Not literally secrets in that there's some secret sauce to all this, but in that this kind of thing is very personal and it's not something that's super comfortable talking about. I've been fortunate enough to have mentors along the way who have been willing to share their secrets with me and help me figure out how I want to do things. It's up to you and you alone to recognize this and to seek help. You'd think there should be a ton of great articles out with tips and tricks for this kind of stuff, but there's not. It hit me real hard when I started getting serious about my trading logs and trade analysis.

I don't understand why I've never read any articles from almost anyone in the blogging side of trading that focuses on this kind of stuff. But what's more important is how they got there, not why they're there now.

They always want to teach about what makes them so good and what you can do to be like them. Not many gurus are teaching or writing about the ways they were able to become more organized, productive, and efficient in their research and studies to get where they are today. One of the most difficult, and under covered, topics of becoming a succesful investor is to find a way to balance the ability to take in mass amounts of information, retain it, and be able to recall it when the time comes.

This is simply a list of the companies I am researching, have posted enough about that make me want to track them, saw very attractive charts for, or read enough about that warrants me taking the time to make this consolidated list of tickers to keep all my ducks in a row.
