It is hard not be distracted by the school of what is working now and focus on a few good strategies. I am more fundie myself so I will definitely be learning from your technical strategies.

One more question and I really hope it doesn't sound bad in any way (don't know how to say it in english), but would you share the setups do you trade? I actually read afraid to trade, chrisperruna, swing-trade-stocks, etc, and I printed the as reading material. Maybe you can join the list. thanks again. rgds jonathan

To answer your question directly, yes there are many books I would read and could apply to a trading plan. Off the top of my head here's a list: How to make money in stocks by William O'Neil Trader Vic by Victor Sperandeo Trade your way to financial freedom by Van K Tharp Trading for a living by Dr. Alexander Elder These's are four that come to mind. There's also a slew of great blogs with setups that I don't trade, but I think they are worth a look. Corey at http://blog.afraidtotrade.com uses a impulse buy and momentum convergence/divergence strategy. Marlyn at http://filteringwallstreet.blogspot.com/ has had success with a moving average crossover strategy that I think is worth consideration. Unfortunately that blog is no longer actively updated, but there is still alot of good information. One thing I would add is that I don't know specifically what is causing you to not trade as well as you would like, but I would be willing to bet it's more about psychology than an actual setup. Once you find a strategy that fits your personality and bankroll. Commit to it. Hi rafa!
