Because stock trading is not a game


The world of stock trading is worth exploring.  Stock trading for me is not day trading, and not buy and hold through ups and downs investing.  For me stock trading is swing trading, also called momentum trading.  I like to buy stocks when I think they'll have a run up for days or weeks, and sell them when I think that run has ended (or didn't happen).


I like to increase my odds of success by selecting stock from companies that are doing well, so I want simple ways to judge the fundamentals of companies.

There are many trading books available, and I suggest reading as many as you can find in your local library, or buying a few books (not in your library) that are heavily recommended (hint, read the Amazon.com user reviews).  I show some book ideas on the book page.

The trading setups are meant to show how to interpret various signals and indicators, and how to reach decisions. Screenshots come from TC2007. I recommend using a handful of indicators, learning the significance of each, and looking for situations where all (or most) of the indicators point to a good, high probability place to enter a trade. 

Enjoy this site, I hope you'll learn something!  You can reach me at howardmilano@stockraider.com
