When Trading—Be Careful What You Wish For

January 21st, 2010 · No Comments · Runaway Trading, Stock Trading

Ok. I relished Wednesday’s pullback in the market. It was just the opportunity I wanted to buy more shares of some stocks I wanted. But, and this is a big but, I certainly didn’t want or wish for the calamity that hit the market today.
And I feel there’s more heartache on the way tomorrow.
If you’ve [...]

Don’t You Just Love Market Meltdowns?

January 20th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Uncategorized

So long as you were not holding a bushel of stocks, today is a great day for traders since it opens the door to some easy money. When good, solid stocks crater because the overall market is falling, it’s as terrific times to start buying?
So what should you buy so you’re prepared for runup before [...]

Day Trading on the Road, away from it All

June 28th, 2009 · No Comments · Runaway Trading, Stock Trading

One of the nicest things about being on a road trip is that I can easily avoid the media circus surrounding the death of, well, you know who. I only wish somebody would cut me a check for, say, a penny a paragraph devoted to this freakish icon. I could easily quit my day trading [...]

This is a Sucker’s Market

June 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Runaway Trading, Stock Trading

I used to get miffed when the market slipped into the financial doldrums as it has lately. The recent rally and others like it  lull you into thinking how easy it can be (sometimes) to make money in the market, only to set you up for a crushing comeuppance. But over the years I’ve come [...]

OK. I Got My Market Pullback. Now, When Do I Get My Rally?

May 25th, 2009 · No Comments · Stock Trading

Buy low, sell high. That’s the ticket. Right? So I was given a half-loaf this past week as the Dow sank about 400 points. I’ve loaded up. Now I need the rally.
Actually, it was a pretty crappy week for trading and accordingly, I haven’t commented much. But now that I’m up to my eyeballs with [...]

Wynn’s Casino and a Few Thoughts about a Big Market Pullback

April 30th, 2009 · No Comments · Stock Trading

I’m worried. I admit I’m also a trifle paranoid too, because this market has been soaring too fast, too far, for my comfort. Anybody with any memory of market behavior knows this kind of non-stop, money-making, free-for-all can’t last forever. Just ask anybody who was trading, especially tech stocks, circa 2000.
Sooner or later, all bagholders know, the [...]
