The earnings season starts

This week will officially kick off the earnings season. Around 18 companies are confirmed to release earnings this week. Alcoa , a component of S&P 500 will be the company in focus as it kicks off earnings season on Wednesday.

Other companies expected to release earnings this week are:

ISCA KED SHLM AA FDO NUHC PBG RODM RT WDFC COMS CAMP FCSX LWSN SGR TTO CREL INFY ZEP.

So far there have not been many earnings warnings. Which indicates there will be lot of earnings surprises. Earnings season offers number of profit opportunities as market reacts to earnings news and in many cases new stocks get noticed during the earnings season due to their earnings.

Pradeep,

What attracted me most was your take on trading - "most important starting point for successful trading is methodology and methodology trumps markets". I have learned a lot and greatly benefited in all aspects of trading since joining the member's only site - specifically:

1. Market breadth (market monitor) : Your market monitor method to identify when to enter the market for trading and when to sit in the sidelines. Along with market monitor, your explanation on other important market breadth indicators has helped me not only in trading, but also take wise decisions in other investment accounts (eg. IRA funds).

2. Equity selection (momentum / growth / event catalyst) : Your input on how to select equities based on momentum / growth /event catalyst has helped me to identify key stocks that are breaking out. Also valuable was your input on identifying low risk areas for entry into such stocks.

3. Risk management (position sizing / initial stop / exit) : Risk management is a key part of successful trading. Here again your input on position sizing, initial stop and exit strategies was extremely valuable.

I also liked the following about your member's only service:
a.) Shortened learning time about market with your daily description about Market using Market Monitor (daily explanation of how to make the market monitor talk to you)
b.) No black-box approach (You explain everything in very plain, easy to understand language, no hidden stuff!)
c.) Your response to members questions (email / comments section questions) has been excellent. You have responded to my every email and comments section in question and that too in a timely manner.
d.) Your reviews about many trading books and how to make good use of / incorporate those strategies in our trading

In short, I believe your member's only site is excellent, full of information. I have been with your member's only site for almost two years and will be a member for coming years as well. There is no substitute for your member's only site, your experience and service to members. You are truly an "easy" guru!

Thanks,
sp

I have been trading the stock market for over 20 years with varying degree of success. Some years I made tons of money and in others I lost plenty. I always liked technical analysis and most of my buys were based on break outs on high volume. Some of them worked and many did not. Mostly because my timing of the market was wrong and the reason for the buying (and selling) was more a matter of chance than having solid logic behind it.

Over the years I have subscribed to various services and none of them was satisfactory. I kept switching from one to another looking for the golden fleece. I have been Stockbee member since October 2007. Your site is the first one to provide me with clear and concise method to time and execute trades.Your market timing system (Market Monitor) and your explanation and guidance in developing systematic trading method is more accurate and better than all. And best of all, you are not using a black box analysis, everything you do and the logic behind is in the open.

Since I started following things I learned on your site in my trading, instead of jumping all over the place like I used to do previously , now I have a precise method to focus on and the bottom line shows it. Thanks Stockbee. Frankly, I think you charge too little.

Dear Pradeep -

I have been a member of your blog for several months now. I have been trading and have experimented with many things. However, I have found your approach to be most sensible.

Specifically -

A) Your Market Monitor framework for market timing is very robust. I have gone back and studied market monitor signals in last couple of years (I am still studying them in fact). This framework gives very good signals ahead of major market turns. Moreover, this framework gives signals in long and short time time frames which allows you to trade accordingly. Example - market monitor gave a "get out of the market" signal on 09/09/08 last year and "get in the market" signal on 03/18/09 this year

B) You also put your comments on your interpretation of Market Monitor signals that is very useful for members because its not just the numbers but the meaning of these numbers which is of importance

C) You approach to find individual stock ideas with strong stop loss discipline is keeping your members out of trouble. And the beauty is, you combine your market monitor signals with individual stock ideas so you can go on offense or defense accordingly

D) Also, your responsiveness. I have seen you answer EVERY question from the members. You have all kinds of members and you answer all of their questions and that brings them up to speed with your trading style

To sum it up, I don't think there is a comparable product / service available in the market place that offers the kind of value that you offer. Thank you so much Pradeep for your work and your offering.

Dear Pradeep,

I have been a member of the Stock Bee Blog for over a year now. I have been trading stocks for the past 10 years and was a broker with TD Ameritrade. I can honestly say that I have learned more from you and your blog in the past year than I learned in the past 10 years trading on my own. I have subscribed to numerous newsletters, blogs, and trading services over the past 10 years. None of them even come close to the methods you have developed.

In my opinion, your methods are truly revolutionary! In fact, of all the trading methods I have ever tried, only your methods have been significantly profitable. Your customer service to your members is absolutely first class! You have responded to every single e-mail that I have ever sent you and have done so in a timely manner.

Becoming a Stock Bee member has been the best decision I have made in my trading career. Thank you Pradeep!”
