Hot Pick Of The Day

[ninner]

my money is all tied up right now anyways...however, i think it is worth keeping on a watch list for when it does break....and im betting it does at some point.....actually all of those 6 i mentioned arent ready for gains at this moment but could be winners in the near future

This baby is in a descending triangle: $18 target.


This may signal bad things for TOL for awhile.

I actually like EXCB better than most. I think it may still have some gas in the tank.

How do you scan for stocks?

Ninner,
How do you scan for stocks? On Fundamentals alone? Or do you look for stocks that act a certain way, and then check their fundamentals?

As you probably know, I am just checking out charts. But I think that I will eventually get around to FA and TA combined. That is, finding stocks that fundamentally are exciting, and then looking for a good entry via TA.

It's always best to know something about the fundamentals of the position and what's been going on with the stock even if you are a trader using primarily technical analysis.

[Runner]

What do you look for when it comes to FA? I’ve really never looked into this, heck in fact many times I could not even tell what the company does. I would be interested in learning a little about earnings stuff. What do some of you look at for FA?

[Runner]

Can someone give me the FA on this stock SAFM?

Here's a Buy for Tuesday

Ninner,
Buy this one and smile:

Nice volume dry up.

Earnings, Earnings, Earnings,

Can someone give me the FA on this stock SAFM?

Runner,
You'd be doing the MM thing: checking for earnings past, present, and future.
He gives you his formula. Like you, I live and die by the charts. I buy and sell on what the chart says on a daily basis, and I would like to start gathering fundamentals first, and then using the TA to get my entry.

As for the chicken farm stock, well, go to MSN.Money and punch in the symbol, and then click on fundamentals. It will list for you earnings forecast, etc. Or go to IBD.

[ninner]

well first i look at fundamentals...esp acclerated revenue growth....cus i feel if a compnay is showing ARG....then i think the big players will notice that and start building new positions or adding to new ones. I also look at the growth rate of a company ..i feel the big players like a company that is showing an increased growth rate....i also look at the what sector is it in....cus a hot sector will produce a large majority of winners...ie i like energy right now...anything in energy ie oil and nat gas im predicting will have a big second half. Now, my last 2 positions may not show this but i like big volume increases...that usuallly shows institutional buying and sometimes they takes weeks and months to buy their full positions. I didnt do this with grp and hydl just because im taking a risk that this may happan later on this summer and fall when i feel the big gains will be realized. I love reading Nicholas darvas book How i made 2000000 in the stock market....to me that is how u combine fundamentals with TA......trying to find that rising stock not keeps rising with little pauses!!!

[Runner]

I guess it would not hurt to at least look what the stock does.. I just can’t make any sense out of the fa stuff. Where would you start from this link?

Earnings
profit margin
peXearnings=tgt?
