Stocks with long term momentum characteristics

October 14, 2006

Most people on the street look at momentum traders as low life form. It is considered immoral to buy something just because it is going up. What a waste of MBA if you can make money without reading balance sheets.

But if you do not have those hang ups you will find many ways to trade pure momentum based system with low risk. If you design it properly,you will not miss any major trends. I have been discussing various methods of trading momentum with a select few readers of the blog who had shown an interest in learning about them. So far we have discussed 5 different ways or variations of basic momentum strategy and various tactics and tricks and scans to make them work.

A well designed momentum strategy identifies opportunities in all sorts of market environment. The strategy is extremely simple to use. All these things require no expensive real time data software, no newsletter fees, no understanding macro stuff like interest rates,inflation, deflation, or stuff like PE, cash flow, earnings, or stuff like double top, C&W, wedges and so on. No looking at 1000 charts at night.
