There’s a good chance you answered “yes” to at least one if not all of the questions above. You are not alone! Most new and veteran traders lose money trading and without the proper strategy and discipline trading for profits is tough! If you answered yes, you WILL benefit from our live trading room and bi-monthly seminars and if you disagree anytime, cancel. Sure we could go the normal finance route and offer a two or seven day free trial hoping you forget you’re a member by the time the balloon payment charges and fall back on the tiny print but we don’t need to.

Why 14 days trial? Simple. Sitting clueless watching full time traders share their live trades does you no good without understanding what is going on. Instead, we give you the tools and resources to understand it, the time to apply it during trading hours, and the opportunity to ask questions and share ideas with other traders after hours every single day. With that, we are certain of two things: The first, you won’t need someone to convince you by showing; you’ll convince yourself by doing. The second, you’ll realize just how powerful a trader, with 45 years of experience sharing his scans and trades, in real time is.Charting ServicesBigCharts is what InvestorsLive normally uses on its DailyScan. BigCharts makes it easy to post a chart which automatically updates throughout the trading day allowing page viewers to be current with market information (of course, 15 minutes delayed). This is particularly useful for intra-day trades to review stocks that may be currently in play based on trading ideas mentioned in the DailyScan. Furthermore, trading ideas don’t always pan out within a day, it may take days or weeks to reach an attractive trading level (areas of support, border-line-breakout, over-extensions and resistance) based on the type of trade and these charts act as an updating watch list which can be viewed easily each night for the next trading day.Stockcharts is a great service for charting, the subscription services allows you to place your own annotations on the chart and save them for later review. You can create a library and watch for stocks to breakout or breakdown out of an annotation you’ve draw such as support and resistance levels or a channel whether its a triangle, double top, cup and handle or any other technical measure you may be watching.

Stock Screeners

Stock Screening is an important part to trading. Yes you can always take the most active stocks for the day, pull them up on a chart and trade them, but at times you might want to take a more passive approach. Once you find a chart pattern you tend to do well with you may become a swing trader. The nightly scans produced here on the site are created mainly by the stock house screener with specific queries selected.

BarChart – this is a great tool for finding stocks carrying momentum, 52 week high break outs, hot sectors and quick access to the days biggest gainers.

Yahoo Screener – extremely helpful when searching sector to sector. Mainly Stockhouse scanner listed above does trick, but in the case of a 20 pitch at bat with no success, Yahoo makes an excellent closer.

Unusual Volume | Pre-Market Ten Most Advanced | After Hours Ten Most Advanced

Scanning based on the following criteria above can help find the next day’s play. Whether it’s unusual volume – many cases it may be a stock that hasn’t traded in quite some time up abnormally on low volume. Two other scans Pre-Market Most Advanced and After Hours Most Advanced allow you to quickly and easily find what may be in play the next day. A lot of times stocks will trade at extreme highs in the extending trading ours and come back to reality once the rest of the market begins trading them.

52 Week Highs | 52 Week Lows

52 Week Highs scans are a powerful tool, no matter what market you are in it’s a list of the hottest best performing stocks for no other reason except that they’re at their highest point in the last 365 days. With the scan comes two trading scenario’s (technically three since you can always take the “do nothing” approach). You can either buy the breakout and hope that momentum carries you higher aiding in a trading profit, or you can watch for the breakout, wait for the squeeze and take an opposite approach (shorting the stock) betting that the stock is going to correct itself, and that at current levels it’s either over-extended technically or over valued. On the same token, 52 week lows are a great area to search for the worst performing stocks in any given market but these can at times be the most rewarding. A bottom reversal with the proper trading rules (don’t hold just because its “lows” its there for a reason) followed by a squeeze can produce serious profits

Due Diligence / Filings

Sec.gov is the most accurate and current public data available regarding filings such as 10QSB, 10-K, 8-K, and many others. This can be a great way to check for dilution when trying to figure out why a stock won’t bounce – it’s always important to do this if you’re looking for more than a day trade because many times as soon as the momentum slows stocks generally have a gravitational pull south.

PinkSheets.com offers short interest on many otcbb stocks as well as recent filings, news, and other information important to trading OTCBB and PinkSheet stocks.
