| by Daniel R., Homemade Investors Saturday, July 5th, 2008 I hope that our American subscribers had a happy and safe Independence Day! Our family decided to stick around here for the festivities. Our house is only a block or two from the parade route, plus we have a spectacular view of the fireworks from our living room window, so we didn't need to travel much. It's been about a week since we've posted anything on the site. Not much has changed since my last Market Update, so I don't feel the need to repeat myself here. This update does have a purpose, however. I recently discovered a free, web-based course on Technical Analysis basics. Technical Analysis is the art/science of reading charts to determine what a stock or index is about to do next. I've personally found Technical Analysis to be a simple and reasonably predictable way of making money in the stock and commodities markets. As such, I use it to help me make nearly all of my trading decisions. If you're relatively new to stock trading, I'd suggest that you go through the course. It's quite short and it will help you understand the terminology and concepts featured on our website. Since the course is broken down into 12 parts, I might suggest going through it in multiple sittings, giving yourself time to process the information in between. Here's the link: http://www.investopedia.com/university/technical. Also, I'll be posting this to the Resources section of the site. Enjoy your weekend! ******************************** To receive our FREE EMAIL NEWSLETTER, visit http://www.HomemadeInvestors.com.
