Sorry, but this is fundamentally wrong, unless you consider every transaction as a zero-sum game (see above). Is producing a car & selling it a zero sum game?

A tight stop would have settled the problem... It's just another example how much easier stocks are to trade. You could have profitet increadibly by the rise and limited the risk by a tight stop. Too bad, it's simply not too common in stocks to ...

Thanks guys. But are we talking about drops like 20-30%, or total losses/100% drops? To this date, I couldnt find a stock that had fallen so fast that you weren't able to sell it at least for 40-50% loss. Even in specific stocks after 9-11 or ...

I really enjoy reading those posts, but i have to disappoint you. Although you think that you'll be able to crack the charts via candlestick and s/r, and even maybe indicators o.O in a few weeks, you'll discover very soon that candlesticks are not ...
