Kevin S asked:


I have been watching the stock market for months and done my research, but I am only 18 and don’t understand enough about inner-company economics and finances to make good decisions based on that (I will be a finance and management major, though, so maybe at a later time). On the other hand, I am great at technical analysis. I figure since mid-caps better returns than large caps, and are not as risky as small and nano caps, I fill focus on them (I just set up my Roth IRA). My plan is to research and use my technical analysis tools and indicators (I know they are not extremely effective, but I only need to be right maybe 70% of the time for it to be worthwhile), and stick to mid-caps that are listed on the S&P 500. I figure that these hand-chosen mid-caps have the best finance records, industries, and since they are hand chosen by experts, they should increase my rates of return. What do you think? Thanks!
