    Hi Tomorton, I've only tried the QQQ (for Nasdaq 100) once this year and I did make money. I'll need to study your FTSE and it's seasonal chart history. I'd love to learn more about your strategy.

    Today I was punnished for the other stock that violated my rule. I bailed out of SRDX. :| Never again will I buy a stock before it's quarterly reports are released.

    Any other swing traders?

    Are you asking for specific stocks or do you want me to go into more detail about my system? At this moment I don't have any stock choices that would qualify as reliable and low risk, but new quarterly reports are coming out every day and I'm searching for new stocks every evening. When one...

    Hi Moriarty, I don't favor any specific index. How long I hold a stock completely depends on it's historical chart pattern and what I expect to gain from it realistically.

    I was punnished from deviating from my rules. This morning WFT released a pre-report warning that they won't meet their EPS estimates. The price reached my stop-loss range and I bailed out of it.

    http://www.tradersedge.biz/swing_trading.htm This site has a good introductory tutorial. It's hard to find sites that teach swing trading without having to sign up and pay these days. I was shocked.

    Swing trading usually involves holding a stock for several days or several weeks. I haven't found any stocks with good weekly or bi-weekly swings yet, but when I do I'll share them.

    Any other swing traders?

    You are absolutely right that WFT and SRDX are risky trades...the riskiest I've taken in a long time. I may be punished for them by the very fact that they don't live up to my personal set of financial parameters. Another factor in my strategy is that I buy, at most, 500 shares of any one stock...

    I think SRDX is in recovery. Although it's P/E is ugly and it's quarterly report comes out Oct. 29, it's chart and other financials look attractive to me and I bought it at $27.70. I hope I can sell it at $30. SRDX is a Nasdaq stock.

    Re: CURE and WFT?? I'll answer your question in two posts. The first will talk about these two stocks specifically, and the next (which will be very long) will talk about how I find them. First I should remind everyone that I'm in the U.S. and trade stocks from our Nasdaq, NYSE, and Amex...
