James: A few notes and thoughts: I am happy that the original list of the 13's will still be posted. In essence your saying to the thread 'ok here's the best and now here is the best of the best', in your opinion of course. I applaud your efforts. CAND might seem to be taking it's recent earnings a little tough, but considering the tide of the blue market seemed a bit bearish today (except for techs and especially hard on capital goods) I'm not surprised. I think it is just resting a bit on it's MA:207.95.154.130 BNYN looks a bit risky for my taste right now. CCUR as well, this chart shows alot of syncronicity among it's indicators and price movement. Unfortunately they are all turning down. I like the stock alot but it has not dealt with the 3.71 overhead very well so far:207.95.154.130 I'm quite confused over SYGR, I'd like to be in but can't seem to grasp any sort of comfort zone in it's charts. It strikes me as being very chaotic. .................................................................. One thing that I notice about my trading habits is that the more I learn, the more selective I become about the actual companies that I choose, but I must admit that I have at times been sloppy about my timing. I have been tinkering with the markets since I was 16 and only now have I begun tying up the loose end of my trading: TA. I realize that outperforming really means being able to be on the fringes of the trading bell curve. Getting the extra tenths of a % from each trade. I can equate it to a racecar. The driver sits and pushes the car to it's absolute maximum. We are dealing with 2 of the most (if not the most) competitive markets in the world. Each driver places a bias on a point in the distance (as it can be looked at also as a point in the future) and decides when to turn, brake and accelerate the car into that distance. The driver (trader) who is most efficent wins. What I'm saying is that the trader who races outperforms, and always keeping a perspective on trading, making sure that it always stays fun by keeping the element of it being a game alive lets me laugh off losses and laugh with gains. There are many here I thank who help teach me to drive. For quite a while now I have been seeing a momentum forming in my + gains, we are in an incredible bull market with much for those who work at it. IsaacF1
