While I like to keep things short and simple when it comes top technical indicators, I continue to look for tools that help interpret the charts. Recently I have been spending time with a momentum indicator that I am finding to be quite useful. Being a New Toy junkie I have to be very careful about indicators because they all have a niche and or specialty. Paralysis of analysis can set in quickly if you are not careful. Having swung way too far in the past, I gained perspective when I began to see the tremendous overlap and redundancy of most indicators. At that point I narrowed my focus and priorities to:
1. The picture. ie. The chart itself (lines, patterns, moving averages etc.) 2. Overbought and oversold characteristics i.e. Stochastics and Wilder's Relative Strength Indicator (WRSI) 3. Divergence i.e. Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) 4. Candlesticks and Volume
These cover just about every reasonable angle you may want to evaluate. I have held tightly to this simplified and efficient team and it has served myself and my students well. So why branch out now? I have been a fan of Wells Wilder (WRSI) for some time and when I began to look closely at his Directional Indicators I became intrigued. I have played with them for while now and would like to introduce you to them. My advice is still to keep it simple. There are well over a hundred indicators and studies out there and you have to be careful of the "Camel's Nose in the Tent" if you know what I mean.

Tips for Mastering the Art of Professional Sales
Always get feedback. It is preferable if you can get feedback personally either through surveys or actual conversations with clients but if not, do what you can to know what your customers thought about with your performance. Learn how to handle criticism constructively and using it to improve your selling techniques.
Listen to your customers. Feedback is listening to what they have to say afterwards but it is important that you listen to their comments prior and during your sales presentation. Customers are always right and you will do well to remember this.
Listening not only means hearing their words but making the effort to understand them. Be interested in what they have to say. If you are not interested and it is showing, you are not going to make a sale no matter how good your product is.
Do your research. If you are lucky, you will have an hour to prepare and researching about your customers. But if you have to sell instantaneously then it is important that you learn how to decipher body language. With research, you will be able to determine what kind of approach to use and whether to use formal or informal language when speaking to them.

The closer we get towards the Christmas season, many of us are beginning to think about the things that we want to achieve in 2008? We will be thinking of New Years resolutions that we are definitely going to keep, as well as the goals and ambitions that we are certainly going to make happen next year.
Did you know that 67% of us will have given up our New Years resolutions, and given up on our goals by 28th February, and one in five of us would have lost our resolve even within the first week? That is a lot of people giving up on themselves. So what if you went into your new year already on your way to achieving your goal? Already having put the wheels in motion, passed some of those milestones and starting the New Year motivated and confident about being successful this time? How do you think this would make you feel?
Setting goals is becoming commonplace in today's society, both in the workplace as well as in our personal lives, so what is the secret to ensuring that we are successful in achieving them?
Make a plan We have all been there, lying awake at night with all these ideas whizzing around in our head. All those thoughts and bits of a plan of how we are going to achieve something, like: "I must remember to speak to this person", "I must remember to buy this", "I must book to attend that event", "how do I want my website to look?","Who am I going to get to do it?" And on and on the questions build and the list inside our head grows, until the point where we create such an immense muddle, that now we are terrified of the goal, and no longer believe that we can achieve it.
Putting a plan down on paper, and writing a step by step route to achieving your goal enables you to see clearly what you need to do to get there. Doing this gives you a much better success rate of achieving your goal.
