I think you should too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1-   Never, ever, ever, ever try to catch a falling knife.  Never, ever, ever, ever try to catch a falling knife. When a stock is trading lower, Do Not buy thinking it will bounce right back after you buy.  The equity may keep falling a lot more than you think and you will have to double, triple or quadruple down to just to get back to the break-even point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2-   Never, ever, ever, ever try to go against the overall market.  Never, ever, ever, ever try to go against the overall market. Vivid example is today's market.  So many people tried to go against the market trying to predict a bottom and got hurt pretty bad.  When in doubt, follow the trend lines to see where the market is heading before you take a position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3-   Always set trailing stops for winning trades.  Always set trailing stops for winning trades. Especially, when the trade jumps in its first few days after getting filled.  Set a trailing stop for 10%. Which means, if the option goes down in price by 10%, then you are automatically out.  You can set the trailing stop at whatever you are comfortable with but just keep in mind that however easy you make the $$, you can easily lose $$ too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4-   Always set stops for initial entries.  Always set stops for initial entries. After you get filled, set your stop loss at a target you are comfortable with. Simple but not followed by a lot of traders. Trades will go awry.  You don't want to lose a lot of money and have none to get back in the game the next day.  Take it from me! I lost a lot of money not setting stops.  I don't want you to make the same mistake I made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5-   Always keep an eye on the overall market for signs of strength or weakness.  Always keep an eye on the overall market for signs of strength or weakness.  There is an all adage in Wall Street "The Trend Is Your Friend".  It can't be any more true when the market is heading up, buy calls on securities that have shown strength.  If the market is going down, buy puts on the securities that have performed the worst in the up market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6-   Never try to predict a bottom.  Never try to predict a bottom. So many great investors just recently tried to call in a bottom and lost Billions.  Try not be a hero.  There will always be opportunities to chose from.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7-   Never try to predict a top.  Just when you sell thinking the top had been reached, securities can keep going up!  You try to get back in thinking you have missed on the upside opportunity and the bottom falls off.  Keep your eyes on the signals (Candlesticks, western, sentiment, news...)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8-   Always use candlesticks for confirmation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9-   Always use support and resistance points. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10-  Always use trend lines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11-  If an equity gaps up and consolidates without trading below the low of the GAP in 5 trading days or less, take a long position as soon as the high of the GAP is broken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12-  If an equity gaps down and consolidates without trading above the high of the GAP in 5 trading days or less, take a short position as soon as the low of the GAP is broken.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13-  Use Williams %R 30 to confirm entry and exit of positions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14-  When volume capitulation occurs, take a position for a quick trade.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;15-  On downtrending markets, use bearish engulfing patterns, with second candle’s top body price is at least 15% of first candle’s top price, with 2nd candle’s volume is at least 130% of 1st candle’s volume, when 1st candle of pattern made a new high.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16-  Keep an eye on the global economic health by keeping an eye on Copper.  Copper goes up, healthy global economy.  Copper goes down, you guessed it, weak global economy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17-  Keep an eye on Dry Shippers.  They bottom, buy coal stocks.  They top, sell coal stocks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18-  Shanghai stock market bottoms, buy coal and dry shippers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19-  As the mighty Dollar weakens, buy gold stocks, exporters stocks, oil stocks. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;20-  To learn more about &lt;STRONG&gt;Technical Analysis&lt;/STRONG&gt; Go Here: &lt;a href="http://biz.yahoo.com/charts/index.html" title="Yahoo Finance"&gt;Yahoo Finance&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More Option Stock Picks Trading Rules will follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like to excel at options trading like myself, you will need to read the book by Steve Palmquist.

A Call Option gives you the right, but not the obligation, to BUY (go 'Long' the market). A Put Option gives you the right, but not the obligation, to SELL ('Sell Short' the market).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why Trade Stock Options?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Options were created to reduce risk. The principle of trading/using options to reduce risk is simple. Options allow you to control an asset (a stock) at only a fraction of its purchase price. The less money you put at risk, the lower the potential hazard to your financial well being. But remember, when you utilize what we've already taught you about using Stop Losses' (ISL) when entering the market (either 'Long' or 'Short'), there will be NO need to worry about losing too much money on a trade (a maximum of 8% of the value of the stock). The manner in which you can use options though can provide opportunities for tremendous profits.&lt;br /&gt;So what are we saying here? Something that was supposed to reduce risk offers opportunities for tremendous profits? Higher profits always come at the expense of higher risks, don't they? Not necessarily! The secret lies in the definition of risk and in the use of leverage. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The use of options is a little like buying lottery tickets. You bet only a few dollars for the opportunity of winning a large amount of money. You know that your chances of winning the lottery are very small, so you bet only small amounts of money at the time. If you win, however, the payoff can be huge. This is what options are all about...risking a small amount and controlling hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions worth of assets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most common example of using options is the case of writing a small check to hold a house you may wish to buy. In this example, you demonstrate your willingness to buy the property by committing a relatively small amount of money to the realtor. In most cases, the money isn't really at risk because it will be refunded to you if you decide not to buy the house or release the property before the agreed upon deadline. Although buying and selling stock options is not quite as customer friendly, the idea is the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are the do it yourself type of person, I can tell you that reading the book Money-Making Candlestick Patterns: Backtested for Proven Results By Steve Palmquist is a great place to learn how to invest with options. Check it out here&lt;BR&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=freoptpic0e-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as1&amp;asins=1592803288&amp;fc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;lt1=_blank&amp;m=amazon&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;bc1=000000&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;f=ifr" style="width:120px;height:240px;" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And then again, you could always let me do the work by subscribing to my blog:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/" title="Free Options Picks"&gt;Free Options Picks&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/free-investing-tips.html" title="Free Investing Tips"&gt;Free Investing Tips&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/free-options-picks.html" title="Free Options Picks Education"&gt;Free Options Picks Education&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/my-record.html" title="My Record"&gt;My Record&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/compound-returns-sample.html" title="Compound Returns Sample"&gt;Compound Returns Sample&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/chart-of-week.html" title="Chart Of The Week"&gt;Chart Of The Week&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/free-options-picks-of-week.html" title="Free Options Picks Of The Week"&gt;Free Options Picks Of The Week&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/free-options-picks-disclaimer.html" title="Disclaimer"&gt; Disclaimer &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/stock-option-picks-free-option-picks.html" title="Home"&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6070498458109498717-6897670073863990958?l=freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='related' href='http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/' title='Free Options Picks Education'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6070498458109498717/posts/default/6897670073863990958'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6070498458109498717/posts/default/6897670073863990958'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://freeoptionspicks.blogspot.com/2008/11/free-options-picks.html' title='Free Options Picks Education'/><author><name>Stock Options Picker</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6070498458109498717.post-3319748765345805704</id><published>2008-11-07T08:55:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-14T17:01:59.540-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Stock Option Picks Free Option Picks</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Free Options Picks&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My nick name is Stock Options Picker and I am an independent online trader. I provide "Free Option Trading Picks for You" service to help people make money in this crazy stock market. The rules have changed, greedy hedge funds are imploding, greedy companies that put profits first before long term customer relationships are dropping like flies and now it's time for you and me regular people to take a piece of the pie back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had achieved over 700% profit on one IRA account in 7 months last year. Some option picks had doubled the account value within one month or less. My overall average return target is about 35% per month. Yes, you read it right! 35% return per month. In small bites. What I mean by that is, if you have an account of $100,000.00 you don't put all that money in one trade!! Absolutely NOT. This is not how I operate. You take $5,000.00 or $10,000.00 of that account and put it in a trade that will generate $1,750.00 or $3,500.00. No matter how great the trade looks, you are now a disciplined trader and you will NOT deviate from the system. You will see that following my system (entry, exit, stop loss and all) will generate more money for you than you could ever imagine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Successful Option Trading:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AMGN 36% profit in 8 days&lt;br /&gt;ANR 200% profit in 24 days&lt;br /&gt;APC 238% profit in 8 days&lt;br /&gt;APC 91% profit in 12 days&lt;br /&gt;CFC 80% profit in 20 days&lt;br /&gt;CCJ 39% profit in 30 days&lt;br /&gt;DRYS 233% profit in 5 days&lt;br /&gt;ICE 217% profit in 4 days&lt;br /&gt;ICE 212% profit in 36 days&lt;br /&gt;BSC 172% profit in 1 days&lt;br /&gt;KEY 30% profit in 6 days&lt;br /&gt;KLAC 229% Profit in 12 days&lt;br /&gt;MA 272% Profit in 15 days&lt;br /&gt;LXK 288% Profit in 14 days&lt;br /&gt;LEH 60% Profit in 8 days&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;***Trading of securities involves risk of loss of your investment money.
