Managing my Blogroll

I’ve put this off for a long time, but networking is critical to the success of a blog. I’m in the process of adding sites to my blogroll. The thing is, I want to add sites that I actually read. Like most of us, I’m pressed for time. I don’t want to waste your time with a list of blogs just to have one.

So, for the foreseeable future I’ll be adding blogs that I think are relevant, interesting, and/or just cool. I’ll also see if I can separate them by some kind of category.

To start things off, I’m adding stocktradingtogo.com. STTG has daily articles about trading and various financial topics as well as site reviews. I check this one daily. Blain does a good job updating the blog consistently and his articles are always interesting. His stock market education section is well developed and contains a slew of useful articles for the new investor as well as the more experienced trader who just needs a reference.

Definitely a favorite blog of mine is afraidtotrade.com. Corey’s blog is one of my daily stops. Market commentary is insightful. His articles about trading and fear are particularly useful to me. Corey’s strategies and the use of momentum is intriguing to say the least. I’ve so far resisted the temptation to add them to my own, but if you’re interested in using MACD and momentum check out Corey’s blog.

Toni Hansen is a well known technical analyst and stock market educator. Several years ago, I was a subscriber to Trading from Mainstreet and it changed my trading. Trading is not a sure thing by any means. Every day is a battle not only with the market, but your own emotions. I credit Toni and TFMS with introducing me to consistency. Ah, wonderful consistency. It’s a nice place to be. I still have ups and downs for sure, but I’ve finally learned how to be consistent. Toni has a blog that I visit daily. Her market commentary is exceptional in its clarity. I swear if I only started out traded phoenix and avalanches…if you are new or just need a new perspective, go visit Toni’s blog.

Ok, three’s enough for this morning, I need to start my prep for today’s session. Although I genuinely don’t trade on Friday’s, I still need to show up. If you want me to check out your blog and be added to my blogroll, just post a comment. Thanks!

    Jonathan,

    Thank you for the blogroll addition and positive mention. I look forward to reading through your site.

    Why resist temptation to add a few momentum trading strategies or ideas? :)

    The “Impulse Buy” and “Impulse Sell” are probably the easiest to understand, but I do a lot of trading with divergences as well.

    I think you have a good concept here and let me know if I can be of assistance in any way.

    Corey

    Dear Sirs,
    I am Jason Lee and I just signed up. I didn’t find relevant
    thread to post this, and my
    apologies, if I posted inappropriately,
    moderators, please move this post accordingly.
    About this time last
    year, I stumbled upon information about
    investment programs, that are rarely published on
    official investment resources. The rates of investment
    return, which one could
    receive by participating in such
    funds, looked
    extremely high at
    first, but as I learned more feedbacks about them, I joined some too. These days, I consider
    myself to be the successful
    investor. To
    share my findings, I
    set up the blog, which
    provides detailed information
    about online investing. To see my
    blog, follow this URL. I would be happy to receive
    everyone’s comments.
