Stock Picking - Cheatsheet

Here's a short cheatsheet on how I pick stocks:

  • Volume per day:
    • For options, 5 million shares or more
    • For stocks, 1 million shares or more
  • Technical Signal
    • Macd: Bull or bear
    • Mfi: Bull or bear
    • Or something else. Just pick a tech sig or two. Don't overthink it.
  • Price trend:
    • Up: High highs and higher lows
    • Down: Lower lows and lower highs
    • Sideways: Bouncing between support and resistance at the same levels
  • Trade in the direction of the price trend and one of the signals, using a strategy that matches the trend.
 That's it. Short and sweet.

Here's where you can read the full essay.
