Would your audience like to learn about the impact and implications of new technology – minus the hype? Then David Ticoll may be the speaker for you.

David Ticoll has a 30-year history as a business/technology strategy guru, entrepreneur and policy analyst. He has led dozens of national and international research initiatives. The theme: how emerging technologies change our personal lives, our Business Strategies, and our public agendas.

David has ridden the big waves: the personal computer revolution, open systems, the Internet, and Web 2.0. David is also a lifestyle technology aficionado of what works, not what’s trendy – in his city home, his cottage, his travels, and in between.

David identifies what really matters and what doesn’t. Rather than oversell or scare his audiences, David’s engaging presentations illuminate personal, career, business, and community choices that reflect the benefits and risks that technology brings.

Topics that David speaks about include: mass collaboration and real life, economic meltdowns, globalization, innovation, technology careers, internet safety, and personal technology.

David is a Research Fellow at the University of Toronto Knowledge Media Design Institute and Executive Director of the Canadian Coalition for Tomorrow’s ICT Skills. He is a director of the Information Technology Association of Canada and the Kids Internet Safety Alliance.

David was the founder and CEO of Digital 4Sight, a Toronto-based international research company and think tank. He is the author of Digital Capital: Harnessing the Power of Business Webs (with Don Tapscott and Alex Lowy), and The Naked Corporation: How the Age of Transparency Will Revolutionize Business (with Don Tapscott). He was a business/technology columnist at The Globe & Mail and a number of technology industry periodicals.

Stock Market/401K exit strategy

Tuesday, June 22, 2010 posted by admin

http://trade-technicals.blogspot.com

Video – Stock Market Exit Strategy —- Do you understand yours? Great poker players use them. Strategies like money management and selection of where to be aggressive with your plays. The combination of them both can make for great or terrible results. Many gamblers in poker, sports, blackjack, stocks have been known to win or lose a lot of money. That is because the winners are skilled enough where they can overcome the odds and make profits. Unskilled players will be on the short end of the stick due to being under skilled and poor risk management. Therefore do the best research you can on the internet and try to attempt to find people you can trust from any and all the sources you encounter. This way you are able to find the right books, videos, people and web pages you need. This is why my personal guess for best classes are real commodities that can hold value over a reasonable period of time. Silver has long term holding value as it can be held like money and passed on through several generations. Sometimes, playing at a casino can be very fun and that is why it is great these financial institutions let us play. The sad truth is many people are putting up a majority amount of their money into this casino and they do not even realize that it is there. The worst part is that the casino you go to or play online contains bet sizes that are much lower with higher short term risk. What is smarter however? Putting most of your money into these equity accounts, or taking a certain percentage of that money and having a wild weekend in Vegas. If you lose money, its like losing a dozen percent on stocks (or much less). If you are playing stocks and winning, that would mean you are better than the average player and good enough to beat the rake (spreads and commission fees). This means you still need an exit strategy for the game of getting out of this dollar. Time is lower each day and anyone that has dollars in paper and computer databases will be in trouble.

Financial advisers use equities to trade stocks. Because they have done a terrific job of not letting people know that this type of trading is in fact casino trading. The proof is in the many people whom have lost their shirts on poor equity trading and pension funds being hammered. Many sold for losses or received gains that did not surpass inflation. Remember for every winner there always has to be a loser and the house always wins in the casino.

Technically speaking the long term strategy on chart patterns is for the 50 day moving average to be declining for two days and a close below it. This means if you decide to use this method for selling longs it would be smart to be active trading the following day and at any point you see that it will close below the 50 then sell by 3:59pm EST as this pattern could result in a 2% gap down type of day or worse.
