Maybe too much charting imho. Do some of you base your investment decisions solely on the formations of a chart?

Any way about announcements about deals: hehehe, there are now only 6 trading days left before the end of this quarter, and counting lol. I think the company now about the level of expections and hope they provide us with news asap, one way or another.

These aren't investment decisions, these are trading decisions. I invest in index funds with low fees and better performance than fund managers.

If you're investing in APG, make sure its well balanced.

I know a lot about fundamental analysis, more than I know about technical analysis. I lost a lot of money relying in fundamentals, because it relies on interested parties telling the truth in a timely manner to protect YOUR interests. Unfortunately it doesn't happen a lot.

There was a big debate about this kicked off by Clark Kent a couple of months ago. Worth looking up if you want more info as to why we rely so much on charts.

Getting to the nub of your question, I first look at charts, if it doesn't meet my charting criteria, I don't bother wasting any more time. If the trend looks OK, I spend a few minutes looking at the underlying story with a bloody skeptical eye. If it starts to tank, I really give the fundamentals a going over.
