For me its in the indicators...RSI,Slow stochs and DMI lines are all good ones to use...draw some lines on the charts and find support and resis areas

Slow Stochastics for me.I&#x27;m an amateur but this has been a good indicator for me in terms of when a stock is overbought or oversold.

Combine that with the RSI Dther85..use a value setting of 14,0,0

You guys should check out forex..market open 24 hrs a day 5.5 days a week and the charts use all the same indicators..practice account are free and when youre ready you can open a mini account for as little as $350..

I dollar cost average.  Start out with 105 shares of a stock.  If it falls 10 or 15% than i buy more not sell.  Keep trading certain stocks so you are familiar with them i do allright.  Its like the guy above said you want to buy low and sell high, so if a stock drops 10 or 15 pct it is a good time to buy more most of the time not sell it.
