"Our Stock Trading Philosophy"

Every hour of every day that the stock markets are open there are many trading opportunities that can be taken advantage of. If we invest in just a few of these stocks that stand out above the rest, our gains can quickly add up.

Although without a doubt there is no such thing as a sure thing in the securities markets, there are certain swing trading and investing strategies that consistently work over and over again. There are also certain stock trading pitfalls that most traders never learn to control or eliminate.

(Avoid these trading errors, while learning the essential steps to trading correctly by signing up for our Free Stock Trading Course. The lessons included in this course apply to day trading, swing trading, and investing.)

Never get yourself involved psychologically in any one position, this can severely limit your online trading gains, needless to say it can also cause unnecessary losses.

Don't fight what works.

For example, if we can profit the most by day trading a specific stock, we will do it; although day trading is not the primary focus of this site. Some weeks we will make very few and possibly no trades at all, while in others we will make quite a few.

Know why you're buying each security.

Is there a reason for the stock to go higher? Is today really the best time to buy? How are the overall stock market conditions? Is this security being offered at a discount from what it should be worth?

How much do you expect to make on this stock? Is this stock better suited for swing trading or day trading? These and many other questions must be asked, AND answered before placing your online trading order.

We trade only when stock market trading conditions are favorable and our research shows us that the security has ample room to grow (or decrease in the case of Short sales or Put options). We know our targets, and also how much risk we're willing to take on each online stock trading opportunity.
