Im currently paper trading, made money fast by working my ass off studying all day and all night. Will be starting with real money here very soon

do you use a website or system for paper trading?

what triggers you to put the stocks on your watchlist? for example how long would you typically watch these stocks after putting them on your watchlist for possible trades before moving on to the next earnings winner?

Thanks Hayden !

@dubsquared I personally keep them for a week or so but it always depend on the price action and volumes so there might be some exceptions.

@dubsquared if they come up on my scan for the next night then I keep them on, if the don't come up but are still holding near key levels then I might keep them on

@CodyMeek good post thanks for the input. i will definitely bookmark this one because I can see how shorting isvery profitable and one stocks i knew were going down if my broker had shares to short i would have gotten in and profited

@jphotline i will have my eye on it

@Tunde1306 thanks for your feedback

the good news is i was on the right track looking at this stock as it was the #1 percentage gainer on yahoo finance today thanks @timothysykes for your lessons

Yea there's no worse feeling than not getting in on a winning trade. I did the same thing the first day KBIO ran. My plan was to buy on a dip, the thing soared and never fell so I never got in. The more I waited the more I felt like it would be a chase. It sucked to watch it explode without me but the good thing is I stuck to a plan and also, if you don't ge tin on a trade, you can't win.. sure, but you also can't lose so meh. It happens.

@Cheysongfit I use Scottrade...no fancy platform right now...no level 2...i can only stream on my ipad and phone. just keep at it. thanks for reading my post

Really glad that you got out lucky on this one. Not at all a terrible trade for your first time. Don't let your wife manipulate your trading tactics either man lol. Having too much pride and greed has never done much for anyone in the market. It's hard and I'm still trying to follow Tim's advice as well as my own rules, but don't get too greedy. Set a target, get to it, and exit promptly. The community is great here, really reconsider getting Tim alerts as you get more profit in the market. Reme

Remember take it slow and easy and play conservatively like Tim. See you in the market!

welcome !

I am not sure if Tim would call it a SuperNova. I know he would call it a "Earning Winner" since the stock is up as a result of earnings news. But to be honest it could be both. Definitely one for the watch list.

I absolutely agree, this is like a pimple waiting to be popped. lol....\

Yup, but now an earnings winner too so there's conflicting indicators, I'll stay away

I'm SOOO glad I covered my short at $6 last week! after KBIO short-squeeze I'm playing it even more safe! Tim safe strategy really works, saved my account from blowing up with KBIO and EFUT! phew!!
