I've asked the webmistress to start the new thread. Here is the first post I have entered to give y'all an idea of what in the world I am talking about... This is a thread that will track trade ideas based on Point and Figure Charting (Piffing). Trade ideas will be taken daily and one or two selected to be added to the list. A running tab will be kept with price objectives, stop points, entry and exit levels. We will decide when to post percentage results, most likely monthly. I will buy in funny money, 100 shares of each stock, to keep tab of percentages and dollar gain. This is a good way to learn how to stick to a plan and manage trades using Point and Figure Charting.. How to enter a stock. Analyse a stock using Point and Figure Charting. Offer to the thread the stock symbol, the stop loss point, and the price objective. Fundamental information is always welcome. Stock entries for the day should be in by 7pm Pacific time. One or two stocks will be selected and the price objectives and entry points for the next day listed. Every night a current update of the trades will be listed with notes as to whether they are still actionable or too extended at that time. Also will be noted if the stocks were stopped out or if price objectives were met. Have fun everyone, this is not a contest but a group event!! I look forward to this Karmic Piffing trade event! Here is an example of what DWA does. I will be mirroring their format idea but I will not be mirroring their trade ideas, those will come from you all.
