Hello

I find myself frequenting this section but it seems I am the only one who has no idea what a MACD, SRI or whatever is. I know a lot of this is technical analysis, but is there anyway for a layman to understand this so he can grasp the conversation and (crazy I know!) be able to join in with his own?

Thanks, I think this post might help others too

Double click/highlight the word/abbreviation you don't understand, for instance "MACD."
Right-click it, and from the drop-down menu, chose "Search Google for 'MACD'."
Pick one of the first results, here:


This works for 70% of the stuff.  When you get junk results, add "define."  If still junk, try adding "financial term."

Now you know more than 90% of the local experts Smiley
