Learn to "Short".

[/ QUOTE ]
I made a decision to not start shorting until I can confirm I can make a profit with normal trades. Once I show a profit from normal trading, then I will investigate shorting and set up a margin account.

You must set stop losses on Swing Trades... protection of capital is your number one priority!

I do use stops now, at the time I didn't that's why I lost a lot on that stock. This mistake should never happen again. Every trade I do now, I set up a stop loss.

What system are you using?

[/ QUOTE ]
I've come up with a something from a combination of things that I've read. CANSLIM, online stock screener ratings and a Swing Trading video from Oliver Velez. I can go into specifics if you want, although it seems like no one here ever really discusses their personal trading systems for whatever reasons.

Do you feel stressed out when playing poker too?

[/ QUOTE ]
No. As I learn more about trading, I'm starting to feel more comfortable. I'm also trying to find out if I really want to swing trade. It takes time at night, time at my real day job and in the morning when the market opens. I might just find some long term ETF investments and not spend so much time on it. I'm still a novice trying to figure this stuff out.
