A New Opportunity

Several Years ago while running my family's business that I ran for 20 years, I decide to explore extra income opportunities through various home based businesses. One wanted me to invest in thousands of dollars of inventory and attend conference calls and big pep conventions as well as buy leads and call people trying to "invite" them to try the "opportunity ". The people who make money in these types of "opportunities" is the people way way up in the food chain. I then tried various affiliate programs to find myself working more on moving the links around on my blogs than collecting any money. I recently was referred  to a home based opportunity that actually requires no up front money or inventories or ridiculous sis boom bah conventions. Of all of the so called opportunities I looked at this is by far the easiest and best set up system of all. I am finding it to be quite the opportunity especially since they didnt ask me for money to get started.  Im attaching the link at the bottom if you want to check it out.

Missing in action

Hey all. I know I have been missing in action for the last week and a half, Ive been busy setting up a new stock promotion team that consists of people like me who hate pump and dumps and gap and traps and promoters who could care less about you but instead care about their own bottom line.

Im talking about finding good quality companies with revenues and visions of long term growth. Companies that are NOT looking to dilute their stock and actually take an interest in their investors as well as their own growth. Fully reporting SEC compliant companies with full transparency. Products and Services that are real and a solid business plan. Sound too good to be true?  I think NOT.

All it takes is a little due diligence. What Im talking about its ME doing the due diligence before I decide to let the company hire me. If I know going into a promotion what the company is all about then I can do my job for YOU and I can properly present that company to you. A good stock promoter puts a little buzz out a week or two before the promo and then on the day of the big campaign goes heavier getting the word out and then once its over gives 2 or 3 weeks more support to help keep the awareness and the price up.

I will keep you posted as I progress so you can watch the stocks we promote and see that while yes all stocks have bad days, ours dont just tank.

CEOS in publicly traded companies

Hey its been a few days since I posted, I really got into setting up marketing material for a really good company we are representing and just didnt have time. I do hope you missed me though.

I wanted to take a few key strokes to talk about a simple part of the due diligence process, the CEO.
Does he or she stand in front of the company for God and everyone else to see or do you really have to dig to find him and what he has been up to. Is he committed to just one company? Where has he been and what is his experience in the field that his company does business in are questions I ask first. As I have been telling you the last few months, most penny stocks are scams, empty shells with no products or revenues and bigtime traps for you . If you find a penny stock that the CEO stands out in the open in front of, my gut tells me it is pretty much legit and I should research further and then consider investing in that company. Those CEO'S are few and far between so when you find one its like a golden egg. The only way you find these CEO'S is by doing your due diligence.

Dress me up and call me Sally

As Ive sat here all week watching  certain unsuccessful stock promoters pump stocks endlessly and run the price up with their own 100 share buys, I thought about the poor investors who are just looking to have continual sustained long term growth in their portfolio and the actual companies who are having their stocks trashed by these promoters. You see most stock promotions are not run by the actual company but by third parties who have large positions in that stock looking to do one thing....... SELL

A vast majority of scams in the stock world are penny stocks. Alot of those stocks are just shell companies with no employees or products and absolutely no revenues at all. Promoters will dress up the presentation of those companies and try to lure you in on the promise of steady future growth when 

actually after the days promotion the promoter will be long gone and you will be stuck in a stock worth 

far less than you paid for it. 

I think the best example I can give is from my own mistake I once made when I was young in my trading life. A promotional newsletter came out on a particular penny stock. I had a hot $1000 dollars burning a hole in my trading pocket and I wanted to trade it. So as I was getting pretty good at reading stockcharts I looked at the chart on the stock. Little did I know that the promoters had been "painting" the chart to make it look pretty for me as it called my name out. 

On the day of the big promotion I woke excited as heck and already counting my extra thousands I was going to make as I had a hot tip newsletter that promised me fresh new news that was gonna make this sucker run. You see I made 3 very grave errors in my decision to trade this stock. First I believed the surface glitz they placed on the stock and didnt dig more on my own. Second I didnt have a position in it before the big "news" came out. Thirdly and probably most important is I was trading on emotion.

The stock traded hot and heavy for a hot 15 minutes and I had a hard time getting in because it gapped up . Once I finally got in, the stock fizzled and the downward spiral began. My 1000 dollars turned into 

34 dollars as I was trapped in hoping for the readjustment bounce that never came. Eventually I was in so deep I just had to stay and refused to get out. 

I have now filed that loss in the part of my education in stock trading file. Dont fall prey to the glam and glitz that got me. Do the work and reap the benefits of your hard work. Use the promoters alerts and newsletters only as a tool and not as your only decision maker in determining your investments. 

My blog is my opinion and personal experiences only. Never EVER invest money you cant entirely afford to lose. As Always do your own due diligence

Is that stock really moving or its it just a setup?

I want to address something that sometimes newer or inexperienced traders miss. Just because a stock price is fluctuating doesnt mean it is moving. It is very important that you pay attention to the amount of stock being bought or sold. A purchase of 50 shares moves the price just the same as a purchase of 5000 shares.
When a stock moves up or down on very small purchases or sells, it is mostly likely a person or promotion trying to "paint" the chart to fill in gaps and make it look solid.

Most of your trading platforms have detailed quotes that will include buy and sell amounts even if they are 15 or 20 minute delays. You can also pay attention to the bid and ask share amounts in your trading platforms to see whats on deck.

Remember the predator promoters think we are stupid and wont notice a buy or sell of a stock at a meager 5 or 10 dollars and we will look at only the price change. As always dig deeper and dont give in to the hype they will create.
