Microsoft started 2012 with bullish mood but ended 2012 loosing all that gain. This loss shows failure of Microsoft windows 8. Microsoft was unable to make a successful product.

 

Earnings forecast for MSFT for the year 2012-13 is also very low. Average earnings forecast for next 5 years is around 10%/year and current year will acheive only about 3%.

 

By looking at current situation, MSFT will, most probably, show more bearish moves this month.

It seems to be getting up from its undervalued position in the past few weeks..

Many Analysts are now recommending a near term value of 32.0 on it..

YTD data is Bullish too.

Yes this is correct. Technical indicators r also in favor of strong bullish moves.

It looks like windows 8 failure has not done much damage. Actually microsoft is able to maitain high level of liquidity and fall in growth of one business sector has not affected much because of growth in sales of other products by microsoft (server tools and online services etc).

Even, in the past, cashflow was never a problem but that cash wasnt properly managed in the recent past which resulted in less than expected results.

At this time performance is just ok. We can see a recovery but company can do much better. By looking and reading at different sources, one can see hold policy" from investor's point of view.

Afterall its a bluechip. Even if bluechips go down, they regain their original value with time...Same goes for Apple as it will retake its value to the mid 500's or upto 600.

This week started with bullish mood and MSFT touched highest point since 30-jan. But longterm trend is ranging. I suggest "hold" but many investors r hopping this time about a break above resistance levels which can lead to new heights.

I dun see any clear trend in next few months. But it wont be 25, for sure. MSFT has already shown much decline in previous year and I think it will find support at 26. They, soon, will launch something to support it.

    • IMHO, the best feature of the Double Seven entry strategy is that buys and does not sell in equity-based markets. Large scale selling short in the primary stock markets requires a financed loan of shares from a broker, so it's less common than buying. Therefore, selling in a stock-tracking market generally isn't profitable--even where derivative instruments provide cheaper access to selling.
    • Another chart type... Footprint. 
    • I would forget about tinkering with lot sizes in the short-term. I only increase my lot size when it's justified by my growing capital (closed profit). Adjusting lot size on the fly would imply that I somehow know the specific probability of each individual trade succeeding--which I don't. So, I focus on the overall statistical performance of my strategy over every 6 months. This doesn't require anything clever. As an example, choose a chart structure (15 minute, 1 hour, Renko, range bar, etc.) where price swings are identifiable to your eye. Load a MACD oscillator onto the chart. Note that there are two MACD's floating around online. The "old" MACD uses a weighted EMA in its calculations while the "new" MACD uses a regular MACD in its calculations. If you're using the old one, focus on the main line crossing the signal line and ignore the zero level. If you're using the new one, focus on the main line crossing the zero level and ignore the signal line. These are your entries. Your dynamic exit target is the opposite crossover of whichever MACD lines you're using. Now for the most challenging part... stopouts. You need to determine the number of pips/points/ticks at which price traveled against your entry and did not return in favor of your entry for all trades. These stopout statistics can be collected with pen and paper, which I have arduously done in the past. This is much easier if you can code, backtest, and auto-optimize the stop level. The idea is that your dynamic takeprofit is theoretically infinite, and your stop is fixed at a level that is statistically favorable to you. Although this isn't really "money managment," it certainly manages your money.
