I have subscribed to the Investor's Business Daily in the past also. I think it is over rated for the price charged for it. I find the Money magazine offers a lot of information regarding stocks. With the resources available thru the Internet, I usually spend my time gathering information there. Yes, the charts are a great way to follow stock prices. For me. I like the Candlestick charts.  Good Luck on all your trades.

It's a great paper but very expensive. I look at it when I HAVE TIME ON MY HANDS AT THE LIBRARY.

A good paper that I would recommend would be the Barron's weekly newspaper.......I pick it up every Sunday, and it gives me not only a review of what happened last week, but a preview of the week to come, as well as providing depe insights into what is going on with not just the stock market as a whole, but with induvidual companies. I highly recommend this paper.

I think ibd is too expensive as well...thanks for the info on barrons weekly I'll check it out...

I find the most current info right on the web, and with no waiting for the delivery man.

The expense is why I subscribed to IBD for a short time! I will look at Barron's on next trip to library. Thank you! I also do spend much time on the web checking stocks out. I mainly use Yahoo. Also read Cramer and Motley Fool for insights. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

  I also subscribed for a while, but it really was too expensive. You can get so much of that info on the internet anymore, though I actually like sitting down and reading a newspaper it was too expensive. Same for Barrons.

  You can also go to most of your local libraries and read all of these newspapers for free, kind of nice to sit in there in a comfy chair and read them.

 In my neck of the woods, I can't even get "The Wall Street Journal" delivered! I get all my info off the net. I like that I can get the most current news.

so where do you "off the net" guys go for your insight.. im still green and trying to find good places to look at stocks etc..

The internet is the way to go.Always up to date.
