Getting a market feel

Update: I have set up the group at Google groups and sent out invites to those who were interested.

Yesterday's chat was interesting with reader from Ukraine , Germany, Canada and USA joining in. Sometime during the week I will elaborate on some of the topics discussed. Here is a quick summary of what was discussed in bullet point form.

• Getting a market feel is combination of past tendencies, back testing and skill.
• Earning plays and how to trade them
• What do I think of day trading
• Why I am giving away secrets
• Are you going to start a newsletter
  
• If it works why hedge funds are not using it
• Risk management
• How to improve trading performance
• How to set up for data mining
• Some individual stock discussion about JOYG, HANS, NTRI and gold stocks
• Small caps or large caps
• Low priced shares or high priced shares
• IBD CANSLIM method
• The Boucher short term trading method

Next time we will have better technology. In the meanwhile I am going to act on one of the suggestion to have a online group by invitation to interact on some of these issues. I will be setting up a group on Google Groups to facilitate this. So if you are interested email me for invite.
