Your videos with thinkorswim tutorials were always my favorite Cameron you do A great job as an instructor . Very glad after the sale to Schwab you are still here to teach
Wow! Thanks for that. I'm certainly glad to still be here, too! ^CM
Thanks, Cam! The plan was extremely helpful. This is the lesson I needed to make stock trades in my long-term investment account. It answered my questions about OCO orders. Liked!
I love to get feedback like this. So glad to hear you found my webcast helpful. Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next one! ^CM
Great job for the 5 step process for beginners here Cameron. Well done. Keep it up
Thanks! And thanks for watching! ^CM
Thank you Cameron, this was great refresher. I wish I could join live but I am glad this available to watch at a later time.
Yep, these archives make it easier to fit a viewing into a busy schedule, but in any event, glad you liked it! See you in the next one! ^CM
Thank you sir, God bless you for sharing your knowledge.
My pleasure! And thank you! ^CM
Thanks, Cam! Great webcast as always. I miss being able to join live, but I'm grateful they are archived quickly. I'll join live again when I can.
Sounds great. Enjoy the archives in the meantime. Thanks! ^CM
I've turned bearish on the mania at this time. I'm getting excited with red candles, too!
I'm confident you're not alone. Some traders certainly see potential in both directions. Whatever the case, good luck! ^CM
That Costco order definitely hit good. haha
Ha! Yep, some do. Thanks for watching! ^CM
Thanks Cameron great lecture.
My pleasure! Glad you liked it! ^CM
Thank you Cameron. The more I learn from your videos, the less scared I am getting to do actual trades instead of paper trades. HOWEVER, I wish you would cover "fees" and "commissions" on a trade as an example. If I placed a successful trade using my $50 I have funded, and it was a bullish trade and I made $10 profit, is there a commission on that if I just let the profit stay in my account, or is there a commission when I withdraw the money from my account? If the commission exceeds the profit, then I'm not trading. Please explain this aspect of trading.
Glad to clarify. With online stock trades, there is no commission, regardless of profit or loss. With online options trades, the commission is $.65 per contract upon entry and again upon exit. This pricing schedule may be helpful with addressing any further questions regarding fees or commissions: www.schwab.com/pricing. As always, thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next one! ^CM
Always check reinvest dividends unless you are close to retirement and need the dividends paid to you for your income stream
Thanks, Cam. I'm Jack. I've been a Schwab client for over 10 years
Hello, Jack! Great to have you as a viewer, and it's certainly my pleasure to deliver these webcasts. See you in the next one! ^CM
There may be only one thing that needs to be added: a news catalyst, such as earnings, a new product, a new boss, etc., that helps fuel a fast, robust rise or fall in the stock. What do you think? I've usually had a successful trade when indicators and news line up.
You've raised a solid point. This is an example of combining fundamental analysis with technical analysis, which plenty of traders and even investors certainly do. With that said, this series focuses exclusively on technical analysis, so I do not attempt to address potential additional fundamental considerations. Thanks for the comments! ^CM
Why not use a trailing stop? Maybe with a % drop...
That's yet another potential variation on the theme of trade planning. Some traders prefer trailing stops, while others tend to lean into their own charting experience (trailing stops pay no attention to new technical developments.) As always, it comes down to trader preference. ^CM
good good1
Thanks, again! ^CM
As a former TD client, it's fabulous to see you here Cameron! We're back in business!
