Editorial Policy

TheMoneyBlogs.com Editorial Policy

Our goal at TheMoneyBlogs.com is to provide you with timely and helpful information regarding the stock, futures, and option markets. Our hope is that this information will enable you to better understand the markets and improve your trading skills. We are not in the business of recommending specific trades, trading techniques, or trading "systems."

We want to stress that all the information on the site is offered for educational purposes only. Although our content providers are professional traders, they are NOT offering buy or sell recommendations on any stock, future, or option they discuss in a commentary or update. For example, TheMoneyBlogs.com will never issue a recommendations to "buy company XYZ at 25 1/8, with a stop at 24." We will, at times discuss general price ranges, but only as they relate to certain technical or fundamental market factors we feel are meaningful.

The content providers are simply offering their opinions, in good faith. They may or may not have positions in any of the markets they mention. For example, do not assume they are themselves long or short a particular market, or recommend that you buy or sell a particular market, simply because they express a bullish or bearish bias on that market. When they hold positions in particular markets, they will attempt to avoid expressing any opinions that may unduly impact these markets in any way. They do, however, reserve the right to express a bullish or bearish opinion on a market in which they have a position if they believe their opinion to be valid and truthful.

We want to avoid conflicts of interest at all costs. Because our content providers may have positions in the markets they discuss, and to help guarantee we are providing you reliable information, we have established the following editorial guidelines.

First, because of the susceptibility of thinly traded stocks to manipulation, we will rarely offer commentary or analysis on stocks with average daily volume of less than 500,000 shares and we will make note when we do so. Second, for similar reasons, we will rarely discuss stocks trading under $3 per share.

We also ask our members to assist us by avoiding discussion of such stocks on our message boards.

The accuracy and completeness of the information on this site is not guaranteed and TheMoneyBlogs.com, and all persons associated with TheMoneyBlogs.com, accept no responsibility and shall not be held liable for the outcome of your trades or investments.
