we're here to help and our goal is to streamline things and give useful education so that you can more effectively start trading our trade ideas. Steve and I put a lot of work into them and it's a shame more people don't do them. 

    One thing we're going to try to do is limit the number of new ideas.  Realize that's easier said than done because if we see a good idea we like to throw it out there and we don't know which ideas will go, sometimes our favorites for the day don't do much and one of our average ideas does better.  However that said I know some of you get overwhelmed with the number of ideas even though I tell you not worry about that and just pick a few, we are going to try and limit the number down. I'm also going to try and add a corresponding 60 min chart to a lot of the ideas so you can better see areas for potential stops i.e. higher lows and better triggers than what show up on the daily charts

    Matt and Steve, 

    Thanks for the work you guys do and your efforts to constantly improve the service. Personally, I like the idea of less ideas with more detail, such as adding the 60 min chart and more details explaining possible entry choices, stops and targets. Not sure what your universe of stocks for trade ideas is, but maybe you can reduce that a bit with some filters such as minimum volume requirements (avoid thinly traded stocks), minimum price ($1.00+), minimum APTR (Average Percent True Range - if you want a certain level of volatility in the picks so they move), maybe only show the highest probability patterns/set-ups, etc. It does get a bit overwhelming with so many choices, and when you start tracking the trades that take a little longer to trigger the list can get quite long quickly.

    Focus on tight patterns (or bases)  which allow for objective entries with tight stops - I suggest you take time and review many past setups and see what type of patterns you like to trade.  You can easily shift down to a 60 minute charts on your own - get in the habit of doing it yourself since that's how it becomes engrained versus someone telling you.  Does that make sense?  That's how you learn by doing.
