Strictly Buy and Sell Set Ups

MY OBJECTIVE FOR THIS MESSAGE BOARD

In the world of sports, it's the job of the general manager to put together a team where the members complement each other's talents and abilities. The better the team talent complements each other, the better the odds of fielding a winning team.

When a team has the perfect set up of complementing players, it doesn't always mean they will win a championship. It does mean that the odds favor them of having a winning record year in and year out.

In the game of investing, technicians look for the indicators that complement each other to improve the odds of producing a winning record. They won't win every game but, like the world of sports, your wins should outweigh your losses when you put together a team whose indicators complement each other.

My objective here is to present chart set ups that over time, produce winning records. The stocks presented in the "STOCKS TO WATCH" messages are presented to show the technical set ups for buy and sell decisions. It's those set ups that one should look for in the stocks they are interested in.

It is my hope that we not only learn how to gather a group of complementing indicators, but a group of complementing traders and investors as well. It is my hope that we learn from each other and perhaps discover the similarity of lessons learned, learn from the experiences we share and come to a conclusion on how to put a winning team or trade together.

For those who wish to find an excellent charting service and stock screening platform, I highly recommend TC2000 or TCNet.

TC2000 is limited as to the options available and their data is delayed. However, for those who strictly go on end of day data, this service will suffice.

TCNet offers real time data, including intra day charts. They offer real time chat with professional traders and offer buy and sell plays daily. You can join a club, they have over a hundred, that share the same goals and objectives as you. I happen to belong to a club called First Wave and it is the most professional chat group I have experienced to date. They have live chart shows 4-5 times a week and they have CD's you can purchase to show you how to make money in an up and down market. I highly recommend that anyone joining TCNet, join the First Wave Club at your earliest convienence. I don't make a nickel off this. I have checked out many sites over the last 6 years and this one impresses me the most.

Here is the site to TCNet:
