Take a look at tradermike.net. It is an interesting site in itself but the blogroll on the right hand side has a number of good sites. The kirk report and slope of hope are two that I go to quite often.

Thanks a lot, cuttshot.

 

Tim Knight's Slope of Hope is a real quality one - and I've never seen so many comments on posts on a trading blog!

Here's my blog about my practice, scalping and algorithmic trading. It's in french language but since some weeks, I use the google widget and I think my work is accessible to international languages.

It's very difficult to maintain a blog every day or every week in my own language and impossible to translate by myself in other language but now with technology, it's possible.

I would like to know if you understand the blog's content. My english language isn't very good but with the google widget the translation seems better.

 

Have a good day!

 

Oops! I forgot to give you the blog's adress: www.ykarius.fr

Big Mike as in big mikes forum? The only thing I would say about that one is that, when I was looking at it, there was a big thing about 'the hurrley trading method'.... After that i've never been able to take that site seriously

I am only reading one blog and it is from a gentleman who I found in Sierra Charts forum. He trades NQ and posts his idea on what he thinks will happen during the day as well as the areas where he will look to trade. Then he actually posts many of his trades (you can see them in the DOM portion of Bracket Trader that he shows). He uses a lot of different charts but is uncanny in nailing the turning points. Usually hits at least one or two 8 point or more trades a day.

Hi guys,

 

I'm Nick - a newb. What are people looking for from Blogs when you start trading? I've been doing some homework and I'm struggling to know who to trust!? There's loads of opinions out there but how do other people choose who to listen to? The cynic in me thinks...If someone had a winning strategy - why would they share it??

Nick,

 

First welcome to traderslab. You are very right that there is an endless number of blogs available for one to look at. For me personally, I look for a few things. I like to see what people are trading. I can only look at so many markets myself so if I can pick up a new idea here or there then that's great. However, I would never let a blog influence my own trade plan or system. I have a system that I feel very confident in at the moment and I'm not going to let a blog influence how I trade that system.

 

I will also read blogs that post opinions on topics in the news. Anything related to finance interests me so I like to read about whats going on. This is just more for enjoyment than doing it to help my daily trading.

 

Finally, if I'm interested in a new market or new product then I will look to people that have experience in those areas. For example, I'm very interested in weekly options right now so I'm looking for people that have experience trading them.

    • $FSLY Fastly stock, some buying down here at the 12.45 triple support area, https://stockconsultant.com/?FSLY
    • Date: 23rd April 2024. European PMIs Paint Mixed Picture, ECB advise a June Cut is Certain. The German DAX recorded its highest monthly increase as investors continue to predict a weaker EU monetary policy. JP Morgan again advised stocks are overcrowded and may see a stronger downward correction. However, economists advise this is only possible if geo-political tension escalates or companies fail to beat earnings predictions. Gold witnesses its strongest decline in 2024 falling 2.64% on Monday and a further 1.32% during this morning’s Asian session. The Euro is the best performing currency after the day’s PMI releases. However, investors should note that the US Dollar during the Asian session was performing significantly better. USA500 – Visa and Tesla Ready Shareholders For Earnings Release! The SNP500 rose 0.87% during the US trading session and also broke the previous swing high. However, JP Morgan again told journalists there are signs that the stock market is “overcrowded”. When institutions are overexposed to certain stocks or industries, it only takes one big fund to start de-levering and then others will follow. Though, investors should note that this would also depend on three factors. The first is earnings, the second is geo-political tensions and the third is inflation. This week, investors will largely watch earnings, particularly Visa and Tesla. Visa and Tesla currently hold a weight of 2.00% and are two of the most influential stocks. Tesla continues to be one of the worst performing stocks, but Visa’s earnings are less certain. Visa has beat earnings and revenue expectations over the past 4 occasions but has been struggling over the past 30 days. Analysts expect earnings and revenue to remain at the same level compared to the previous quarter. However, higher earnings can potentially increase demand. Visa stocks have risen 5.20% in 2024 and have a dividend yield of 0.76%. However, as mentioned above, the performance of the stock market will largely depend also on inflation and geo-political tensions. Though these are not likely to change within the upcoming days. In regard to inflation, investors will be eager to see if inflation again rises, in which case, interest rate cuts will likely not be possible for 2024. If this scenario materialises, stocks can decline between 20-30% ($3,700-$4,220). GER30 – ECB Ready To Cut Rates In June 2024! On a 2-hour timeframe the price of the GER30 is trading above the 75-Bar EMA and above the VWAP. In addition to this, the asset is obtaining buy signals also from oscillators and price action. The index has retraced since the release of the European PMI data, but if the price rises above 18,067, without breaking the day’s low price, buy signals will become active. One of the key drivers, along with this morning’s PMI release for Germany and France, is the latest comments from members of the ECB. According to ECB representative Mr Villeroy, even if oil remains volatile, the regulator will look to cut in June 2024. In addition to Mr Villeroy, Mr De Guindos told journalists that a rate cut in June is “crystal clear”. The guidance given is increasing the demand for the German DAX as are indications of stronger economic data. The French PMI data saw the Services index rise above 50.00 for the first time since May 2023 and beat expectations. However, the manufacturing index continues to struggle and fell compared to the previous month. The German PMI was a similar picture. The Services PMI rose to a 10-month high and beat expectations, but the Manufacturing Index read lower than the 42.8 expectations and is at a 6-month low. Always trade with strict risk management.
