I’m not one to believe that the comeback is done and over with in Netflix (NFLX). They’ve done an excellent job of creating original content and building new subscriber loyalty with their exclusive shows that finally allows consumers to justify their $7.99/month purchase.  With Netflix earnings from yesterday missing, it appears to me to

Of course today’s news isn’t what happens while the market is open, but what happens shortly after it closes – Apple’s (AAPL) earnings report.  Its influence on the market has dramatically lessened over the past year as the stock price has dropped from the $700’s to the low $400’s. But still its ability to move

Most traders want to be right at least 50% of the time, to feel good about their trading performance. That assumes that they manage the losses well and don’t let them get out of hand.  Oscar (@fuinhaz) managed to trade 5 out of 6 stocks while keeping the one stock he traded for a loss,

If you’ve held Baidu (BIDU) for much of or frankly any part of July, you have a nice chunk of cast in return for spotting this stock. If you’ve shorted it before this point…Yikes! you are probably regretting it big time.  Nonetheless, Baidu (BIDU) despite its incredible rise higher, is hitting some familiar ground

I was long Google (GOOG) from the end of June when I got long on a pullback that held key support and got in at $872.15. Yesterday I sold that position at $920.30 for a nice 5.5% gain.  But why sell so soon?  Look no further than the chart I posted below for a

I’m huge on using multiple time frames for justifying positions in trades and also in how I manage them. There are so many things that can be seen on the weekly but not on the daily, and items on the monthly charts that can’t be seen on the weekly charts and vice versa.  As a

June resulted in a great month for my swing-trading. Despite a month where most traders took devastating losses, I managed to push forward with consistent profits in my trading.  You see, the key isn't picking the "right stocks", instead the skill lies in how the stocks that are picked, are "rightly" managed.  If you don't

I’ve made some nice coin off of Amazon.com (AMZN) over the past year. However, if there ever was a time to sell the stock, right now is the time.  The LAST 7 TIMES we have seen the stock sell-off dramatically for at least 2-3 weeks every time the weekly chart of AMZN has broken hard
