What Are You Day Trading?

[PAYNORAKE]

To many people try to attempt to judge the whole market and do not spend enough time looking a 2 or 3 stocks and really trade them, i have sevral long terms holds these tend to be long terms punts traded on AIM, my key share that i trade are sbry, tsco and VOD, the swing can be small buy getting in and out at the right time is key.

My biggest profits came from PRTY shorted it during the fall and made a serious amount of cash.

I presume you are talking about new news about a stock when you refer to "opportunity"?

I am more referring to technical trades. eg. if a stock has been down 14 days in a row and its the first time in 20 years that has happened. All indicators are showing is is severly oversold. Would you sell it? Of course now. That would represent a high probabilty trade to buy some. Of course its not tha simple,..but it should give you a picture.

I flip Pennies (usually sub-pennies) that have current paid promotion. Grab 10% and on to the next one. Easy Game.

If you treat pennies like you do poker with proper bankroll management it is very easy to build a bank roll.

It´s very difficult to gain an advantage in daytrading. The markets are too effective. But if you get a feeling what the "big boys" will do in advance it might work. I´m in the forex makrket but more from a swing trading perspective.
