"NEVER follow others" | what exactly do you mean by rule 2? don't chase?

don't chase a stock up if you missed the move
a catalyst is some event that moves the stock, eg. earnings, buy out, announcements, politics, etc..

your rules seem very universal. a chart is a chart to me, i trade almost all futures off the same rules, fundamentals always follow technical!

AMRN's PR firm had put up a website url for AMR101 (trademark Vascepa) saying it had been approved and showed a 'draft' label which looked really good. They took the site down almost immediately after people found the URL. And as always if ur in this stock, sell on the pop or get burned Quote:

If your starting off trading options, you can get by with 2k and make some serious returns. Securities? 5k min. Margin/leverage , depending on buying power, 3kish.... keep in mind the less capital you have the more risk you have to take if that makes any sense.. lol
