SWI (SWING): 2-7 days INT: Intermediate term position 8 days to several months. Open Price: price paid on opening
long position or price sold on short position. Bold notes on table above represent changes from previous day.
Current positions are highlighted in yellow. Green colored lines are next probable positions to consider. Red, take action
or watch closely, no color usually were stocks just finished trading or are watching. Realize that opinions about stock
ideas can be changed at a moment’s notice during any trading day without any warning!
IMPORTANT: The notes in this stock list is how I have been writing notes to myself about stocks for 17 years. They are general
guidelines as to how I am approaching a particular stock and conditions may change during the next trading day that ay cause a
change in opinion before the next evening report is written.
Remember not to get too heavy in one sector and gradually move in because it is unrealistic to think we get the exact bottom. We want
to gradually move into this sector and eventually build full size long positions in them that may be swing trades lasting for days or
intermediate trades lasting weeks.
If you spend too much money too quickly, you will run out of ammunition, then get emotionally stressed when stocks are going against
you. If you get too leveraged you may be forced to sell at a loss because you are racking up losses at twice as fast if you are margined
2 to 1and then miss the big move up we are looking for in oil and gas stocks.
Advice: Don’t get leveraged in any one position long or short. Spread your money out between a variety of stocks and the higher
amount of money you are working with, the smaller percentage of money you can afford to trade in one stock position. The main
reasons why people fail to make money in stocks consistently (according to Mitch King):
1. They are too emotional, controlled by greed and fear.
2. Not using a high probability technique to buy and sell (or no technique at all!)
3. Position size is too big in one stock relative to total account value (which is related to #1 above).Not patient or willing to spend enough time to
learn a good trading technique.
4. Expectations are unrealistic to make large amounts of money in a short time period and at the same time violating #1, 2, 3 or 4 above.
Thoughts: Best odds only, be decisive, aggressive, mentally flexible, stay in position size, don’t overtrade and wait a little longer to buy
and wait a little longer to sell. You will find that will make you more money on your trades. Trade what you see, not what you hope for.
Intermediate and swing trades are really important to have trailing stop losses set.
Don’t trade unless the setup is there for you, then use the charts to tell you when the odds are heavily in your favor. Don’t force
anything to work for you, let the setups develop and then take advantage of that. Be patient. Stay in position sizes without letting any
intraday trade represent no more than 10-15% of your total account value. As you build your account, your position size percentage
should get smaller and smaller to lower your risk.
Stop losses: Many people ask about stop losses on intraday trading and my response is that the stops should be wider because they
are stops “just in case” a disaster news event hits the stock. When you follow the technical indicators as I show you on the intraday
scalping tutorials, rarely will a stop loss be hit. The indicators can be used with uncanny accuracy as a forecasting tool so don’t set
your stop losses on the intraday scalping too tight.
Anyone setting tight stops while scalping will consistently lose money on scalping because stocks move around a lot even though they
follow the technical indicators.
Stop losses on swing and intermediate term trades can be sent anywhere from 5-7-10% and trailing stop losses are best.
More thoughts: Keep steady, calm, decisive, aggressive. Have no fear and no greed. Keep looking at what to be doing next in a calm
manner. Don’t focus on the past or beat yourself up what you did or didn’t do or what you should have done. Just keep playing the
next shot, which in this business your next shot could be just sitting on the sideline.
If you have been uncomfortable shorting stocks, which most people are, try to learn this technique, it will be a useful tool in the coming
years.
When several stocks from the same sector are listed, like from the housing industry or steel industry for example, don’t short all of them
unless you are well diversified and it represents a small percentage of your total stock account (in that same account).

15. Also note that we are in what Martin Pring, PhD explains in his book The All-Season Investor, the business cycles and which one is
good for various financial investments. He would describe that we are in Stage II of the business cycle which is positive for bonds and
stocks but negative for commodities. Sometime in late 2011, we probably approach Stage 3 business cycle with rising inflation and
interest rates, which are usually bad for stocks and bonds.
A couple of technical analysis books you should consider:
Technical Analysis Explained, Martin Pring.
Technical Analysis from A to Z, Achelis
Technical Analysis for the Financial Markets, John Murphy.
Put the odds in your favor and have a great day!
