    many of us do pizza on friday nights here in the usa too but mine is pesto pizza :D

    and looks like we got the best of GBR and OCUL didn't go back up and my LC stop loss wasn't triggered so that's a good thing too b/c looked like it was getting pretty close before i left earlier :)

    :eek: spoke too soon - OCUL just popped up from $6.55 to $6.85

    :):cool: appreciated that ...but isn't much my help but is how you listen... :)
    I only show a base and point on the right road then is up to the individual to walk on from there :)
    I told you that you got your "head on your shoulder" #* .... so you shouldn'thave much problem to become a good trader .
    .keep on walking, (learn)run only when you are solid on the ground (more profit but less loses)

    #* is an Italian expression +/- meaning >>> be an intelligent person, thoughtful and sensible, acting advisedly with rationality and balance after concretely examined the facts, without getting carried away by enthusiasm or wishful thinking inconclusive++++

    First, the time horizon of your approach is important to consider. Fundamental analysis is a long term investment strategy whereas technical analysis is considered far more of a short term methodology. By pricing on intrinsic values fundamental analysis is working towards the long-term value of a company, whereas by trading on market trends technical analysis is short-term focused.

    Second, you need to consider what your investment approach is. Are you an investor or a trader? Fundamental analysis is investing in companies and relying on their underlying value to drive your returns. Technical analysis is really a trading strategy where you are aiming to drive returns out of identified trends and opportunities.

    that is just to show to the newbie that first learn what you are or want to become as a trader swing-long-day trader because as you see there is different approach to it and so on ... but no one say that you shouldn't learn all but IMO then there is only your own strategy if you want to make some $$$$

    I only post this O/T as I regard it as an advice to the newbie buy maybe there should be open a proper thread regarding that....
    if your google research you will find a lot argument-info on those tasks

    'morning Fireopal I must say that I got PETX OCUL EBIO on my daily list plus I brought forward CYCC CRK still an eye on GBR GSV in case they move some ... second line NBY ZIOP AVXL and those I poste d above

    I will see if before the bell I cut some out still ... IMO if chasing too many we end up with nothing.... that is why I mention second line or in reserve etc... any way each to his/her own strategy as long as we make $$$ is good:)

    The strategy needs to earn your trust but you need to invest the time to understand it and follow it with discipline before committing.
    meditate that, meditate:)

    "Risk comes from not knowing what you 're doing" Warren Buffet
    "Successful investing is anticipating the anticipations of others." J:H:Keynes
    " The key to trading success is emotional discipline: If intelligence were the key, there would be a lot more people making money trading" Victor Sperandeo

    strangely enough that is what I think-do as well :D yes concentrate on tools but it is the "mind" that pull the trigger (psychology) by me ;):)
