  • Can You Time And Pick Stocks (Or Options) Using A Reliable System? 1 comment
    Apr 2, 2012 12:14 PM
    This, of course, is the big question. Even if you know the best companies in which to invest, or the best option positions, it all comes down to a matter of timing trades -- both entry and exit -- to define profitable trades.

    Many a trader has had the right rationale and company in mind, but has not been able to time trades with enough accuracy to make any system work.

    One possibility is based on using the same principles behind the Google model to select stocks. This gives on an edge on the market if it works, and it may be worth a look to see for yourself. The best way to take a look is to attend a Webinar on Thursday, April 5. (at 9 p.m. ET)

    The "Market Timer Algorithm" is the basis for this system, which is promoted as having an exceptionally high success rate. Market Tamer promises attendees will learn:

    · How to gain access to an almost endless supply of ONLY "high-expectancy" stock picks, right at your fingertips, every single trading day

    · How to INSTANTLY solve the #1 problem that 99% of retail traders face that is preventing them from breaking through to financial greatness

    · How to make massive gains trading stocks and options when everyone else is losing their shirts…

    · How to leverage the "power of the collective" to gain an unfair advantage trading stocks or options

    · Finally, you'll learn that it is ABSOLUTELY possible to forecast major market trends with uncanny accuracy…if you have the right tools!

    It happens this Thursday, April 5th at 9:00 pm ET (6:00 pm PT). Register at Webinar

    Many traders today focus as much on options as on stock timing. This growing market opens up many possibilities incorporating leverage and swing trading techniques. The big secret to picking options involves tracking of volatility. Because implied volatility tends to change quickly especially as expiration approaches, any method involving tracking of volatility makes great sense. Check it out for yourself at

    The elusive thing for every trader is not picking the best stock (or option) but timing both entry and exit.

  • The two most interesting are GLD and SLV ... they have paused but I would'nt be surprised to see another strong upward move in either.

  • I am enjoying a variety of synthetic stock positions. Options truly do remove uncertainty in volatile markets while managing market risks.

  • GLD and SLV - these are hot even for long calls. When will the rise stop? Probably not while the federal budget problems remains in the red
