Watch List Strategy

The purpose of this site, from the very beginning, has been to help the investor/trader toward his/her goals.  After 40 plus years in and around the markets, I can, with confidence, say that you must learn how to make decisions for yourself.  Others such as the PrudentTrader can offer you ideas, the decision however is yours alone.

Remember, in this authors humble opinion trading the markets is about managing money and assessing risk, it is not about being right or wrong at any given time.  The concern about being right or wrong is the failing of many a trader.

That being said most of you will trade either equities or their derivatives, Exchange Traded or Mutual Funds, or futures. Options are derivatives. Of course you will not bet on a derivative with out first liking the underlying security.  Our watch list stocks are compiled as best we can according to Beat the Market: Invest in Stocks by Knowing When to Buy and When to Sell by Charles D. Kirkpatrick

Of course it is one thing to understand the “how to” of gathering the information and putting the list together and quite another knowing when to move on said security or derivative.  In that vain the PrudentTrader provides various trading systems from very short-term to longer term strategies to help you making such a decision.  For example (data not current):
