Just to throw these out there - maybe generate some discussion:

1) What's your approach? What types of info do you look at when opening/closing a position? I tend to rely on technicals (charts) and insider trades posted on public forums. I also keep a eye on IPOs.

2) Are there some technicals you look to more than others? (Bollinger, MACD, Parabolic SAR, etc.)

3) If you're a non-pro, like me, what brokerage firm do you use? I use Ameritrade.

4) For you pros/experienced traders, any books/sources you'd recommend? I've got Barron's and the WSJ.

I've been trading options (mostly selling puts) for several years but now trade stocks mostly. Personally, I'm not interested in what to buy/sell, but I would like to learn more about how others approach a trade, what others look at/for, etc.
