It’s official: this newbie investor is an MBA candidate, enrolled in classes, and I have no idea when I’m graduating! Really. I don’t know.

Someone Said to Watch the Candlesticks?
My burning question is this: How do I know when to sell and when to buy?

My First Bet
Well, I’ve done something new this week: I placed my first white-collar bet. I’m not exactly swimming in a stream of endless capital, and I’ve never even placed a bet in a casino!
