Wow -- if you expect to make a profit in your 1st year , you are in for a dose of reality  - you will find its not the plan you have to sort out but yourself  - wonderfull learning oppurtinity this trading , to drag out your short comings!


But to answer your question

first off KISS

Trade ONE stock only at a time --- after a while you will get to Know it, feel it everyday movements ahead of time -- you sort of become one with it --- if you have to many stocks in a open position or on watchlist you will not be able to do this !



Thought the 3 plans Wilson oullined where not a bad start -- he carries on further in "the next step"


But all i have done over the past 10years is keep a small watch list of Medium Cap stocks in a  consolidation phase --- which do not have a great amount of previouse highs  (to much resistance if they go up) -- have a far amount of daily vol (don,t get caught when you want to sell)

Wilson goes into detail in points i am outling


1: check your watch list DAILY

2: Check OBV -- is accumilation starting -- if so seperate this stock/s into    another watch list

3:  We know use the 2nd watch list

4:  Look out for patterns ( triangles etc) -- increasing Vol

5: NOW comes the important bit --- If a stock starts to breakout(on Vol) --use Count Back Lines Before a Entery -- this will also give you your S/T stop

4: If it continues UP -- beaware of the points that S/T  traders have set

5: If it continues to rise  past these points then you probably have a new trend in place -- GMMAs now take over -- adjust your STOP  on C/B & ATR

6: Generally there will be a S/T "pull-back" before the trend gets underway--

    cleared out the S/T traders

7: Now just hitch a ride on the stock (adj Stop ) -- watch daily as this stock   

    hits important points eg: 21ma , trend lines, ADX , price compression ---    

go back -what happened before ?


8: Whilst this is going on keep following your watchlists ,so as to begin to understand these stocks --- when the position you have is safely underway --bring in another one


Get a copy of the bible  Edwards - " The Technical Anaysis of Stock Treads "

 7 th Edit  --- no plans -- Just T/A @ ITS BEST


But none of the above is of any use unless you apply stops & money managment !  


Guppy's Trend Trading gives a detailed Plan (monthly Trade) -- allthough Shares mag is not around , the same principal applies with Mags,newspapers etc



Cheers
