As you may already know, I have a new project going on (mentioned in the Washington Post) where I am trying to raise $100k that will allow for

1) a live trading account 

2) continued benefit for orphans in Ukraine 

3) endow another top Wall Sreet Survivor to trade a live $100k account. 

I want to work for it rather than ask for donations so I started a blog where I publish my best stock trading ideas twice daily and I'm asking my WSS buddies to simply visit my blog.  Hopefully you'll click on a Google ad that interests you or use the banner links to make an online Christmas purchase.  When you get a chance, can you visit and help me reach this goal soon?  Thank you!

Thanks for being my buddy & happy trading!

I just read your article.  It's great.  I'm on vacation next week, so should have some time to work on giving this a try.  Thanks

Actually, I was looking at some of my stocks today to watch the crossing of the 50 and 200 day averages.  The problem is that none of my stocks are crossing the 50 is WAY below the 200.  So in this kind of market, how can you pick a stock with that criteria?  In my MSN screen with the criteria I have only one stock came up IKN, the chart doesn't look great.  I am rambling, not sure if my question makes sense or not to you.  But if it does, maybe I can try and understand your answer :)

I enjoyed your article.  When you analyze the 50 and 200 day average on the chart, do you use 1 yr typically or another time frame (obviously it has to be over 200 days :).  thanks, cyndi.

I am back from Mickey world, didn't have time for the water parks so next year I am going to stay longer.  What I noticed was alot of people.  The hotel clerks said this was the busiest Sept. in 10 years!!! (so tell me how bad is the economy!!)

Has your article been printed yet and where can I see it.  You have been doing well.  I finally turned upwards on my graph these last two days thanks to GS and JPM.  Hope all is well.

As a matter of fact, before going to bed Sunday night, I did add SKF to my portfolio.  On Monday, I figured the market would recapture some of its losses, so I sold SKF and the four other stocks I had profits in.  I bought DIG, which went up Tuesday and then sold it last night and bought, GG.  But, I still have the 6 original losers, which I guess I will keep and wait for the market to come back.  I have some cash for an occasional stock I think might go up.   However, I think that trying to get anything from charting with this kind of action is nearly impossible.  Am I totally wrong??
