Intraday Investments STALK LIST for Tuesday, June 5 2001

We are changing the format of the STALK LIST to present more information, and to organize the setups in a more useful fashion. Setups are now organized by sector. Each sector index is commented on along with the stocks that have setup within that sector. All setups are identified and described if ever so briefly. Soon we’ll have a detailed diagram/explanation for many setup criteria available to members on the private area of our website.

The recommend practice is to study each setup and program those you’re comfortable with into an alert program. Soon, we’ll also be email out pre-programmed alert program setup files to our Premium-level customers ­ so in the morning, as soon as each alert level is hit they’ll have an audible/on-screen alarm. Finding setups doesn’t get any easier or better than that, especially at 6:00 in the morning! Of course, we’ll also be analyzing each setup as it triggers in the room, making various judgement calls about if/when to enter depending upon how the overall market/sector action is playing out at that time.

These are likely scenarios for the sectors and we get them right a good deal of the time. But remember, each sector (and the market as a whole) can go wherever it pleases tomorrow. No honest person can rightly claim to know what the market -- or even an individual issue -- will do in advance with any real certainty beyond simply having a statistical edge through TA, news insights, and fundamental analysis. So always use stops and remember than in the market, anything can (and will) happen. Best sure to take advantage of “being nimble” by re-assessing the validity of all your setup criteria as the individual setups are triggered; don’t just jump in blindly.

Above all, be ready to take responsibility for all your trades. We would be the first to tell you that you won’t get very far by just trying to follow someone else’s setups blindly. You must *understand* the setups in order to make real progress!

Good trading, -Steve
