Energy Watch - 1/21/2015

A quick look at some of the energy stocks that could present some near term swing long trading opportunities.

Couple weeks ago we started to look at gold after we have observed a possible near term bottom type of price action. Today, we will take a look at the oil or black gold.

Don’t Kid Ourselves

One of the most difficult emotion to control as a trader is our ego. Our ego has the tendency to subconsciously instill a bias on what we want to see instead of accepting what we see in front of us. In trading, this bias can cause us to believe the market should do what we believe it should do. When we are in this mindset, we tend to hold on to a trade that went against us or we try to force a trade when it is not there. These behaviors usually end up badly and cause great damage to a trader’s capital account. Worse yet, it can devastate the trader’s confidence. To avoid falling into this mental trap, a trader needs to remind him/herself with these two clichés; “Trade what you see!” and “Trade what is in front of you!”
