Mike: I go pretty good, with about 150k; but, I started 5 1/2 years ago with 15k [that gave me enough capital to buy 200 shs. of a $70 stk.]. I do like Cooper's theory to pick just one stk. you like and ride it. The only newsletter that I subscribe to is Pristine [you can find them at pristine.com]; as, like irby, I kind of like to find my own. Sometimes it's not too difficult, others, impossible. Like Mon. I got stopped out 4 times, to the tune of 8k. But, on Tues., I caught 1,000 shs. of DELL at 75 (with a stop at 73 1/2 (the days low)) and rode it to 89 1/2, for 14.5k. All in all not a bad beginning! If I can be of any further assistance, send me a kite. Also, keep watching this site, it's excellent. GeneM

Hi Mike, One of the services that I find extremely helpful is Wall Street City. wallstreetcity.com There are a number of membership options and the free services aren't bad either. They do have a number of newsletters available online as well, although some are fee based. Something that is quite novel about the site (although not appropriate for day traders) is their java ticker which allows you to create a portfolio and then displays only your stocks on the ticker. I am a fee based member. I use Proscan and Telescan for stock screening and have been pretty happy with the performance. I can't think of a single time that the site locked me up. They have excellent fundamentals on virtually every company, hyperlinks allow you to explore various details from "Zacks earnings Estimates" to "Macro World" Price forecasting. They also have some very good technical analysis tools and recently added a java (delayed unless you order real time) charting feature which allows you to plot some of the more important technical analysis indicators including PTR, RSI, and of course moving averages and update them dynamically. It's an excellent site for one stop shopping and I have been very pleased with everything there. You may want to take a look at it, I believe they also offer a free trial. PS: Although it probably sounds like it, I am NOT affiliated with Wall Street City :)
