Investing in Today's Market

[StockTrader]

I know, it sounds like I am about to give a bit article with all sort of tips.

Actually, I was curious if we have any J$ users that trade on a daily or even weekly basis?

I have always enjoyed watching the market, and fantasizing about the perfect trades. Personally, I am favorable towards mutual funds for longer term investments [i.e - two or more years before selling]. However, those are just what I said they were, investments. I would like to become a part-time trader. Perhaps I make only $100-$200 extra month. Whatever the amount is, I would just like to learn.

I have really been taking a look into LUV as they are one of the stronger airlines in a weak airline market. I mean, you have to feel good knowing that you're paying $50 USD per barrel of oil, instead of $140+ like the other airlines, right?

Anyway, to repeat myself, do we have anyone out there that trades regularly?

I don't trade yet, but I too would like to.
I use the stock simulator game at investopedia.com to play around and learn a litte.
we could even set up a game for J$ if anyone was interested.

I dont day trade but I hold a few stocks, that a cycle through the up and downs on a quarterly basis or so. Mostly spec plays. once one blows up, I immediately jump out, and try and find the next one. Similar to gambling, but involves a little bit of homework, mixed with a little luck I guess.

I started only a year ago, and I cant believe how easy it is to trade online. Its really fun. You just have to go in, and set aside a certain amount of money, and prepare yourself to lose it all. If you need the money to pay your mortgage or something, this isnt for you.
