Fellow Traders, this stuff is important!
"Too many traders enter a trade without any idea of when they will get out. Not only should we have a profit exit set, but we should also have a loss target set. With some strategies, we might be willing to risk the entire capital used, while others we might have a mental stop loss in place. Regardless of where your targets reside, it is important to have them ahead of entering the trade. This is because emotion will dominate our trading decisions if we don’t have an idea of what to do ahead of time."

LOL! The guy got himself a $3.00 calculator and has figured out how to use it.
Look, every newbie I know has 3 percented himself to riches beyond the dreams of averice. EVERYBODY does that on paper, and nobody does it in the market.
Don't worry, I try to only post informaton folks can use.
What you don't state and what is totally true, just like in war the best laid plans fall appart on the first firefight, so all well laid out daydreams fall appart after one buys the first stock.
What you don't tell folks is that they need to have their plan laid out and written down before they pull the trigger.
In fact you don't have a plan. You just posted a dream.
Dreams are nice and they have their place, but not in stock trading.
They have to know why they are buying and when they will sell.
They have to know that emotions play a huge and deadly role in trading.
They have to know that doubt, greed and fear can be mitigated if you have a well laid-out, thoroughly paper-traded plan in front of you.
I know about what stocks I am going to buy because I post my picks on my website.

I know when I will sell because I write down the stop loss number right next to the purchase price.
I either get out fairly quickly or I move that stop loss up with the rising price. Eventually I will get stopped out and that will complete the trade.
So, to me it's a matter of going by the numbers.
Yes, I still get emotional but I control that by forcing myself to stay within my own rules.

Yo Avery
I just disenrolled myself from the yahoo.com stockfetcher!!(aka MUDDY Group). Now officially THE AVERY GROUP!!
Got tired of reading your dribble!! Especially the part where you say it is not critical WHERE YOU ENTER A TRADE!!
That is BY FAR,THE MOST IMPORTANT PART!! BAR NONE!! You can quote all of the studies you want, that exists are more important, but the REAL WORLD FACT IS, IF YOU ENTER IN AN UPTREND, YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHANCE TO TAKE A PROFIT.
If you enter in a downtrend, you have to wait to take a profit, IF AT ALL!! Besides your only batting 50%!!
You drove off MUDDY, sounds like your doing a GREAT JOB!!
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!
