Short term stock trading?

By admin · April 5, 2010 · Filed in Short Term Trading · 5 Comments »

Recently, with the volatility of the Market, I have begun to buy stocks and when they go up by few hundreds $, I sell, knowing that it will drop again, and repeat the process. The financials (C, JPM, WFC) are so predictable. I feel nervous about what I am doing. Do I just need to pay the taxes on the profits as if they were CD interests, short term Cap gains, and regular income? I do not want to be surprised when doing my taxes. But I’m having so much fun!!

Your profits on short term stock trades (assets held less than 1 year) are short term capital gains. On the U.S. Individual Income Tax Return,
Form 1040 you report Capital Gains and Losses on "Schedule D and Schedule D-1 (continuation sheet for Schedule D).

29 Trading Rules- Short But Sweet

By admin · April 3, 2010 · Filed in Short Term Trading · 3 Comments »

  29 Trading Rules and 6 Guidelines

Trading Rules

When you start out trading it is important that you set up some rules and guidelines for how you are going to trade. As without rules and guidelines you are trading without a goal in mind. Over 90% of traders will end up going broke and not making money from the market, and the one of the key reasons is because they have no rules. Here are some Rules to Get you started.

At the www.cfdfxreport.com we are big believers in these rules and we make sure that we are continually educating our members on becoming better traders.

If you are looking for a great Forex Broker that can help you implement these rules then please feel free to contact us support@cfdfxreport.com

1. You should never over-trade- Don’t trade for trades sake
2. Make sure that you never risk more than 10% of your trading capital in a single trade, protecting your capital is very important. There will be more trade opportunities
3. Ensure that you never trade without protective stops and use trailing stops 
4. Don’t cancel a stop-loss after placing the trade- otherwise get out
5. Never average  down on a losing trade 
6. When you get into a profit  never let it run into a loss.
7. Never buy or sell just because the price is low or high, as what is high and low 
8. Never try to guess tops or bottoms- otherwise go to the casino and pick black or red 
9. You should never limit a profiting trade, instead move your stops to guarantee a profit- ideal trading is as soon as you get into a good profit at aleast ensure a break even
10. You should never close a position toget out of the market because you have lost patience or get in because you are   anxious from waiting.
11. Please never hedge a losing position.
12. Never change your position or close a trade without a good reason.
13. Never follow a blind man’s advice, everyone has trading sure things. Use systematically approach
14. Make sure that you never enter a trade if you are unsure of the trend. Never buck a trend. Remember the rule TREND IS YOUR FRIEND
15. Try to avoid scalping for small profits and taking large losses if you scalp you need tight stops
16. Avoid trading after long periods of  failure- take a break, reasses and reset your rules 
17. If you have a great run don’t keep increasing your trade size

18. Avoid getting in wrong or getting in right and out wrong, making a double mistake.
19. Always identify strong support/resistance levels.
20. Always lock in a profit at predetermined increments on profiting trades.
21. EVERY trade must have stop losses
22. Always distribute your risk equally among different markets.
23. Don’t be a one trick pony, make money from both sides of the market
24. Always reduce trading after the first loss; never increase.
25. Always cut your losses short and let your profits run.
26. When in doubt, get out. Do not get in when in doubt.
27. Only trade active markets- illiquid markets will leave you thirsty
28. Only pyramid trades that have a strong trend and should be accomplished once the price has crossed support/resistance.
29. Profits from a successful trade should be kept for future trade margins or put somewhere else, spread the risk. 

Some Further Guide lines

Who are you? Are you a risk taker? Can you afford to lose money? First thing to do is to understand yourself the type of trader that you are, whether aggressive or conservative, long-term or short.  If you are short term and trade goes bad, cut it, don’t become a long term trader, otherwise you buying and hoping, not even buying and holding.
Have a trading strategy before entering the market. Know before the trade is executed where you will take profits/loss.
Understand why a win/loss occurred and how you could of made the trade better.
Consistency is the key to trading success, without it you have nothing.
Your judgment is the only concern, do not let outside factors affect the way you trade.
Not everyone can be a trader, deem yourself worthy if given this opportunity.

Most importantly have fun and stick to your rules.

My income from salary is 1.2 lacs & from share trading(short term) is 25 thousand. what will be my tax laibili?

By admin · April 3, 2010 · Filed in Short Term Trading · 2 Comments »


Nil. Your total income is less than taxable. That is less than 1,60,000. So no tax for your income Rs.1,20,000+25,000= Rs.1,45,000 .

How and where can i purchase online stocks/shares for short term and not day trading.?

By admin · April 2, 2010 · Filed in Short Term Trading · 4 Comments »


All major brokerage firms provide their clients with on-line services, including trading platforms, latest market & financial news and research. All firms handle security transactons whiether they be for investments or for trading (short term or day)

Customer need to select the site that is best for them. Traders have requirements in a site, while investors have other requirements. I use Scottrade for trading equities, Thinkorswim for trading options and Fidelity for investments.

Although most sites are geared to general securities and commodities, however customers may have special needs for the types of products they trade, and the markets in which they trade.
It seems that the most popular firms for on-line investing all of which provide excellent platforms and services are; Scottrade; Chas.Schwab; TDAmeritrade; Fidelity; E-Trade and Thinkorswim. I personally use Scottrade for equity trading, Thinkorswim for my option trading and Fidelity for investing.

Just select the site you feel comfortable with, and not one that someone else likes.

On a balance sheet, what valuation must be reported for short-term investments in trading securities?

By admin · April 1, 2010 · Filed in Short Term Trading · 1 Comment »


Investments held for trading are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently at fair value, with fair value changes taken to the income statement. Quoted market prices in an active market are the best evidence of fair value and should be used, where they exist, to measure the financial instrument.
