Investors should tend to try to go with a strategy that fits with the stock market's trend, unless there is a special situation play.
TTD's Breakout Stocks - Long are most suitable for aggressive investors seeking ideal entry points into leading stocks, especially during bull markets. They can do extremely well in bull markets with gains of as much as several hundred percent.
These stocks can also do extremely well during strong market

TTD Quick Trade Stocks - Long These are leading issues that have pulled back in recent days, but could move higher soon. They are most suitable for Aggressive Investors willing to trade short term. These stocks will do extremely well during market advances. They have about 74% win rate. During market rally sequences the win rate is even higher. The return is small 3% to 8% in just a few days.
TTD's Bargain Buy Trades - Long - Long Term. These are for conservative bullish Investors These long-term buys are ideally suited for entry into stocks on pull backs within overall up trend. These stocks can give a good return long-term especially during a bull market.
TTD also presents Stocks To Sell or Sell Short. These issues are suitable for aggressive investors willing to take short positions both as trades or for longer-term plays. These stocks will do very well during bear markets or market pull backs.
TTD's Bearish breakdown stocks to sell short. These issues have potential to fall sharply. They often show a technical breakdown and also some fundamental business problem such as weak earnings.
TTD's multi-media updates include a slide-show that presents charts and analysis at midsession. Some times TTD presents feature analysis on stocks and the market. TTD uses Windows Media Files. (WMV).
TTD also presents a "Breakout Watch List" that is up dated daily. This list consists of key stocks in position to breakout. A close watch of this list can put you in the stock just as it breaks out. A good idea is to study the list and be ready to move into a stock quickly as it hits its breakpoint.
TTD often suggests using stop buy orders to enter. It is very important to buy a breakout stock as close as possible to the breakpoint. The idea is to get "elbow room" if the stock should follow through to the upside. This is very important in being successful in making big money with breakout stocks.
It is also essential to have a stop loss strategy for all stocks in which positions are taken. Not every stock will work as expected. It is important for investors to "police" their portfolios and avoid getting trapped in any bad positions.
Quality rating of breakout Two key factors: 1 - Stock near all-time high in price or near a 52-week high. 2 - earnings growth current year is strong. The ideal play is a stock with an Above Average Quality Rating. The stock is near a new high and will have strong earnings. TTD's other ratings are Average and Below Average.
TTD also has special feature sections on Educational Tips on Investing.

TTD highlighted NJ as a breakout at our midsession video show on the Web Monday.
The stock, which generally shows on a chart with gap moves, pushed higher in the morning to cut across its breakpoint line. (see 10-minute chart)
The intraday breakpoint area showed strong volume. That is bullish indicating good demand for the stock.
The stock then trended sideways the rest of the day with a slight bias to the upside.

PBI reported earnings for the fourth quarter that was in line with Street expectations. However, going out to 2015 the company projected net of $1.85 to $2 a share.
That was disappointing to the Street which as a consensus estimate of $2.01 a share.

That was down from the prior block at $24 on 52,429 shares.
PBI operates in three segments: Mailing and integrated logistics, office solutions and capital services.
The company operates in the United States and outside the U.S.
Mailing and Integrated Logistics includes revenues from the rental of postage meters and the sale and financing of mailing equipment.
Office solutions includes revenues from the sale, financing, rental and service of reprographic and facsimile equipment. Capital services provides large-ticket financing and fee-based programs covering a broad range of products.
This year, the Street is looking PBI to show a 6% increase in net to $2.01 a share from $1.90 the year before.
PBI's daily chart shows the stock declining to around 24 in October. The stock then trended mostly sideways. Today, PBI gaps lower with big volume undercutting key technical support.
Strategy Opinion: TTD is targeting PBI for a decline to 17.50 within the next few months or sooner. A protective stop buy can be placed near 23.10.
