Meet the posters / Introduce yourself

Hi!
I am Julien. I am fairly new in the stock market. . Invested around $10000 last year, and made a profit of $4000. I am willing to learn more and more stategies, fundamentals, technical analysis... . I also hope I could help others as well!
One of my interests is to improve my skills in spotting Pumps and Dumps, before the pump! Would you have any tips, recommendations on how to find these penny stocks opportunities? Websites, Forums, Newsletters. How do you do your research, and analysis?

Good trades everyone, and Willing to share trading ideas with you!

Julien

 

Hello, 1st post. Self employed, DIY'er learning trading. Thanks.

 

Hi y'all. I'm Ken. I'm a Texan. Been in real estate several years, but have decided to slowly scale back on that and get into trading. I don't know anything about the stock market, but I really want to. This place looks like a great source of info from experienced traders, so I hope to learn what I'm doing and then eventually be able to participate in the forums myself.

Re: Hello!

Hi folks,
I started trading in 1994 with penny stocks. I did not have any real success until I started trading blue chips. My bias is toward leveraged ETFs for short term trades. Occasionally I buy individual stocks. I rarely stay in a position for more than a few days. Most of my activity is day trading. I feel that buy and hold is dead and only active trading will beat the market averages.

I will try to post my activity and outlook, for the benefit of others as often as possible.

 

Hi I am Alexis and really excited to join this forum group. Excited also for the new software additions.

 

Just wanted to drop by and say hello, I have just joined. Looking forward to learning and discussing, as well as participating in the interesting challenges.

Cheers,
Michael

 

Hello everyone! This is a first for me to start dabbling in trading and so far I have found some good information. I hope to learn more from everyone here and looking forward to this new journey.

 

Hello Forum members, I am ShivaFan. I have been an active investor for a long time and am very pleased with the successes I have had. I use no software assistance in my analysis, even though I am a computer analyst of 35 years experience in IT. Other than Excel, my approach is to always be aware of all world events, politics, innovation, from science to disease, wars to water, crops and agra, all and everything is foundational to my next investment strategy and not just trending of a particular sector or individual stock or large verse mid verse small cap or a chart of peeks and lows and averages.

Not that I discount the later either.

I am an odd sort of gambler. There is an approach used. But perhaps there is an element of the gamble as well, after all 20 years ago I did enjoy the Racing Forum and the ponies on occasion and wasn't bad at it. But the market is by far the better game, though in no account do I consider it a game. It is very real, indeed.

My interests in investments have become more broad over the last decade, but I also have my bias, and I also buy and sell based on values and not just gains. I have made major investments in ETFs over the recent year+ and yes I am diversified and have a lot of mutual funds. But I buy individual stocks as well, and about a 25 percent bonds holding in my portfolios but to be honest I am ready to move out of bonds on the dime if interest rates even start to move up a little. I have been not very enthusiastic about small cap either of late with worries about the future there so this gives you an idea of my mindset. On individual stocks, I am moving right now on the down market into oil stocks against all negative trending since I believe a big surprise is coming and they will come back. I also buy gold mining operations in Africa (despite ebola), technology to an extent, and yes I bought BABA - sort of a perspective on individual stocks. I have huge gains on energy stocks, was early in on Tesla, and now lookiny at Lockheed Martin. I am buying big on CVX right now at $111 foreseeing a good comeback. I am looking forward to a Republican majority in the Senate, God hoping. I am a right-winger. I am moderately aggressive in investments and on occasion a gambler.

Hello every one.

I am not sure if I am in the right spot. but I would like to take a min to introduce myself.
I am 32. in my second marriage, with no children. I do not have a collage degree. Nor any special math training. I would 50+ hours a week trying to get a head and deceived I would fall for the penny stock pickers. And I did just that and I fell hard.

Not being one to take things laying down. I am looking to learn and attempt to beat the odds. My goal is to turn 300$ into 3,000. Once I do that I then want to build my self to 100,000. That is the short version I do have several smaller goals set up in between. I have spent some time on the net learning charts. And have a online account at options express.

I started with 150$ and currently only have about 18.00 left. I spent more on fees then what I lost.

I apologies in advance for any spelling or grammar issues. Writing has never been my strong point. But learning is.

Thank you all for reading and happy trading.

Hi everyone,

I'm a trader from the tiny sunny island of Singapore. I've been active in the Equities market for about a decade now. I have previously supported my community via Monthly Seminars, Weekly Mentoring sessions & daily Stock Picks.

A follower of mine attributed his trading gains of 720% for that year to the support I provided. You can find his attached Trading account for verification here:

as well as various other testimonies (mainly from Singaporeans) here:

I hope to make more friends around the world and learn from fellow traders globally.
