In this week's issue:
I have created a short video introducing how the Stockscores indicators work and how you can use them to help you perform better in the market. You can view the video by clicking here.
Hopefully some of you will find these short saying will resonate:
1. Buying a weak stock is like betting on a slow horse. It is foolish.
2. Stocks are only cheap if they are going higher after you buy them.
3. Never trust a person more than the market. People lie, the market does not.
4. Controlling losers is a must; let your winners run out of control.
5. Simplicity in trading demonstrates wisdom. Complexity is the sign of inexperience.
6. Have loyalty to your family, your dog, your team. Have no loyalty to your stocks.
7. Emotional traders want to give the disciplined their money.
8. Trends have counter trends to shake the weak hands out of the market.
9. The market is usually efficient and cannot be beat. Exploit inefficiencies.
10. To beat the market, you must have an edge.
11. Being wrong is a necessary part of trading profitably. Admit when you are wrong.
12. If you do what everyone is doing you will be average, so goes the definition.
13. Information is only valuable if no one knows about it.
14. Lower your risk till you sleep like a baby.
15. There is always a reason why stocks go up or down, we usually only learn the reason when it is too late.
16. Trades that make a lot of intellectual sense are likely to be losers.
17. You do not have to be right more than you are wrong to make money in the market.
18. Don't worry about the trades that you miss, there will always be another.
19. Fear is more powerful than greed and so down trends are sharper than up trends.
20. Analyze the people, not the stock.
21. Trading is a dictators game; you cannot trade by committee.
22. The best traders are the ones who do not care about the money.
23. Do not think you are smarter than the market, you are not.
24. For most traders, profits are short term loans from the market.
25. The stock market cannot be predicted, we can only play the probabilities.
26. The farther price is from a linear trend, the more likely it is to correct.
27. Learn from your losses, you paid for them.
28. The market is cruel, it gives the test first and the lesson afterward.
29. Trading is simple but it is not easy.
30. The easiest time to make money is when there is a trend.

This week, I used the Market Scan to search for stocks that are making an abnormal gain with abnormal volume. I find that most strong upward trends start with abnormal price breaks on strong vollume out of a low volatility chart pattern. Below are a few stocks that had standout charts.Back To Top
1. TLB
TLB has held long term support at $2 and is now building optimism. The stock made an abnormal gain with abnormal volume on Friday and appears to be in the early stages of a long term turnaround. Support at $2.65.
Back To Top
2. V.INT
V.INT was one of the hot stocks of 2011 and is now starting to heat up again. Strong gains on abnormal volume Friday show that the market is taking an interest in the stock again. Support at $0.44.
Back To Top
3. IMT
IMT is breaking its long term downward trend line and is likely in the early stages of a long term trend reversal. Support at $5.65.
