3/7/2009 12:49:53 AM Hi, I've tried to load FAZ and FAS and apply it to a symlist but I can't get it to show on my results page or see a chart? SKF and TWM work fine...something different about FAZ? Too new ? or I'm doing something wrong? Please let me know. Thanks. |

3/7/2009 3:29:35 AM karennma You might want to research Pivot Points. I've been trading FAZ using pivot points and I've made almost 5k in two days. I'm still a newbie trader but I've found that FAZ follows the pivots extremely well. Here's an example, 3-6-09...FAZ pivot was $95.95. My rule is to wait for green candle completely above pivot point or resistance level. When I say completely above that includes the wick. So on Friday I entered FAZ at about $98 with 100 shares. According to the pivot point calculations for support and resistance I knew that FAZ would not hit R until $107.72. With this in mind, I added shares until I had 400 total for a $100 average. From that point I just monitored the market and since it was tanking I felt confident that R1 would be hit at 107.72. I sold all 400 at about $109. The next stop for FAZ was supposed to be $115.95. I watched for a strong break off the R1 (which had now become support) and bought back in at 110. I rode that up to to about 112 and sold. The only reason I didn't hold was because i was doing all this trading at work. Anyway, I hope this information is helpful. I'm no expert though. Everything I know about trading up to this point has come from InvestorsUnderground, TRO posts, 13th's posts, GreenOnTheScreen, Technical Analysis by Brian Shannon and Day Trading for Dummies (that's where I was introduced to pivot points). Here's a good breakdown of how pivots are calculated. http://www.investopedia.com/articles/technical/04/041404.asp |
