes are “in the green”. Blue chips are leading the parade today, with the Dow up almost 60 points. The NAS is up slightly, but may need some time to recover from the fourth heavier volume decline in the past four weeks.

Here’s a stock recovering nicely today…

Our stock for review today is ANGO – Angiodynamics Inc.

ANGO has formed the right side of a cup base in just seven trading days, and is poised to form the handle now for the cup and handle base scenario. It’s up over 7% today on volume 866% above normal.

ANGO looks like a “dynamic” stock for your portfolio!

And whenever you are stuck on any stock trading term – just head over to Investopedia.com to become an “Instant Expert” on any term you like!

Stock Trading For Dummies

Stock Trading For Dummies – How You Can Be Out-Trading The Pro’s In 30 Days Or Less

Now, I want to say right up front that I cringe every time I see a book or course with the title “Stock Market For Dummies” or something to that effect.  I guess I just have too much respect for my fellow man (and woman!) to call anyone a “dummy”, whether they are a “Stock Trading Dummy” or anything else.

But the fact of the matter is – you don’t have to be a Stock Trading Dummy for long.

Anyway, I can turn any “Stock Market Dummy” into someone who can out-trade the so-called “experts” in 30 days or less. That’s without knowing anything about the stock market or how it works.

Pretty bold claim? Stick with me here.

My system is totally visual – and is based on simple pattern recognition. Once you learn the handful of patterns that great stocks make right before their huge moves to the upside,  the very same patterns that occur over and over again – since they are based on human emotions - what else do you need to know?

And that’s how I can take almost any “Stock Trading Dummy” off the street and turn them into a pro trader in 30 days or less, since there is a MOUNTAIN of information they simply don’t need to know about.

For more information on my exclusive system of stock trading, simply click on the following link:

Actually, let’s just go ahead and get rid of that “stock trading dummy” term right now.

My preferred term for someone new to the stock market is “Stock Market Newbie”. That’s a term borrowed from Internet-speak about someone who is brand new to the Internet – a “newbie”. So let’s stick with that term from now on.

Now, on to business.

The market started off great today – it almost looked like a big rally was starting, but as I am typing these words, the market is falling off a cliff! Several reasons are being given in the chat rooms – with one of the main ones being that certain institutions are kicking in their sell programs today in front of the Fed meeting.

So it will be very interesting to see how the market closes today.

But here’s a stock undergoing a “buy” program right now…

Our stock for review today is BOT – CBOT Holdings Inc.

BOT is cruising to all-time highs today with a little high flat base breakout on volume 319% above normal.

BOT is hot! May want to consider some to heat up our portfolio!

Stock Trading Charts

Stock Trading Charts – Which Ones Are The Best?

I’m often asked about charts for stock trading. Which ones are the “best”? Which ones do I use/recommend, etc.

Here are my answers to those questions.

For “quick and dirty” stock chart analysis, I use the free chart service at BigCharts.com. These are the charts I use in my Stock Fishing Membership service, and the ones I use each and every day to look at dozens and dozens of charts.

But to use these free stock charts effectively, you must understand the system I use for stock chart analysis. This is also the same system I teach in my Stock Fishing service, the one you can use to glance at a stock chart and immediately tell if the stock should be bought, sold, or just left alone. It’s also the system I teach stock market “newbies” to out-trade the pro’s in 30 days or less.

I use the charts at BigCharts.com mainly for end-of-day stock analysis.

On the other hand, for real-time stock trading, I only use the charts available via the Telechart Platinum service from the Worden Brothers. For too many reasons to go over here, I think the TC Platinum service is the best value of any stock analysis service on the planet, bar none. I use the service to scan the entire stock market several times a day and serve me the best trade setups of the day on a silver platter. It just doesn’t get any better than that, in my humble opinion.

For more information on any of these stock trading chart services, or for any additional information on the Trade Your Way to Wealth services in general, please feel free to drop us a line from the “Contact Us” page or a post in our Forum. Or just head over to the Member Services page. Also, scroll to the bottom of any page on our site and click on the graphic link to get to the Telechart Platinum info page.

Good luck in your stock trading chart analysis!

Now, on to business.

The market is mixed today, with a change of pace – the NASDAQ is leading the other indexes with a gain, while the rest of the indexes are currently in the red.

The market also may be marking time until the new Fed chairman speaks later today.

Per the Investor’s Business Daily website:

“The market is awaiting remarks from Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, who is slated to speak this evening at the Economic Club of New York. Investors will be looking for clues as to where the Fed chairman stands on inflation and the future direction of interest rates. Next Tuesday, the fed funds rate is expected to rise to 4.75%, the fifteenth straight increase since June 2004.”

But here’s a stock not waiting for anything or anybody to go up today…

Our stock for review today is NOIZ – Micronetics Wireless Inc.

NOIZ is “making some” today with a strong kick to the upside from a Doji – to the tune of almost 12%. Volume is unusually large – 1,838% above normal!

Make some NOIZ in your portfolio today by considering the stock!

And to keep track of NOIZ and all the other stocks in you portfolio, be sure to check out our recommended stock trading chart services mentioned in this article.

We’ve had some real winners in this portfolio!

But if you think this free stock trading advice is good, you should see what we’ve done for our Members!

Someone recently remarked to me “You should check to see if the Guiness Book Of World Records has an entry for ‘Most stock picks from any service that went up at least 10% in a single day shortly after recommendation.’ I’ve kept a spreadsheet of your reco’s.

Hey, it’s all in a day’s work. And I love to be a small part of creating a better lifestyle for my esteemed Members.

The market is trying to make up its mind which way to go today. The large caps are mostly higher, but the smaller caps are taking it on the chin again today.

Also, from MarketWatch:

U.S. stocks traded mixed Friday as investors mulled a report on industrial production, with General Motors Corp. under pressure after the automaker posted a steeper 2005 loss than originally reported.”

But here’s a stock not acting “wishy-washy” today…

Our stock for review today is THO – Thor Industries Inc.

THO is rebounding today after a three-day pullback and a Hammer candlestick signal yesterday. Looks like a great time to get in this trending stock, as it’s up on volume 1,157% above normal.

Stock Trading Simulator – How To Test Your Stock Trading Skills Before “Going Live”

Some of my Members have asked me for a good stock trading simulator – something they could use for “paper trading” - to get an idea of how the stock market works in the “real world” before committing actual funds to their trading.

Here’s one of the best stock trading simulators I’ve found.

Since the website may change from time to time, just Google the term “Investopedia”. You should see an entry for Investopedia.com. Click on that link to take you to the website. Then click on the “Simulator” tab. That should take you to the “Investopedia Fantasy Stock Market Simulator” page. Just follow the instructions on that page, and you will be on your way to simulating “real world” stock trading.

Now, on to business.

The market is continuing its bullish rally today. Helping the market today is a benign inflation report.

Per the Investor’s Business Daily website:

In economic news, the Consumer Price Index ticked up 0.1% in February, in line with views. The core CPI also rose 0.1%, below views of a 0.2% increase. Consumer prices were tame thanks in part to a 1.2% drop in energy prices. In January, they rose 5%. Gasoline prices fell 1% compared to January's 6.4% rise.

But here’s a stock not acting “benignly” today…

Our stock for review today is TNL – Technitrol Inc.

TNL is continuing up after a nice breakout yesterday, on volume 463% above normal. The stock is showing a very nice trend as well.

“Take control” of your portfolio, and consider TNL for possible fast gains!

It’s simply because they don’t know what “Can’t Be Done” in the stock market.

I told my Members about that stock in our chat room as it was setting up, and I tell you how to find those plays on your own in our premium Baffle / RSVP / ARM service.

But back to our stock trading training program.

Anyway, if you are a self-professed “Stock Market Dummy” (I would never call you that!) please take a few minutes of your time just to check out our unique stock trading training program.

Now, on to business.

Our stock for review today is RAIL – FreightCar America Inc.

RAIL is making a nice move back to the upside after a short correction. It’s currently up over 5% on volume 291% above normal. Stochastics are coming up from oversold areas.

Budget Online Stock Trading – Who’s The Best Online Broker For Traders On A Budget?

I’ve been asked this question many times: “Who is the best broker for budget online stock trading?”

And my answer is always: “It depends.”

Here are some of the things to think about when selecting an online broker for stock trading – whether on a budget or otherwise.

Do you plan to day trade?

Day trading can be extremely risky and can result in substantial financial losses in a short period of time. If you plan to day-trade, you are required by most brokers to have a starting trading account of $25,000, and only trade in margin accounts. This is due to rules established by the NYSE and NASD to identify “pattern day traders”.

Do you need extensive charting capability, extra research, etc. or just someone to take your orders?

There are a few “no-frill” brokers who basically just take your orders, but they are a dying breed. Due to increasing competition, most online brokers are having to add more and more “value-added” services to the mix to maintain clients. So this is becoming a non-issue.

Are you a trader or investor?

If you are a trader (but not a day trader) you may want to go for lower commissions and great fills. For longer-term holds, commissions and laser-sharp fills are less an issue.

There are a few other things to think about, but those are the major issues.

If you have a large account – at least $25,000 or above and intend to day trade, I would go with TradeStation. They have rock-bottom commissions, great charting services, a fantastic trading platform, hot trade setups during the day, etc. The downside? You pay around a hundred bucks a month for their trading platform. But the miniscule commissions more than make up for that for active traders.

Otherwise, I would go with Ameritrade or Charles Schwab. I have used both for many years and have had no trouble with either one. I have heard good things about Scottrade and Interactive Brokers as well, but have not personally used them.

I hope that helps in solving your own budget online stock trading issues.

Now, on to business.

The market is looking pretty bullish so far today, with the Dow up over 26 points and the NAS up over 11. The “cause of the day” for the enthusiasm seems to be a great earnings report from Goldman Sachs and falling long-term interest rates. What we want to see now is these gains holding up into the close of trading.

And here’s a stock having its own very bullish day…

Our stock for review today is DXPE – DXP Enterprises Inc.

DXPE is blasting out of a cup and handle base on volume 568% above normal. Stochastics are in the mid-range and angling up sharply.

I would suggest logging on to your budget online stock trading service and snagging some of DXPE!

Online Stock Trading Forum Open For Business…

Before I started talking about the stock market in general, I wanted to remind everyone of our online stock trading forum. We actually have two forums – one for Guests and one for Members. The REALLY juicy stuff is reserved for our Members, but I invite Guests to submit any questions you may have to our online stock trading forum for Guests.  Here is the link to that stock trading forum:

http://www.tradeyourwaytowealth.com/forum/

Now, on to business.

The market is continuing its bullish ways today, extending gains started with the big bounce last Friday. The market action will be interesting today – we need to see it hold up into the close to be convinced last Friday’s run was for real.

Actually, Friday’s move was pretty remarkable, considering the jobs report was so strong that it indicated at least two more interest rate increases from the Fed – and possibly a third.

According to today’s Investor’s Business Daily:

“Futures traders have fully priced a quarter-point rate hike on March 28 and see 94% odds of a May 10 move. But there’s a 20% chance of another hike on June 28, lifting the fed funds rate to 5.25%. The 10-year Treasury yield rose four basis points to 4.77%, 21-month closing high; the 2-year rose 1 basis point to 4.74%.”

I’m seeing some strong charts out there today on individual stocks. Here’s one now…

Our stock for review today is ITG – Investment Technology Group.

ITG is joining ISE and ICE as a strongly trending stock in the financial services sector. It’s close to new highs today on a 283% volume increase over normal.

ITG may just be the stock that provides the necessary technology your investment goals need!

The Truth About Paper Stock Trading

There was a big discussion this week in one of the chat rooms I visit about paper trading stocks.

In case you haven’t heard of paper trading, it simply means trading stocks on “paper”, in other words, pretending like you are actually trading stocks, but just keeping up with you r results on paper. Kind of like “practicing” to trade before you actually do it.

One of the chat room participants was vehemently defending paper trading, saying that of course it was a good thing, and gives one an idea of how stock trading works in the real world.  He seemed to imply you were an idiot if you didn’t agree with him.

I agree with that person, to a point.

I see the benefits of paper trading stocks – but just to get used to the “mechanics” of how trading works. One can practice stock trading online, even to the point of actually setting up an account with an Internet broker and entering all the information for the trade, stopping just short of pressing the key to execute the trade.

But I think our argumentative friend in the chat room went a little too far in his wholesale endorsement (and continued argument!) of stock paper trading.

I admit paper trading has benefits, up to a point. But there’s one element missing.

With no money on the line, and therefore no risk, you will never, ever be as interested in staying on top of the trade than when you have real money at risk. That’s just common sense.

So in paper trading, you may miss a day or two of following the trade, and perhaps come back a few days later to find your stock has cratered 23%!  In that case, you can breathe a sigh of relief and say to yourself, “Oh well, it’s only on paper.”

But I can say with all certainty you would feel vastly different if you had real money in the trade.

So the element missing in paper trading is the psychology of the trade. Not to mention commitment level!

In my opinion, a better way to handle this is to get enough education so you at least know how setting up a trade works, and what a great trade setup looks like to begin with, and then take just a little bit of money – money you’re not afraid of losing - and actually trade with it.

Think of your small pool of trading capital as an investment in your education. I guarantee you – that will be the best money you’ll ever spend in teaching yourself how the stock market really works!

There were quite a few choices to try out your stock paper trading this week.

The market ended the week on a high note, as investors cheered a strong February jobs report. All indexes were in the green, with the Dow up triple-digits – 104 points – and the NASDAQ up a nice 12 points. Small caps outperformed, with the S&P 600 up a solid 1.2% on Friday.

In my “Stock Fishing” service, I take five stocks and analyze the charts of the stocks, ranking them from my least favorite to my favorite chart of the night. I produce a video each and every day with that analysis.

Some of our esteemed Trade Your Way To Wealth Members have told me that the Stock Fishing videos contain the clearest, easiest to understand stock trading information they have ever received. In fact, one Member stated his 13 year-old home-schooled daughter is killing the market, mostly from just watching the videos and applying what she learned in the real world.

Her dad asked how she was beating the market week after week. I just love her answer.

“Well”, she said, “I just watch the charts of the stocks I own, and if they keep going up, I hold them. But if they start going down, I sell them and look for other stocks that are going up!”

Out of the mouths of babes!

But do you see what she’s doing? She’s doing exactly what some of the most successful “Stock Market Wizards” have been doing for decades.
She’s tapped into the almost surefire method for making money in the stock market, the Forex market, the futures market, the options market, or what have you.

The secret can be summed up in eight short words.

Want to know the secret? Here it is…

“Cut your losses and let your profits run.”

And that’s exactly the philosophy of our 13 year-old home-schooled sweetheart.

So remember those eight short words, keep that as your own trading philosophy, whether you are paper stock trading or doing the real thing, and you’ll be successful.

Looks Like I Was One Day Off On The Bounce…

Just as I finished typing the words “All indicators are telling me the market is due for a bounce” Thursday, and sent the email out to the world, the market promptly chose that exact time to crater to the downside. More proof the market will do what it needs to do to make you look foolish. Or so it seems.

Actually, I may be proven correct today. As I am typing these words (and holding my breath) the Dow is up over 75 points and the NAS 10. Hopefully I won’t put another jinx on the market like I may have done yesterday. We’ll see.

With the market strength, there a lots of good charts on good stocks today. Here’s one now…

Our stock for review today is TTM – Tata Motors Ltd.

TTM is an India-based automobile manufacturer whose stock has been on a “straight-up” trend for the better part of   two months now. That trend faltered in the past few days, but seems to be back on track now. It’s up today on volume 335% above normal.

Don’t say “Ta-Ta” to TTM – say “Hello!” for possible nice portfolio gains!

The Stock Market Is Due For A Bounce Here…

All indicators are telling me the market is due for a bounce. I think we’ve started that today.

Check out the candlestick charts of the DJIA and the NASDAQ. (DJIA and COMP in BigCharts.com). The DJIA is showing a bounce back from the 50-day EMA, just what you want to see in an uptrending market. And the NAS is showing what could turn out to be a reverse head-and-shoulders bottom.

Also, I look at dozens and dozens of stock charts after hours. And most charts I looked at last night either showed potential reversals right back to the upside for the stronger charts, or bounces off the 50-day EMA’s for the pullback charts.

Some exceptions to this rule are the charts of former market leaders, such as OXPS, PSYS, etc., which have broken down due to severe profit taking. But that may just mean rotation out of those stocks and into new potential leaders is necessary.

Here’s a potential new market leader right now…

Our stock for review today is DAKT – Daktronics Inc.

DAKT is showing a nice continuation today out of a high basing area, on volume 348% above normal.

This manufacturer of scoreboard and other electronic messaging displays may just “light up” your portfolio!

Google’s Gaffes And Goofs Getting The Goat Of The Market…

What’s up with Google?

Yet another gaffe from that mega-market value company is “getting the goat” of this market.

For some so-called “intelligent” folks, they are doing some goofy things recently. First it was the CFO spouting off how the company will need to find “new sources” of revenue in the near future. That one statement caused a 50-point drop in the stock in the next five minutes.

Now it seems they inadvertently posted an internal advertising revenue forecast on its web site. The stock is down over 11 points as I am typing these words.

Well, since GOOG is acting so GOOFY, let’s find a better-looking stock to buy today…

Our stock for review today is RACK – Rackable Systems Inc.

RACK has been on fire since blasting out of a flat basing area last November. It’s up over 4% today on volume 45% above normal.

With RACK, you just might “rack” up some nice gains for our portfolio!

Looks Like The Market Is Responding To Bond Yields…

Money is being siphoned out of the stock market and into the bond market.

The yield on the 10-year note jumped to 4.75% on Monday. That’s the highest figure since June 2004. Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions. So falling bond prices are taking a bite out of the stock market, as yields rise and provide a safer alternative to stocks.

Several things are weighing on the market right now other than rising bond yields. We have interest rate worries, oil prices and geopolitical concerns - with the situation in Iran.

Well, let’s see if the old saying “The market climbs a wall of worry” will hold true for us. Seems like we have a pretty good wall to climb right now.

Here’s a stock climbing its own wall right now – straight up!

Our stock for review today is KEYS – Keystone Automotive Industries, Inc.

KEYS has been trending up nicely for more than three months now. It’s moving up today on volume 189% above normal.

KEYS could be the “driver” to great gains for your portfolio!

What Goes Around, Comes Around…

The big news in the market today is AT & T buying out BellSouth for $67 billion.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t we make mandatory the breakup of AT & T a few years ago, since they were a “monopoly”? What’s different now than back then? Sheesh.

Methinks this is just a grand scheme to keep all these high-powered corporate M&A attorneys busy – let’s force the breakup of a huge company, wait a few years, then put the huge company back together again! Then start the breakup process all over again. What an idea! After all, people have short memories.

Oh well, what goes around, comes around.

Like one of the stocks being bought by the “Big Boys” today.

Our stock for review today is LIFC – LifeCell Corp.

LIFC is “coming back around” today – blasting out of a long handle of a cup and handle base - up 5.29% on volume 1,572% above normal.

I highly recommend you spark up your LIFE and SELL one of your laggard stocks to buy LIFC!

The Truth About Making Money Fast In The Stock Market

Most people think of the stock market as a vehicle to use for their long-term investment goals. And it can certainly be used for that, quite successfully.

Astute investors can easily make 7, 9, even 15% and more in the stock market year after year. If that’s all you want to accomplish, then you don’t need to read the rest of this article. Just go out and buy a good mutual fund.

But if you want to discover how the stock market can also be used to generate substantial short-term income, then you may want to continue reading.

You see, there are certain easily learned systems to make successful long-term investments in the stock market, say at least 40% to 80% a year (and sometimes much more!). We can certainly teach anyone who wants to learn how to do that. Even rank beginner investors or traders.

In fact, we prefer to work with rank beginners. Why is that?

Because rank beginners…

Don’t Know What Can’t Be Done In The Stock Market!

What do I mean by that statement?

Most would-be investors or traders have been told constantly that 7, 9, or 15% is the absolute maximum they can ever expect to make per year in the stock market on their own, without “expert” help. So whenever they hear someone spew out figures of 40% to 80% a year, their “scam” alert antennae go up, their head starts shaking “no”, and their ability to think a little out of the box shuts down.

But the truth is, making even 40% to 80% a year pales in comparison to what is really possible in the stock market.

I created a 38-page report called “Stock Market Miracle – How You Could Have Turned $200 Into $6.6 Million In Just One Year!”  It’s available free of charge to anyone who desires it. Just click on the “Stock Market Miracle” link on this page to sign up for the report.

In that report, I describe how that incredible feat was 100% actually doable in 2004, just investing in one stock each month, selling that stock at the end of the month, and buying another stock at the first of the next month. So you bought twelve stocks for the year. No frenetic, in-and-out trading – just twelve trades for the year.

And $200 could have become $6.6 million in just one year, with those twelve trades.

But there is even a better method of achieving speed wealth via the stock market than making just twelve trades a year.

I’ve discovered certain patterns – a “trade setup” if you will – that a stock will exhibit just before huge spikes in price. And I have developed a software scan that will traverse throughout the entire stock market, and hand me those trade setups on a silver platter.

These trade setups are amazing! They forecast enormous short-term price moves with uncanny accuracy. Double-digit percentage returns – returns that would make an investor ecstatic if made in an entire year – are usually seen in days – sometimes in the next day or two!

Some of these moves have even amazed me. I’ve picked quite a few of these DDPG’s – Double Digit Percentage Gainers – since the beginning of the year. They got to be so many, I asked my brother Tim to create a spreadsheet of them. I was thinking I might have found a dozen or so. Maybe twenty.

I was shocked when Tim gave me the total number of DDPG’s I selected for our Members since the beginning of the year. I asked him to filter it down a little. I asked him to tally the number of stocks that scored a double-digit percentage return in just one day – that’s at least a 10% return in one day.

As of this Thursday, the number of stocks I’ve selected that made our Members at least 10% in just one day is…

Forty!

This is the key to “speed wealth” in the stock market. If every stock selected has a good chance of scoring at least a 10% gain in just the next few days – how many of those do you need to start making a difference in your trading results? To create long-term wealth for you and you family? Two or three a month? How about twenty a month?

Anyway, that’s the real truth about what’s possible in the stock market.

If you want to find out how in the world this is doable, I advise you to join us here at Trade Your Way To Wealth as fast as humanly possible.

The Market Is Trying To Digest Both Good And Bad News Today…

Well, today the stock market was hit with both good news and bad news.

Let’s get the bad news out of the way first. Intel – the chip-making giant – issued a warning that revenues would be lower in the near future. That may have been no huge surprise to the market, but still some not so positive news. And the fear of increased interest rates still hangs over the market.

The good news? Lower energy prices and a drop in inflation pressures, as a key price index dropped to 64.8% from 67.2% in the previous month.

Here’s a stock having some good news today…

Our stock for review today is WEBX – Webex Communications Inc.

WEBX is powering up today in a continuation pattern, up 6.9% on volume 384% above normal.

I think WEBX would be EX-tra good for your portfolio!

Anyone Else Getting A Little Dizzy With This Market?

With this “up, down, up, down” market, I’m starting to get a little dizzy.

Bad news, good news, bad news, good news – what’s going on?

Today it’s the “Bad News Bears” in charge, with rising energy prices, mixed sales performances in the retail sector, and a rise in long tern interest rates putting a pall over the market. Not to mention a meeting of GOOG analysts, with lots of held breaths waiting the outcome of that meeting.

But the good news is – at least for Trade Your Way To Wealth Members – is that it really doesn’t matter that much what the overall market is doing – we have discovered a way to make money in the market each and every day!

And I’d be glad to tell any new Members how we do that!

Here’s one of those stocks not caring about a down market today…

Our stock for review today is HITT – Hittite Microwave Corp.

HITT is bouncing off its 50-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) area today, and is up 3.61% on volume 260% above normal.

I think HITT would be a “hit” for your portfolio!

… But Now March Is Here!

As I said before, if you don’t like the market – just wait a day.

All the so-called “bad news” from yesterday has evidently been totally forgotten about today, as all stock market indexes are on fire to the upside! We should see short-term new highs by the end of the day in all the major indexes at the current rate of increase.

Or maybe it’s just that we got through February relatively unscathed, with our portfolios intact. That’s good news, because March and April are historically good months for the stock market. And we are off to a good start!

Lots of great stocks making nice moves today. Here’s one now…

Our stock for review today is URGI – United Retail Group Inc.

URGI is reversing back strongly to the upside today after a little pullback, on volume 399% above normal.

I would “urge” you to buy URGI – could be a good thing for your portfolio!
