It was truly frustrating. I see this in many traders whom I talk with. The question always seems to be When the stock is rising where should I get in Let me go back several years and give you an answer that I was given by a self-proclaimed stock guru.

Many times when stocks are trending all by themselves against the better movement of a market indicator that is stuck it s often difficult to have confidence in such plays.

However because of the previous day s fades and a very narrow day we wanted to back off open plays. There were 4000 stocks that opened but how many open-break plays did well Not many and with aggression levels relatively low on this particular morning I wasn t looking for things like INRG
