Dear Sajha members,
I have just recently started to buy and sell stock, I am doing more research on my own but if any of you have been doing investment for a period of a time and know how to do the research and investment I would like to learn from you or if you can tell me how to look at the trend and when or which to sell or buy.

Thank you,

yes. ADAP is now 4.92. It must hit last second resistance 7.

ADAP hit $5.65 intraday, was up +15%, I had said $5.50 is the first resistance and it couldn't sustain that. I sold average of $5.35, will be looking for re-entry depending on how it trades.

Just got set up scanner with Trade Ideas algos, caught today Ceru and Innl very early, finished up with green day.

ptie looks very interesting for tomorrow, Macd is curling up and RSI is in above 50, will easily move up 10-15%.

How do you guess PTIE will go 10-15% up? No any news to support this.

Here's my watchlist for Tuesday, March 14, 2017 :

What do you guys think about buying GNC and holding for around 6 months?

Why you guys go only for biotech companies? I think information technology is also good, price fluctation is not good though.

AFMD is in loss. Why do you invest in such companies?

Of all the stocks out there, why GNC? This is the second instance I am coming across this.

DUST & AFMD मा लगानी गर भनेर क गर्न खोज्य हो कुन्नि हाम्रो साझा चौतारी त राम्रो सल्लाह पाइने ठाउँ नै होइन कि क्या हो ?

Look into KTOS,defense related stock ... in addition to increase in defense budget trump is also negotiating with NATO to share cost , I think KTOS has future .. insiders have already started buying it .. recently one director of the company bought stock worth 2 million ..also do some analysis - dcf etc

@rshr - who the fk is forcing you to buy any stock ? Stupid fking Nepali mentality when there's a thread about which stock to buy and when someone gives their opinion , you say that as someone is forcing you to buy ?
Get your freaking head checked . Stupid fu*k

What do you know about biotech investing ? Almost all biotech companies are in loss during the clinical phase . It takes years for products to come to market. Go check the history of REGN (Regeneron pharmaceuticals ) , ACAD (where the price was and where it's now ).
Earnings doesn't matter for developmental biotech companies you idiot . What matters is their pipeline .

No one is forcing you to buy anywhere, it was an opinion. I did my research on AFMD and I liked it, so I am long . Did I force you to buy ?

It's my interest to invest in biotech companies and I understand it and have done it very well. Have been doing so since last 8 years.

$100K + profits in last 3 years.

Do you understand what immunotherapy is ? And how companies are investing on it ? It's a hot area of research for different kinds of cancer. There are many developmental biotech companies working hard on it. Of course they don't have any income , they'll be at loss. If so almost all of these companies should be zero ? Why do they trade at higher price even if they're at loss ? It's their pipeline and future potential .

Go google TBRA (Tobira pharmaceutical) - was trading at $4 then big pharma bought it for $32 , overnight it went up +700% . Why ? That's something for you to research on . Yeah it didn't have any income, only loss ..

Few people posted their opinion here and you're coming out with your stupid post "kinna lai kar garyo sajha ko sathi haru le " ? Sajha is not the place you should seek investment advice . If you're looking for advice from Sajha then you shouldn't be investing with your real money, you should do paper trading .

@rshr If you would have been short on $DUST like I said on Sunday you would have made 18-20 % of the downward move in the trade and the trend is not over yet. At this point I am covering about 70% of my share and let it play out the rest. Target is around $ 28 with the new stop around 24$ .
There is no right or wrong on which stocks to trade. First you need to decide what kind of trader you want to be. Day trader/Swing Trader/Investor and so on... Then decide what type of stock you want to trade. IF you want to be a day trade/Swing trade then obviously you are looking for momentum stocks that has potential to make a big move. You are not going to sit there all day or may be weeks just to make 1 to 3-4% if ever on a trade. Example look at $BAC, $MSFT, $JPM, $IBM these are called blue chip stocks or also called "Grandpa stocks. They don't move quite often unless they have some sort of news or PR out. That's when these low float, trash company comes in play. Day traders/ Swing traders love this type of stocks as they have potential to run up to 100-200 % in a day or two. Just look at $DRYS back in Nov last yr this one has the epic move. $OCRX, $CERU Just to name few that ran lately
After you decide what type of trader you want to be than you want to know what type of strategy you want to apply to find the stocks that you want to play. Are you technical trader , a fundamental trader, mixed of both and so on. Most day traders/swing traders that hold stock from days to couple of weeks are technical trader as they don't have time to sit there and read Earnings, Quarterly report. They look for setup, pattern they have identified and trade based on them. Whereas fundamental trader rely heavily on company earnings, PR, Reports and so on and they usually hold stocks for months. That's why they don't trade these penny stocks.Nobody is comfortable holding these penny stocks for even a month from a company that you don't even know if they exists. They all are Pump and Dump. So hope this helps you. Do your own research first. Good way to start is knowing the basics of trading before jumping into the market.

Then how can you make money when stock price is falling heavily? After all it's not future commodity products that we can sell before we buy those.

@rshr - Analyzing market is very complex .If I would have known the answer to your question then would have become billionaire :) .Good tips by sajha dot com and I485. Do your research? Nobody wants to loose money..

One key guy from "Renaissance Technologies" said stock prices in France are sometimes influenced by weather of Paris.

What's your watchlist for today i485.
INNL was doing good this morning

@rshr you can short all most all of the stocks not just futures and commodities. As long as it is available to short from the broker that you have an account with. Here is the short setup that I took this morning on $LUV - Southwest Airlines. This is the same set up that I look for. Spike into resistance cover into flushes.
