I get mine from a few areas.
1. I have a financial adviser that gives me tips on long-term stocks. Right now I'm long-term in Apple and The Trade Desk.
2. For short termers, I check google article over the weekend and occasionally during the week and write down the stocks that look to have some promise. I got into Idex and FMCI/FSLY a week ago and am keeping those this week.
3. I study charts on each of the stocks that I liked it.
4. I go on yahoo discussion forums for that specific stock and read some of the shareholders that own the stocks' opinions on news on the stock. Sometimes they give you inside info on upcoming
PR news.
5. I usually pick 2-3 to keep an eye on during the week and focus on them. If you start focusing on too many, you can get into a habit of trading too much and get wishy-washy. Just gotta stick with two or three and pull the trigger.
Give you an example...when I first started trading, I was trying to trade 8 or 9 a week. I ended up losing my ass because every time a stock went up, I switched over. As soon as I did, it dropped, then I moved to another one that was moving up and the same thing. It's hard to keep jumping from one stock to another during a day and make money.
