We have all driven by a house that seems to just sit on the market forever. At some point we all wonder what's wrong with that house. Why have other houses around sold and this one hasn't? Is it the price, location, what seems to be the problem? Before I get to what the real problem is with why some homes don't sell while others around seem to sell in a reasonable amount of time, I would like to talk a little bit about some mitigating factors. I know it should go without saying, but I will say it anyway - not all homes are created equal. There are new homes and old homes; some have been updated; others have fresh paint or a front door that is so hard to open that you have to put your shoulder into...

Have you ever struggled to make sense out of a stock chart? All those squiggly lines thatsupposedly, to the anointed, divine the future course of a stock? Well, you're not alone. I've recently run across a copy of an old (1931) classic, which I had thought to be outof print, written by Humphrey B. Neill titled Tape Reading and Market Tactics. This book, in my opinion, is the best book ever written on not only how to read the tape,but also how to figure out what's going on behind the numbers. Full of charts and graphs, Tape Reading and Market Tactics not only tells allabout the mechanics that drive price action, it also contains excellent sections onhuman nature and speculation. I've always...

A good many investors wonder if predicting victorious stocks is certain. When a stock is seen to rise strongly one year, the reasonable thing is usually to take for granted that it will continue to do so the next time, isn't it? If the inherent market rises well in one year, is it safe to assume it will continue to do the same? When you're used to seeing patterns, how tempting it is to think so now, the way we've seen everything rally near the last several months. But one can't just take your money to the market because they believe in inertia - that things have to as a matter of course move in the direction that they are heading in. What these theories would make for is a really sorry stock market...

This morning while I prepared for work I listened as my coffee maker slowly dripped water through the aromatic grounds waiting for my daily nirvana fix. Opening the door I saw the nightly raindrops slide to the ground from the moisture laden tree leaves. Our ever playful and faithful dog sat at my feet drooling in anticipation of his morning treat. If I believed in signs, which I do, it would appear that drips would somehow have an appearance in my writing today. So be it. What does dripping have to do with marketing ideas? Drip marketing is not about coffee, rain or anticipatory drool. Drip marketing is a strategy that involves sending out several promotional pieces over a period of time to a...

As an entrepreneur starting a new business or venturing into a new market, any person you approach for advice will likely tell you that it is important that you do some research before you take the plunge. There is just one problem with this advice - often, nobody seems to tell you how exactly you are to conduct your research. What type of information you need, where to find the information, what factors to consider or the scope of research needed is just some of the factors that you need to look into to effectively carry out marketing research. In order for your research to be valuable to your marketing process, you must first have a clear picture of what it is you are doing. Many first time...

Before you even open your first stock account, you should learn stock trading basics. That time may be past for some of you who dabbled in the market and lost, but it's never too late to learn. The first and most important lesson in stock trading basics is to ALWAYS buy low and sell high. Too often people purchase shares of a stock that has performed well for several days, only to find they jumped in right before it began to fall. In a panic, they sell the stock for lower than the original cost. If you've experienced that, you need some serious help and study time. Stock education doesn't mean you'll never lose in the stock market. There are no guarantees. It means that you'll take more action that...

Do you want to trade stocks? If so, then penny stocks are a great way to get started, because the risk is so low (but the reward can be SO high!). Most penny stocks are listed in the minor stock markets, and costs somewhere between $5 to $10 per share. This makes investing in stocks more manageable especially you are working with a limited amount of funds. It lessens your exposure and, although there are risks involved, losing probably won't leave you penniless. Going into the stock trading business, whether in the major leagues or not, is a gamble. There are risks involved whatever stock you decide to buy. Thus, it is extremely important that you make your decision based on figures and confirmed...

The stock market ticker tape is, now, a computerized unit that relays information about a stock's trading activity to investors around the world. The stock market ticker tape's information includes the stocks' symbol on the exchanges, the latest price per share, and its trading volume. Before computerized methods, stock market ticker symbols were printed out on a thin piece of paper that continuously streamed out of a ticker-tape machine. The stock ticker-tape machine was invented in 1867 in the aftermath of the development of the telegraph machine. In those days, "pad shovers" were employed to feed the tape to brokers in their offices; brokers would set up offices as near as possible to the New...

The best tip to finding undervalued companies for you to invest in is to research as much as you can. It is so important to only purchase a stock when you have completed alot of research on it. This way you will feel more confident in the purchase that you make. It is never a good idea to buy a stock based upon a hunch or because someone told you that this was a great buy. I have gotten messed up at that. I once purchased a stock because it was mentioned on TV by one of the famous stock analysts. Needless to say, I lost some money in it. Rather than doing proper research on it, I totally went by word of mouth. If I would have researched it first, then I might have avoided it due to key indicators...

(1) Mixing many risky securities. Portfolio theory has its roots in the management of investors' portfolios of stock exchange investments and fixed interest stocks. The following sections show how the attempt to identify an optimal portfolio for investors has led to a comprehensive but simple theory of how the capital market relates risk and return. This, in turn, will assist us in our attempt to adjust discount rates to allow for risk. The previous section considered portfolios of two securities. It is easy to expend this theory to cover portfolios of many securities, noting that where returns are assessed in percentage terms: (a) The expected return of a portfolio is equal to the weighted average...

While Elliot Waves Theory may be a complicating and sometimes controversial subject, it is easy to agree that some of the more common "counts" are universally acceptable, and are often seen across most financial instruments being traded nowadays, including forex and currencies. The various variants aside, general elliot wave theory tells us that there are 5 waves or sub-waves within a wave. These waves are called Wave 1, Wave 2, Wave 3, Wave 4 and Wave 5 respectively. Wave 1, is the beginning wave and comes after a period of consolidation that signifies the end of a 5th wave. Wave 2 is a corrective wave that comes after a wave 1. Wave 3 is an impulse wave upwards, and is often the longest of the...

Trendlines are one of the most basic tools used in trading. A trendline indicated that price action is either going up steadily or down steadily. When the trendline has a positive slope, it means that the price action is going up. This is also known as an Uptrend. When a trendline has got a negative slope, this means that the price action is going down and the market is in a downtrend! Now, you can draw the trendline yourself. However, most of the trading software can draw the trendlines for you automatically so you don't need to do much. Drawing trendlines is always a subjective matter. It looks obvious but sometimes, you can question the placement of the trendline. But don't worry too much about...

Technical Information - Background Bollinger Bands were developed by John Bollinger as a technical trading tool in the early 1980s. Theyarose from the need for adaptive trading bands and the observation that volatility was not static as was widely believed, but dynamic. Bollinger developed the technique of using moving averages with two trading bands. This is not unlike using an envelope on either side of a moving average. However, unlike using a percentage computation from a normal moving average, Bollinger Bands add and subtract a standard deviation calculation. Bollinger Bands are used to provide a definition of relative high and low. This is an indication of prices being "high" at one end and...

In 1798, Benjamin Franklin commented in a letter to John-Baptiste Leroy that 'nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes'. And it seems to still hold true today. However, perhaps given the blessing of hindsight, and the events of the last 200 years to which Mr. Franklin was not party, we can tentatively add a third 'recession'. At last count, there have been six major recessions to date -two in the interwar period, three more in 1973, 1979 and 1989, and of course the latest being 2009. With recent events at BP showing that event the most safely perceived stocks and shares can be anything but in times of crisis, investor confidence in companies is falling. However, it does appear, at...
