9/22/2004 7:14:14 PM If insiders are buying shares in their own companies, they usually know something that normal investors do not. They buy because they see a merger, acquisition or great earnings ahead or simply because they think their stock is undervalued. Peter Lynch, the former manager of the Magellan Fund, has noted that insiders might sell their shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one: they think the price will rise. That is why I really believe that following the insiders path can lead you to enormous profits in the stock market.

10/6/2004 6:55:56 AM Preserving Captiol - 10% / 10% rule I can’t stress enough to preserve your capital so you can live to trade another day. This is one of the most important rules in trading. I’ve put it down in black and white in an example below so you can see for yourself how important this rule is. Please take this into consideration when trading; it will save you every time. I want to show you the importance of controlling your trades. By this I mean letting your winners run and cutting your losses immediately. In the following example, you’ll see how I can lose 4 out of 5 trades and still make money. I’ll use HEC as an example of our 1 winning trade. I bought that stock at .52. It proceeded up to .98 before coming back down. If I had sold at .98 I would have made 88% but I know we can’t always sell at the high so I’ll use a 50% profit in my example just to be more realistic. I’ll also use round numbers just to make it easier to see. $10,000 cash position to start Make 5 trades with $2,000 (10%) in each Buy $2,000 HEC at .50 = 4,000 shares, Sell at .75 = $3,000 for 50% gain Buy $2,000 XYZ at .50 = 4,000 shares, Sell at .45 = $1,800 for 10% loss Buy $2,000 YXZ at .50 = 4,000 shares, Sell at .45 = $1,800 for 10% loss Buy $2,000 ZXY at .50 = 4,000 shares, Sell at .45 = $1,800 for 10% loss Buy $2,000 YZX at .50 = 4,000 shares, Sell at .45 = $1,800 for 10% loss You’ve just lost 4 out of 5 trades but your bottom line is still 2% ahead. Your balance is now $10,200, with commissions you’ll probably break even. I’m showing you this example so you can see, even if you are only right 20% of the time, you won’t lose your money if you maintain discipline and follow the 10% / 10% rules. That is of course, no more than 10% in any one position and no more than 10% loss on a bad trade. The 2nd rule is always the hardest and even I sometimes still fail on this one. But there is absolutely no excuse to fail on the first rule. The fastest way to the poor house is putting all your eggs in one basket and having the trade go bad on you. This will end your quest for financial freedom faster than you can say “oh no, what did I just do with my hard earned money?” The above example is very conservative because we have had many stocks that have made way above the 50% figures used and not so many losing trades of 10% or more. We will be right more than we are wrong and I’m sure we can get 6 out of 10 trades right or even as much as 7 out of 10 for a 70% win/lose ratio. In the above example, remember, we only have to be right 2 out of every 10 trades. So if you think you can follow the disciplines and be right more then 20% of the time, how can you not make money in this market? It works for any priced stock. You can start with 50K and buy 100 shares of a $100.00 stock. Be right once and have the one winner go up to $150.00 a share and you could sell the other 4 for $90.00, 10% loss and still come out ahead. No matter what price you pay, just stick to the rule. This is a big reason why my Trade Record is up 118% in 5 months. I follow the rules for the most part. I trade my money as if it was yours and I do not want you to lose your money. Please follow these simple rules and you will be around trading and making money for a long, long time. One other favor I would like you to do is, print this commentary out and put it somewhere near your computer. Look at it when your trade falls below the 10% loss rule. Maybe it will help you remember that if you stick to the rule, you will make money. In short, 1. No more then 10% of your capital in any one position, and 2. Cut your losers to no more then 10% loss.

Grumpus, is a highly motivated trader, with special trading skills, he has taken $10,000 at the Virtual Stock Exhange and in a short time, turned that into a whopping $114,000 portfolio last time I checked. I believe he has a personal website where he posts his daily pics, so if you contact him, he can give you that. TxTrapper ------------------- |

This proprietary screen reveals stocks currently experiencing unusually heavy buying and selling. This idea-generating list is continuously updated throughout the market session as new stocks experience unusual trading. Unusual trading volume can signal heavy activity by institutional investors (pension and mutual funds, banks, insurance companies, corporations and government organizations). A stock moving up in price on higher than normal volume indicates strong buying conviction that could carry the stock even higher. A stock headed lower on big volume increases could signal strong selling pressure and an emerging downward trend. To determine unusual activity we measure every stock's current trading volume. Each stock's current volume is then compared to its normal trading by this time in the market session, based on the last 50 trading days. The percentage change is then computed, alerting you to unusual activity while it's happening. Stocks moving up on unusually high volume may warrant further research. IBD Stock Checkup and IBD Charts can help you research these prospects further. The qualification criteria for listing in 'Where The Big Money's Flowing Now': Stocks must trade on the Nasdaq or New York Stock Exchange. Stock price must be at least $20.00 ($16.00 for Nasdaq). Stocks must have a price change of 1/2 point or more. 50-day Average Volume must be a minimum of 60,000 shares. For stocks up in price only, the Earnings Per Share (EPS) and Relative Price Strength (RS) Ratings must each be a minimum of 70, Accumulation/Distribution Rating must be D+ or better and next year's earnings estimate must be 15% or higher from the previous year's earnings. (Stocks without earnings estimates are included.) Enjoy, TxTrapper |

10/19/2004 7:55:40 PM Tool for playing the e-minis....look before trading anything.....I check the S&P Index every day, since it closely resembles the movement in the e-minis. As you can see from the chart the S&P 500 closed below its 50ma. Draw a support line accross the recent lows, as you can see it closed just above support. If for whatever reason a trading opportunity doesn't arise, it's no big deal. There's always tomorrow. What's important here is stick to your rules. go long > 50ma go short < 50ma Watch for OBV confirmation. http://tinyurl.com/3rqj7 Enjoy, TxTrapper |
