First off I want to state that I am by no means a professional trader or a guru.  You should not take anything I say on this website as a reason to buy or sell a security.  This is strictly for entertainment and education purposes.  What I plan to do with this blog is document not only my trades, but my journey into becoming a profitable trader.  If you follow along or are reading this post by looking through the archives you will essentially see my day to day goals and progress to success.  Again, I am not a pro and you should not take any of this advice as fact and should instead take it and research or test it yourself.

With that out of the way this is what I will be posting:

Daily Trading Journal:
I will be keeping a daily trading journal in excel and I plan to post parts, if not all of it here on the blog.  This is for me to keep track of what I am doing and to give others an idea of what is possible.  I will at least by posting my trades, and possibly some win/loss data.  My trades aren’t all that important to you – your trades are important to you.

Interesting Finance News:
I am constantly reading finance and stock news and intend to post commentary on interesting news articles I find around the media.  I will occasionally find an article I found useful, interesting or just plain crazy and post on it.

Market Watches & Stock Picks:
I will be posting daily watch lists and stocks that I am interested in at that given day.  You are welcome to use this information to generate ideas, but please DO NOT trade them simply because I may possibly be trading them.

Tips For Newbies:
I have  a lot of interests and I’ve always found it hard to find a good resource for information to get started. My goal in part with this website is to write a complete newbie guide to trading.  This will be built over time with key posts I write about the progress of becoming a trader.  I hope this to be a true help to new traders and will help them with some of the mistakes I made along the way.

Book Reviews:
One thing I’ve learned this far in trading, investing – whatever, is that you never stop learning.  I personally love reading no matter the subject, but since starting my trading journey I have read a ton of related books.  Each book I read I will review on the blog and give you a personal and honest recommendation.

That’s pretty much the structure of the blog.  I will add more as things progress, but that is my main focus and goal of the blog.

Happy trading,
Keith
