A Very Important Subject
How to spot
when the stock has peaked
Speculative Stocks
I go for the maximum return
The type of speculative stocks
I trade have different rules
They are volatile and risky
I start cheap
Most people buy stocks
because they are going up
I buy them cheap
I don't depend on a bigger fool
to take me out
People get carried away
Speculative stocks go up fast
and peak fast
You have to be nimble and
alert
These stocks are challenging
Short Sellers
Short sellers and market
makers are always looking
for overpriced stocks
When these stocks show up
on their screens, they go
short and knock them downj
When to Sell?
We guess!
It is easy to know when a
stock is cheap
Nobody knows how far the
excitement in an up move
can go
Overpriced Stocks
You can use formulas to tell
when a stock is overpriced,
but overpriced stocks can
still go up
Market Capitalization
Is total market value of the
company reasonable in
terms of sales and earnings?
A $100 million market cap for
a company with $1 million in
revenues is way too much
Look for an excuse to sell
How Fast Up?
If the stock is up ten times or
more in one year, you are
looking for an excuse to sell
An Uptrend is Broken
Don't ask why – the market is
telling you to sell first and
find out why later
Three times uptrend
If the uptrend goes into a
higher uptrend and then
another, sell the spike
Dropping off a plateau
If the stock goes sideways
after going up, and then tips
down, get out
The Big Rule
Sell Too Soon
Look for any excuse to sell a
stock that is way up
No Regrets
Do not worry if you sold too
soon – there are more profits
waiting for you
Study Up
You need more than this basic
summary if you are going to
survive swimming with the
Wall Street Sharks
