“HOW TO OVERCOME THE 5 MOST COMMON INVESTING MISTAKES.” was the topic of Friday’s Special Presentation. It was timely as both Canada and U.S. Markets continued their choppy ride. Despite 2.7% and 3.5% weekly gains respectively and Primary Wave Up signals, it seems best in our current, largely news-driven market conditions to set smaller initial profit targets and tighter stops to reduce volatility and risk.

TAKE CONTOL! Below are two Trade Analysis examples using Support & Resistance on graphs followed by Jamin Heller’s Trade Analysis and Risk Management Calculator. These are not trade recommendations, just examples of how planning your trades can help you manage risk and give you total control over your trades in these choppy markets. In both examples, we’re risking just .3% of our total portfolio, less than the 1% risk guideline suggested by VectorVest. CHECK THE FUTURES. Despite the PW/Up signals in both CA and US, it’s always a good idea to check the futures for follow-through before you buy. As in the examples below, use a buy on stop limit order and set your entry price slightly higher than the last close in order to ensure the stock is rising before your order is filled.
