Lucky you: Today they\u2019re putting their knowledge to work by answering specific questions from listeners.<\/p>\n<p>From inquiries about watchlists to accounts to dealing with emotions in trading, this episode is action-packed and full of invaluable information for traders of all ages and all levels.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some listener questions that Tim and Stephen tackle this week:<\/p>\n<p>Matt: As a new trader, Matt can create a strong watchlist &#8230; but he\u2019s confused about how to evolve it. He\u2019s had good luck with his watchlist foundation but hasn\u2019t had much luck adding new stocks to the list. That\u2019s especially true in the short period of time in the morning before the market opens.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s a trader to do?<\/p>\n<p>As Tim points out from the get-go, not every trader is the same. If this method works, why mess with it? But, that said, both Tim and Stephen understand the desire to keep a watchlist moving with the market. So they both offer some tips for stalking stocks and how to watch for action in the afternoon to help inform watchlist choices for the following morning.<\/p>\n<p>Stephen talks about his specific tips for trading hot stocks and some of the things he looks for, including low float, high volume, a hot sector, good news, and a solid catalyst.<\/p>\n<p>Trevor: Like Stephen, Trevor lives in Dubai! Here\u2019s what he wants to know: What\u2019s the best account for a beginner and a non-U.S. resident?<\/p>\n<p>Stephen is quick to say that he\u2019d love to talk it over with Trevor over a beer &#8230; as long as Trevor\u2019s paying, of course.<\/p>\n<p>All jokes aside, Stephen actually has some thoughts on opening a new account. He and Tim talk about the importance of building your \u2018knowledge account\u2019 before building up a pain tolerance for loss. And of course, at first, a good choice for an account might be one that requires no balance at all \u2014 a paper trading account!<\/p>\n<p>Quick note: Curious about paper trading? With a StocksToTrade 14 day trial, there\u2019s no better time to check out this stock screener\u2019s awesome paper trading platform!<\/p>\n<p>Bram: Bram is 16, from the Netherlands, and had nothing to do with the writing of Dracula. He also wants to know this: How can you control your emotions in trading, especially when you find yourself in a bad position during a trade?<\/p>\n<p>Ah, the eternal trading crisis. Stephen himself would love to know the answer to this important question, as it\u2019s a struggle he faces frequently.<\/p>\n<p>Traders of all levels will benefit from Tim and Stephen\u2019s perspective on this important topic, including in-depth thoughts on how traders put themselves in a raw emotional state by not defining entries and exits before entering a trade.<\/p>\n<p>Kirill: As a 19-year-old trader, Kirill can\u2019t short sell or sell on margin (you have to be 21 to do these things). His question: What can Tim and Stephen recommend as alternatives?<\/p>\n<p>Yep, there are limitations to being a young trader. But honestly, these strategies can spell trouble for traders, so maybe those limitations are for the best. Tim and Stephen both have some real talk for young traders like this, including how these constraints can actually be positive.<\/p>\n<p>As a new trader, it may not be in your best interest to trade sketchy stocks in the riskiest ways possible. They suggest some positive alternatives, including how to work with Nasdaq stocks with unusual volume hovering around 52-week highs. Trades like this don\u2019t have to be boring!<\/p>\n<p>Got a question?<\/p>\n<p>Psst &#8230; got a question?
