I learned that it is best to take profit than to wait it out hoping the profit goes higher. Take profit if there is profit to take.

I learned today that if there isn't anything good to trade, don't force it and just wait for the right set up. Best to trade stocks you are familiar with. Also, learned June, historically since 2002, has been the most common down month....not May. So, have been trading Bear etf's. Also, learned the Fed is manipulating the stockmarket and is trying to keep it up and up.

The Fed manipulates by keeping interests rates low, Fudging the economic numbers to be positive and doing quantitative easing or printing money.

I'm not watching FB the past week if we get a little dip to buy before the fed minutes say 64 I might buy it again righ now I think AAPL is the play I like a 100 test next week or 2 July 100 might be interesting for a trade. I prefer to play ITM and with more time I have the 92.50 for sept

These are my 7 rules i follow and i think if you really stick to the rules you will do well also... 1) I Always cut your losses quickly! This is by far the BEST rule of the bunch! 2) I NEVER average down. Why add more to the misery? BUT i LOVE to average UP, meaning he/she adds to a WINNING position! 3) Chart support & resistance are the two MOST IMPORTANT chart indicators u will ever need to know. 4) Trading w/o a Level-2 and live charting you're already losing the battle before it even begins...It's a big no no! 5) It's very hard to make $1,000 but much easier to make $50-$100. So i try to pick trades wisely to gain that $50 or $100 dollars at a time. Patience is key when building up a small account. 6) Nothing is worse than when you're UP on a stock only to let it turn into a loser. To avoid that you sell on way up (or down if shorting the stock) in partials! Money in bank! 7) Keep your EMOTIONS out of the trade. Four Psychological States Of Emotion – Greed, Fear, Hope, and Regret.

The best risk management rules come from Tim Grittani's blog. I suggest everybody read it.

I agree with everything you stated but averaging down works if you have a solid company, like an earnings winner but the dip isn't justified and your timing is off. Typically, I use this for swing trades only.

#6! I'm getting better at that one. My early losses were watching $100 gains turn into $100 losses.
