Delete Your Stock Watch List Like There Is No Tomorrow

Dear trader, I wish I could tell you that you are going to like this story.

I deleted my entire watch list.



Why?

It is a list of stocks that I have manually screened to buy.

The stocks moved up.

One of them more than 100%... ZOM.

I didn't buy any of them.

I feel so full of regrets.

Why didn't I buy them?

1. I queued at a lower price.

2. I have reached my capital limit. 

3. I thought I could wait a little longer.

After deleting the list, I feel better.

Now that I know I can pick profitable stocks to buy, what can I do better?

  • Increase my capital limit to handle 30 stocks. 
  • Buy when the buy signals appear. Don't wait.
  • Buy at the current price instead of support.
Let's see how it goes.

All 3 must meet the criteria... BOL (20, C,2). Above Upper Band (sell).  RSI (7). Cross above 70 (sell). OBV. Reach a 3-month high (sell).  A. Average Analyst Price Target is equal to or less than price (otherwise let the profits run).  Remember... Never expect the price to return to its previous high. Sell on signal even if it's a loss (capital cashflow is better than stuck or falling losses) Identify stocks to BUY Buy only S&P500 stocks... for stability and dividends. Use the Moomoo stock screener to screen SP500 stocks with a daily Bol...
