Her opinion (as an experienced trader) is what I believe in myself and what I try to stress Continue reading →

All time high trading and investing results in June 2014
My trading and investing in 2014 was the best and all time high I have ever reached in the entire history of trading and investing.

I look at the market trend and stocks trends from technical analysis perspective and trying to eliminate the noise media are creating every day. What I see is an insignificant pullback on 1 year chart Continue reading →
I officially doubled my account today. TASR helped a lot.
I did it once before when I started trading options and I doubled my account from $4000 to $8000 couple of years ago (in 2011), but then I lost everything back down to $2000; $1914.70 to be exact. That was my wakeup call and I started looking for a strategy, which would no longer be Continue reading →
