Trading Stocks in the Military

By What is the Dow - On May 20th, 2012 No Comments

If there is investing for women, retirees, and other groups, shouldn’t there also be one for the military? After all, life on active duty has a lot more restrictions and peculiarities than anything I can think of in civilian life. On a very basic level, I would assume irregular Internet access, limited ability to monitor the market throughout a day, shortage of time to do research and due diligence, and limited funds. How do you make the best of what you have to get ahead?

Clearly, day trading is not an option. And it’s not for lack of risk taking ability. I don’t see how you can be on active duty and have the time to watch the market during trading hours. But there are other things that can be as profitable, if not more.

Midcaps

As a rule, the smaller the stock, the more it fluctuates, and the easier it is to be stopped out or shaken out of it.

The same goes for low-priced stocks. Any stock can move up or down a dollar at any time. A buck is a buck. But a .00 stock going down to .00 constitutes a 20% loss, while the same .00 move in a .00 stock is only a 4% loss. Midcaps (those with market capitalization of between 0M and B) priced .00 and above that trade several hundred thousand shares a day fluctuate comparatively less and move in more orderly trends.

Once a move starts in earnest, it can last for weeks or months. No need to watch your stock(s) daily. In fact, the more you leave them alone, the better they do. The key is to catch them early on in the move. But how do you do that if you can’t be online when the stock is breaking out?

Stop and limit orders

Learn how to correctly place buy and sell stop and limit orders. Let’s say the stock you are looking at has a pivot of .73 but is currently trading at .11. You don’t want to miss the breakout but you know you will be away for the next two or three weeks. Put a GTC (good till cancelled) stop order to buy at .83. Once the stock gets up there, your order will be executed even if you are not there to “witness the execution” (sorry, just couldn’t help it…).

Same goes for sell orders. Once you buy a stock, your first order of priority is to protect yourself on the downside. Put a GTC stop order to sell at, say, .25 (10% below the pivot). If the breakout fails, you don’t need to be there to cut your loss. At the same time place a limit order to sell at, say, .03 (25% profit). Some brokers will let you enter both, with the first one cancelling the other once executed. Nothing is sweeter than coming home to a tidy little profit.

“Can’t kiss all the girls”

In this department, nothing beats Peter Lynch’s advice to invest in what you know. Why not start with defense stocks: GD, LLL, LMT, NOC? I am not saying any of these guys are good investments right now but if you are plugged in, you can detect emerging trends ahead of the crowd (purchase orders, new equipment, policy changes, etc.). All you need to do is train yourself, as an investor, to look at the information coming down at you with “how do I make money off it?”

If you just watch a handful of stocks on a regular basis, you will eventually develop a feel for them that will allow you to trade them profitably in any direction (up or down).

If you don’t want to limit yourself to the defense sector, you can still look around to see if any of the new products/services come from a publicly traded company. Are any of your pals into online gaming? Which games do they like? Who makes those? Any particular new products or services your pals are talking about? Who provides them?

Stock Market Trading Software Tips

By What is the Dow - On May 20th, 2012 No Comments

There are lots of different options out there in stock market trading software. This type of software can be used to give you better criteria for making stock trading decisions. It’s great for those who struggle to figure out where to place their money. This software ranges from totally automated systems that give you all sorts of details on trading in particular ways to lower key programs that just help you move your money from one type of investment to another. Here are some tips for choosing this type of software.

First, it’s important to make sure that you’re choosing stock market trading software that suits your style. No software out there is going to be totally qualified to make all your decisions for you. However, you can use certain software to make better choices, and some will give you more specific instructions. If you like to do your own research, though, you might work with software that gives you less information about specific investments and more about the types of investments you should be making.

You also need to make sure you can figure out how to use the software.

Some is very complex, requiring more than a basic knowledge of computer programs in general. Other software is really simple to use and doesn’t involve much more than reading email notices and making trades according to their advice.

Of course, the biggest piece of picking out software is making sure it’s actually effective. Stock market trading software can make all the claims for its efficacy in the world and not come close to living up to those claims. Don’t just rely on the word of the company who makes the software. Instead, spend some time checking out the actual numbers.

Before you take even the performance numbers at face value, though, make sure you know what they’re related to. For instance, a company can outperform a mutual fund and give itself a pat on the back even when the mutual fund lost money and the software broke even. What you really want is absolute returns that are positive most of the time.

Looking at performance numbers is a good way to decide between different software systems. Since they’re all based on different formulae, you’ll be able to see what they perform like by looking at the performance gains and losses.

Regardless of the direction of the market, we view every year as an opportunity to make money. By using our market timing software to navigate the markets’ short, medium, and long term trends, you have the potential to make money every year!

Shared Universe

By What is the Dow - On May 19th, 2012 No Comments

Definitions

There is no formalized definition of when the appearance of fictional characters in another author’s work constitutes a shared universe. Fiction in some media, such as most television programs and many comic book titles, is understood to require the contribution of multiple authors and does not by itself create a shared universe. Incidental appearances, such as that of d’Artagnan in Cyrano de Bergerac, may instead be considered literary cameo appearances. More substantial interaction between characters from different sources is often marketed as a crossover. While crossovers occur in a shared universe, not all crossovers are intended to merge their settings’ back-stories and are instead used for marketing, parody, or to explore what-if scenarios.

The term has also been used in a wider, non-literary sense to convey interdisciplinary or social commonality, often in the context of a “shared universe of discourse.”

Characteristics

The modern definition of copyright, especially under United States copyright law, considers the expansion of a previous work’s setting or characters to be a derivative work. Especially for material being considered for publication, this often necessitates licensing agreements. For this reason, some fan fiction and other amateur works written in established settings without permission, are sometimes distinguished from shared universe writings or even described as a “stolen universe”. However, fair use claims have been raised, and not all authors believe that fan fiction should be distinguished from other literature in this manner at all. In a process similar to brand licensing, the intellectual property owners of established fictional settings at times allow others to author new material, creating an expanded universe. Such franchises, generally based on television programs or film, allow for series of novels, video games, original sound recordings and other media. Not all shared universe settings are simply the expansion or combination of pre-existing material by new authors. At times, an author or group of authors has created a setting specifically for development by multiple authors, often through collaboration.

Especially when a shared universe grows to include a large number of works, it becomes difficult for writers to maintain an internally consistent continuity and to avoid contradicting details in earlier works. The version that is deemed official by the author or company controlling the setting is known as canon. Not all shared universes have a controlling entity capable of or willing to determine canonicity, and not all fans agree with these determinations when they occur. A fanon may instead find some degree of consensus within the setting’s fandom. Some writers, in an effort to ensure that a canon can be established and to keep details of the setting believable, employ tools to correct contradictions and errors that result from multiple contributors working over a long period of time. One such tool is retconning, short for “retroactive continuity”, where later adjustments result in the invalidation of previously-written material. The most severe form of retcon involves a wholesale rewrite of the groundwork for the entire setting. These reboots, most closely associated with DC Comics, are not always effective at resolving underlying problems and may meet with a negative reaction from fans. Contributors to expanded universes, also known as tie-in writers, have sometimes been stereotyped as “hacks” because such writing is perceived as less creative or of consistently poor quality. These stereotypes have been disputed by authors who consider contributing to a larger setting “intellectually demanding.”

Readers may also object when a story or series is integrated into a shared universe, feeling it “requir[es] one hero’s fans to buy other heroes’ titles” or leads to mischaracterizations and inappropriate comparisons.

Expansion of existing material

Cover of All Star Comics #3 (Winter 1940-1941), considered the beginning of the DC Universe

In 1941, writer Gardner Fox at All-American Comics (later part of DC Comics) created the Justice Society of America in All-Star Comics #3, credited with being the first superhero team-up and laying the groundwork for the DC Universe, the first comic book shared universe. By 1961, Marvel Comics writer and editor Stan Lee, working with artists Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, merged the bulk of the publisher’s comics characters into the Marvel Universe. Both settings have suffered from the creative difficulties of maintaining a complex shared universe handled by large numbers of writers and editors. DC has substantially altered its in-universe chronology several times, in series such as Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985, Zero Hour in 1994, and Infinite Crisis in 2005. As of 2007, Marvel has rebooted its continuity only once, in Spider-Man: One More Day. They instead set stories in an increasing number of alternate realities, each with an assigned number in a greater multiverse. DC and Marvel have also periodically co-published series in which their respective characters meet and interact. These intercompany crossovers have typically been written as self-limiting events that avoid implying that the DC Universe and Marvel Universe co-exist. Exceptions include 24 comics released under the metafictional imprint Amalgam Comics in 1996, depicting a shared universe populated by hybridizations of the two companies’ characters. Marvel has since referred to this as part of its setting’s greater multiverse by labeling it Earth-692.

The Star Wars franchise takes a unique view regarding the canon properties of its expanded universe, introducing a four-tier system based on compatibility with the six films. Star Trek canon is less well-defined, generally excluding not only licensed works such as books and video games and acknowledging that “even events in some of the movies have been called into question”. Furthermore, both franchises have blurred the lines between canon and non-canon content by adopting unofficial material into later official productions. The spin-off media making up an extension of the the universe originating in Doctor Who is particularly complex due to the permissive stance on licensing and canon taken by the BBC. This Expanded Universe has relatively little consistency given its division into audio plays produced by Big Finish and the BBC, the New Adventures universe novel, or a universe based on comics published in Doctor Who Magazine and other publications. Reviewer Robert F.W. Smith attempted to summarize the conflicting continuities:

As far as I understand it, the situation is this: the New Adventures universe is inside the bottle universe seen in Interference, which was built by BBC universe Time Lords, and in it, the NA Time Lords are all gone theye gone to another bottle and left the NA universe to the Gods/Kings of Space. Most of the New Adventures happened in the BBC universe anyway, except in that universe, the 7th Doctor was the reincarnation of the Other and Rassilon escaped to roam the universe in the BBC universe, he may or may not have been, and Rassilon probably didn. In the BBC universe, Faction Paradox, the Doctor and the Enemy between them have vaped the Time Lords, with the result that there are no longer any Time Lords in the BBC universe, except for five, the fundamental laws of the universe (the magic-and-science thing) have changed, and the Doctor is no longer a Time Lord at all originally but a crystal man named Soul from the end of time. Also in the BBC universe, an infinity of different universes have been released, which helpfully explains how all the shock companion-killings in the novels ever since Eternity Weeps either did or didn happen in our universe, according to whatever criteria you like, but Gallifrey didn survive in any of them. Despite this, Gallifrey will still be rebuilt in the BBC universe in some form, but it will presumably be much less powerful because it will now be a planet without the original special relationship with time, and it won have always been there. Where the Big Finish audios fit in is anybody guess; the new series can just about be assumed to follow on from the end of The Gallifrey Chronicles, even though the Doc says he a Time Lord not a crystal man from the end of time in the second episode. There.

Even Smith’s summary does not address spin-offs such as the Bernice Summerfield novels and the Faction Paradox series that are legally distinct from the origins of their characters in officially licensed novels. Many fans consider only the television series canon and all other media apocrypha. The television series has never explicitly acknowledged any of the spin-offs, partly because the BBC’s status as a public service broadcaster prohibits them from producing a programme that can only be fully understood by those who have purchased licensed products.

The expansion of existing material into a shared universe is not restricted to settings licensed from movies and television. For example, Larry Niven opened his Known Space setting to other writers initially because he considered his lack of military experience to prevent him from adequately describing the wars between mankind and the Kzinti. The degree to which he has made the setting available for other writers became a topic of controversy, when Elf Sternberg created an erotic short story set in Known Space following an author’s note from Niven indicating that “[i]f you want more Known Space stories, you’ll have to write them yourself”. Niven has since clarified that his setting is still to be used only “under restricted circumstances and with permission”, which Niven granted to the several authors of the Man-Kzin Wars series. By contrast, author Eric Flint has edited and published collaborations with fan fiction writers directly, expanding his 1632 series.

A setting may also be expanded in a similar manner after the death of its creator, although this posthumous expansion does not meet some strict definitions of a shared universe. One such example is August Derleth’s development of the Cthulhu Mythos from the writings of H. P. Lovecraft, an approach whose result is considered by some to be “completely dissimilar” to Lovecraft’s own works. Less controversial posthumous expansions include Ruth Plumly Thompson’s and later authors’ sequels to L. Frank Baum’s Oz stories and the further development of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation universe by Greg Bear, Gregory Benford, and David Brin.

Original settings

Promotional poster for Crossgen Chronicles, listing some of the interconnected titles in the Sigilverse.

Although DC and Marvel’s successful shared universe approaches to comics have set them apart from competitors in the industry, other companies attempted similar models. Valiant Comics and Crossgen both produced titles primarily set from their inception in a single, publisher-wide shared universe, known respectively as Unity and the Sigilverse.

Many other published works of this nature take the form of a series of short-story anthologies with occasional standalone novels. Examples include Robert Lynn Asprin’s Thieves’ World and C. J. Cherryh’s Merovingen Nights.

Role-playing games are inherently designed to include some aspects of the shared universe concept, as individual games are derived from the core material. Campaign settings, such as Dungeons & Dragons’s Faern, Dragonlance and Eberron, provide a more detailed world in which novels and other related media are additionally set. Living campaigns, including the RPGA’s Living Greyhawk or the AEG-sanctioned Heroes of Rokugan, provide an opportunity for individual games hosted worldwide to take part in a single continuity.

The influence of the Internet on collaborative and interactive fiction has also resulted in a large number of amateur shared universe settings. Amateur authors have created shared universes by contributing to mailing lists, story archives and Usenet. One of the earliest of these settings, SFStory, saw its spin-off setting Superguy cited as illustrative of the potential of the Internet. Another example is the furry-themed Tales from the Blind Pig created at the Transformation Story Archive, which differs from many amateur settings both by having an organized effort to maintain consistent canon and by having seen at least limited publication. Other early examples include the Dargon Project and Devilbunnies.

At least one publisher has introduced a division specifically for encouraging and handling shared universe fiction.

Animated universes

An animated universe is a derivative of the shared universe that applies to animated works, including animated television series and films, which share the same characters and continuity with each other; it may also derive from the characters and continuity of previous literary serial works, including comics, and may thus be termed by the literary work from whence it derived. Notable examples of the animated universe include:

DC animated universe (1992-2008)

Marvel animated universe (1992-2000)

Gundam “metaseries” (1979-present)
