I often find all manner of reference to Technical Analysis whilst reading threads, questioning certain elements, asking for advice on indicators and also requesting advice on a stock and whether it's a good time to buy, sell, hold or remain indifferent. I am the first to admit that my own TA is still in its infancy, but I do spend time on expanding my knowledge (hopefully in the right direction!).
Rather than having to ask a TA question on a particular thread, perhaps this thread could be used as a forum for TA queries and become a knowledge base. Just a thought, if there is little or no interest, the thread will sink without trace and that will be the end of that. I will personally add a few snippets to help those with less knowledge (if that's possible) to keep things rolling. There is a danger that the thread will receive countless requests for opinions on a variety of stocks and there is only so much I can do alone, therefore I would more than welcome input from other posters, no matter how rudimentary they believe their own knowledge to be, hopefully some real experts will take the time to contribute.

oh PT, she's ever-so forthcoming as she will not even allow anyone to e-mail her ...... just possibly Dynamite in another mode ..... anyway, D is clearly a serious and very wealthy whizz at day-trading ..... however, i recollect an entertaining but salutary weekly diary in the Sunday Times (i think) about a guy who decided to day-trade as a living but, i am sad to say, found it was not nearly as easy as Dynamix-d'un-certain-age boasts that it is, if we only enough brain

For what its worth I do an awful lot of reading, both on the web and the book variety, there is always room to learn and I have always stated that I am no exception to that rule. But, I have nothing to prove, I am comfortable with my level of knowledge because it does actually work. I'm also brave enough to express an opinion with entry and exit levels on particualr stocks. Are you? I very much doubt it.
Still PMSL :))

Sorry to interrupt but would some kind soul take another look at EMG I am hoping that the 200 MA (despite what I've just read about it) may prove support for the sp. Am now in too far to bale out unless there's no bottom to this. Any thoughts, tips, advice, other than throwing myself off a tall building, gratefully recieved.

ah maggie .... that one is PT special .... please don't throw yourself from anywhere, though i must say the markets are very brittle and volatile for the moment and may well stay that way for a month or two
however, EMG is damn good company and, with Dow having had a good day and EMG sp just hitting 200 dma, it would not be at all surprising to see a good bounce tomorrow ...... i know there was a reason for EMG's fall, but did not read the article

maggie, having a look for you now. Whatever else he may be Dynamix is quite correct in stating you shouldn't listen to anything on BBs. What you should do is learn which posters talk sense and which talk utter crap. When you have worked that out use their information to your best advantage or not at all.
