There has been a lot of selling pressures in the market over the past few trading sessions for various reasons. We can't emphasize enough to follow your trading plan. Once a stock has hit your stop loss, high chance that a crucial support has been broken and you will want to cut loss. Capital protection is important in such a bearish market. Cheers.
should publish this article at TCB blog. in the future ... kumpul kumpul can publish book to sell liao! : )

Group Think Vs Trading Plan
I always want to write this article to tell my readers about the important of a Trading Plan and finally I got my son to help me to put it down on words.
This happens a lot in social circles and discussion boards. It comes from insecurity. You've seen it many times, someone comes into a conversation and they say things like, "I think this counter xyz going to move in a big way tomorrow, I heard it from Mr. ABC. You guys think it's a great opportunity right?". What seems to be an innocent and harmless "hearsay" stock tip is actually an individual seeking confirmation from his or her peers. That means that person, on a deep subconscious level, is actually not sure whether or not this is a good idea to trade in Counter XYZ. That person has no confidence in their own system or trading plan, or even worse - they have absolutely no plan to begin with. They want to hear people say to them, "Yeah! sure make money bro!", so that they can feel secure. Do not be like that person, as you have no reason to be.
You are armed with technical knowledge, and you have many opportunities to research a counter before going into a trade. Not even that is fool-proof, but a trader with a plan is bound to succeed more than an insecure group-thinking person. Why?
Simply because doing the hard work and analysis gives you a structure on how you will do your trading. After that you set your own trading plan, know your Entry Price ,Potential Rewards and Stop Loss level. You already have the three most important parts of information for when things go right, or when things go wrong. Meaning to say, you don't need to ask ANYBODY for confirmation on whether or not the trade is going to be a smart trade. This is because you know exactly when you want to go in, or when to pull out. If you stick with your trading strategy and plan, you need not worry about someone else's insecure statements like, "Aiyoo I think this counter going to go down further lah!". I've seen big groups of people being dragged down by one outspoken, insecure trader - because they were not strong-willed or disciplined traders themselves. With that in mind, always remember to separate your emotions from your technical analysis. It's impossible not to feel any emotion, but try to be as objective as possible. Stay away from insecure people trying to take other people into their black hole of insecurity. Avoid group think, and contribute / help other traders on a basis of confidence and discipline.
twobits, ...hahaha...thank you for the suggestion. No intention to compile it into a book to sell but we certainly have intention to post it somewhere for everyone to read. Thanks.
twoplus, we usually look for reversal patterns and we monitor for the selling pressure of the stock to ease off. We also need to establish the trend of the stock. If it has turned bearish, we might want to monitor first. During these times, stock selection becomes important.

profitman, lookin at this kind or bearish trend ,what should monitor for a buy signal?or at least stable foundation
EMICO: Currently trading sideways between support of 0.20 and resistance of 0.23. It has bottomed out at 0.17. It is unable to break the 0.23 successfully after a few attempts. Will likely remain range bound in the near term.
Hope for a meaningful technical rebound More and more to come this time around Index has already lost so much ground So many attractive stocks to be found And those that are fundamentally sound Surely will be heading northward bound Oh, which stock will be the jewel crown?
Anyway, for my readers this is today daily Report:
3/6/2015
ABRIC(7061) hit my target of $0.60 which I have locked in all my profit.
CENTURY (7117)-- It broke out of its immediate Falling Resistance Line and hit a high of $0.935 before profit taking kick in and close at the breakout level of $0.91.(The Falling Resistance Line value decreases as time goes by). Any weakness offers buying opportunity, in the event $0.91 fails to hold stronger support is at $0.895/$0.885. A break above $0.935 will try my target of $0.955/$1.00/$1.05/$1.10. Stop Loss if $0.85 is violated
EVERGREEN (5101)—It breaks above $1.20 today and as long it can stay above $1.20 it is expected to test my target of $1.28/$1.30/$1.35. Stop Loss if $1.15 is violated.
HUPSENG(5024) — It is expected to break above $1.10 to try $1.13/$1.20. I have raised my Trailing Stop to $1.07 to protect my profit.
PENTA (7160) –It is expected to scale higher to test its immediate Falling Resistance Line at $0.715 because recent consolidation looks over. A break above $0.715 it should be moving toward its Strong Resistance at $0.745 and beyond. For better understanding of this stock, please visit TCB—SIF or our FB at: http://tcb-sifs.blogspot.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/techcodebreaker/ Please join our FB group as many articles from us will be posted there in the future.
COUNTERS THAT I AM COLLECTING:
KPSCB(9121) — It broke out from its 6 months consolidation on 29/5 with increased volume which is very Bullish. It is at stage 2 of the new cycle and the advancement of price is expected to be more aggressive in the future. A break above $0.50 it is expected to test $0.535/$0.555. Any weakness during consolidation towards immediate support of $0.465/$0.46 offer buying opportunity for future play. Stop Loss if $0.44 is violated.
WTK (4243) —I have started to collect WTK today and will keep collecting on any weakness.It is expected to test $1.10/$1.15 soon. Stop Loss if $0.99 is violated.
