hi guys coming from the forex world where I’m limited to a few currency pairs, I’m looking to expand the markets available to my self by trading stocks. The thing that is holding me back is that there are literally thousands of stocks to look at. I am looking for someone to recommend a few stocks to look at, I’m mostly a long term technical trader (i.e i look at the chart lay down my indicators and trade regardless of what is being traded lol..)

Good theory…even better if you start with good stocks ( at least promising !) So…how about companies in raw materials? Even with Olympics over , still a huge amount of ” earthquake re-building” to do.
BHP..RIO..PCU..FCX…JRCC…
Energy, nat gas, refiners? ( hurricanes and winter coming) CNQ..HERO..SD..WNR…UNG..EP…
Shippers? ( handling both the materials and the oil ) FRO…NAT…TBSI…DRYS…GNK..GMR
…or get into the Christmas shopping spirit early ..(.if the charts say so ): AAPL…GME…NIKE..
Here are the symbols for a few. You can find them at yahoo finance:
EEB, EEM, EFA, IWB, MVV,QLD, UWM.
These are ETFs which trade like stock, but have numberous stocks within the ETF.
mnc, coa, finl, geoi, eng, dxpe, mlr
If you are a technical trader, just pick a chart and start trading. What does it matter which one. If the chart looks good, trade it.
Do the same with stocks ((i.e i look at the chart lay down my indicators and trade regardless of what is being traded lol..)).
