I think I'm relatively good at reading charts; now I have to work on my discipline.
I first started trading just prior to this crash in July of '08. I didn't know anything about chart reading and I lost ALOT :(.
I haven't really had enough capital ever since to trade, so my only position is ITRO and a geothermal company (NGLPF).
The daily chart on NGLPF isn't looking so good, it ran up from .20 to $1.20 and now it's around .79 cents. I bought in at .80 and ignored the sell signal at $1.10 on the Ickimoku, cause I thought news and fundamentals were good.
I might take like $5000 and start actively trading again, since I think I am in alot better position and have more discipline.
Maybe I will start paper trading first :). I should have done that in '08.
