Hi all, just discovered this thread. I'm currently learning to trade at a hedge fund with a January target date to start for real. Before this, I traded my own account for a year and a half. The few posts I've read seem insightful. I use tapereading and technicals for candidates. I don't know if I can add anything, but I and most other traders I've worked with use realtime charting of the S&P futures with trendlines to monitor the market. We have it up next to a chart of the dow to look for bullish/bearish diversions, considering the futures to be the leading indicator. It is helpful. Good luck to all of you.

I have traded mostly NYSE stocks, which are above the 90% relative strength mark as listed in IBD. Haven't done as much on NASDAQ, which is why I brought this up. DLJDirect won't put stops on OTC stocks. Needless to say, have to watch those stocks much more closely.
