Hi Katherine,

Thanks for your reply.  I'm more interested in understanding market
indicators, reading/understanding charts (understanding the price to volume
relationship), and investment methodologies.

I guess due to the market, I'm more reluctant in investing in a company even
if it has good fundementals.  I've read a book on CANSLIM from O'Neil (I've
read a few interesting emails on IBD) and firmly believe in what he says in
researching a companies fundementals (ie. earnings, growth, institutional
ownership, industry ranking, etc.), but I'm still a bit skeptical on how
companies chart's tend to follow a trend (cup & handle, head & shoulders,
etc.) when they have these good fundementals in a bullish market (He tends
to emphasize that this technique only works in a bull market).  I'm sure my
skeptism is probably due to me still being new to this and the fact that we
are still in a bearish market.

I realize this will take some time for me to learn and I'll probably have to
get my feet wet to understand this more thoroughly.  This may sound dumb,
but I guess I'm looking for some advice from people on how to make that
first step into investing.   Hopefully, this has helped.

Thanks again,

Christian

Hi Christian,

Welcome to the group.

What kinds of information are you looking for specifically? General market
history, reading market conditions, money management, trading psychology,
specific investing methodologies, reading charts, understanding fundamental
indicators and/or reading financial statements, etc., etc.?

There's a world of information out there and plenty of good books and
websites on any one of them. Once you give us a good idea of what you're
trying to achieve, folks here can chime in with their favorites.

Katherine

Hello all,

I wanted to thank all of you for helping out in my
quest to learn more about CANSLIM investing in the
market.  I have especially learned a great deal more
since joining this group (joined a couple of months
ago), but still feel like an amateur compared to most
of you and am still a little reluctant in asking
questions.

Instead, I'll ask for advice.  What would
most or some of you recommend as a good way to learn
more about the market and more importantly becoming
more confident in investing?

Thanks again for your help!

Christian
