Webinar

Going to take a web seminar on Technical Analysis in 10 minutes. It's free from Schwab and is hosted by Lee Bohl. Irrelevant for most of you, but for newcomers I will give an honest review. Perhaps in the future it could be of some help to some. Here is a link to the class.

Active Trader - Technical Analysis for Traders

Thumbs up

Ok.

Other than the abrupt ending which I missed because I was borderline pissing on myself so I had to leave for 35 seconds, it was a very good easy to understand demonstration of basic technical analysis. I can't C&P the notes I took since that would be illegal but will give some topics touched upon.

- Went into Dow Theory and what TA was of course (6 points and those being trends, averages, ect.)
- Support and resistance which are fairly easy to understand without any tutoring
- Trendlines which I sometimes have problems identifying. Seems like an easy concept to grasp but I sucked at it, thankfully this gave me a better insight to trendlines and comparing those to MA's.
- From trendlines of course came moving averages which is what 1/3 of the webinar was composed of.
- Touching randomly on oscillator, money flow line, macd, SL, EMA12/26 ect.

For the majority of you, I would imagine that this is stuff you already know but if your shaky on TA I recommend them. They didn't try to sell me anything (at least not right now) or pimp a particular product. So if your brand new, you have nothing to lose and something to gain. If you want the cliff notes let me know I am editing it now in MS word, just PM me.
