Tip for short-term traders: The place to start when looking for a trade is the daily chart. When you identify a potential trade, try taking a look at intra- day tick charts. Maverick utilized multiple time frames, such that any potential short-term trade will confirm itself on a 5-, 15-, and 30- minute chart. The technical indicators will reveal the optimal point of entry. Further, after you enter a position (on the long side), the stock should stay above the 10- and 20- period simple moving averages on a 30- minute chart. To view an example of the 5- and 15- minute charts for Microsoft for 1/13, go to the following link: URL: nsx.net The charts will show a confirmation of a long entry near the beginning of the day, both on the 5- and 15- minute charts. Microsoft main- tains support along the 10-period SMA on both charts, with a final violation on the downside below the 10-period SMA on the 5-minute chart confirming a short-term exit point. If you have any questions, I am more than happy to answer them, within the best of my ability. To close, I have found many other SI members who have a wealth of knowledge, based on their experience as market participants, who are very generous and willing to share their insights. (e.g. Ibexx). The screen capture is rather large, so you may have to pan to see everything. I will look into trying to reduce the resolution if I post images online again. Any advise on a utility which will reduce images without messing up the image quality and aspect ratios is appreciated. Happy Investing/Trading! Andie Lin
