This Cats Secrets to Investing

Im not sure i can even fit all the metrics that i use without making it too boring but ill try. First is scanning the news for any clues of where the market is leaning towards,like oil prices, government program announcements, strength of the dollar, or mergers and acquisitions. After that I look up analyst upgrades to buy and strong buy and initiated coverage. I focus on small to midcaps under 30.00 since they will have the biggest increases percentage wise. Last is to look up insider buying, but you only want insider stocks that have good average volume and stay away from the financial companies(banks and trust). After all this, the list made will be from 10-20 stocks. Separating them by the size of their float, option contracts (length,amount available, amount purchased),and 20ma and 50ma. Checking news stories for them the last 30-90 days plus SEC filings and when ER was or if its coming up. To further break them down also figure how close they have been to their average volume the last 3 months. Doing all this should give you a top 5 or top 3 to choose from for the following days investments. But the most success i have had profiting off of stocks has been from watching stocks move in premarket and during market hours and jumping into them before they take off. On the downside that has also been how i have had the highest percentage losses, that and holding thru ER. So the safest and most profitable overall will always be the stocks that have been researched extensively and held the longest. That is the only way to succeed in the market. Daytrading and jumping from stock to stock should only be used for entertainment purposes because they have a 99% breakeven or loss outcome. My profits come from the tried and true investor method. The rest is just for a daily challenge with a lot of fun and excitement added in. Helps keep my mind sharp. Now you know all my secrets to investing so i wont be needed anymore.
