IIC's Winners Watchlists

[skiracer]

Doug,
Remember when IBD first started the 100 . People thought this was what they'd always dreamed of. Just buy the top 10 and how could you lose. I'll bet the IBD top 10 performance then was quite a bit different then compared to the last 2 years. You were on the IBD forums then. Lots of posters followed the top 10 like a religion.

In those days I was a subsciber to their premium services. I had bought into the cup and handle thing and made some money. The best thing that I got for whatever money that I spent for their subscription over 4 or 5 years was that I realized what you just said was true. If you waited for the stocks to get to the breakout point for an entry two things were almost sure things if you hadn't bought the breakout right at the exact best moment. The first being that you had just bought a stock that was past the best point for an entry and 2nd the chances of it failing were as high or higher than it continuing on up.
After alot of thought and study I realized that buying them when they were beginning to come off the bottom of the cup base and beginning to make the right side of their cups was the best time to make an entry. The best risk vs reward point is right there at that time. Once I realized that it didn't take long for me to let the subscription expire and I never renewed again.
That led me to explore deeper into technical analysis and many other chart patterns, but the one where I catch them coming of that bottom and beginning to make the right side became my favorite and the one that I have made the most money from over the past few years. It cost me alot of money over the years to subscribe to them but it was worth it in learning that IBD and O'Neil were bullshit.

Hey IIC do you have any good books you could reccomend for day trading? How did you learn to make these trades? Besides practice... because obviously you have a lot of practice!

I've only read one book on Day Trading...A Beginner's Guide to Day Trading Online by Toni Turner...I've met her before and it was so-so...Mostly tho I just stole ideas from others and developed my own systems(notice plural) for day trading

Jerry, try "Secrets of the Underground Trader." It's a real eye opener. Toni Turner is good too, as Doug says. (All of her books are good, IMHO.)
