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.

Beginning Indicators
Trading involves technical analysis, reading the charts and what each candlestick means and the shapes and indicators involved.
So here I just wanted to provide some of the indicators that can help initial readings and possibly go into more complex indicators:
RSI (Relative Strength Index): Relative Strength Index measures whether a stock is being overbought or oversold. Lower RSI indicates people have sold more and that you could be looking for an increase in buying. Two points to watch are when RSI is close to 70, meaning it’s moving towards overbought, and 30, meaning it’s oversold.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence): MACD helps show the price movement, moving average on a shorter period versus a longer The short EMA will always meet the long EMA but it helps determine possible uptrends or downtrends when the blue line crosses the red line.
Crossing downward is bearish and upward is the opposite. MACD can contain gold and death crosses. Gold Cross has the blue line shoot up through the red line, creating a cross and a bullish indicator. Death Cross has the blue line drop through the red line, a bearish signal.
MFI (Money Flow Index): Money Flow Index is similar to RSI in that it can also help determine overbought or oversold areas with usual indicators at 80 and 20, similar indications to RSI.
Using MFI with RSI can help spot dive...

1. Be Greedy When Others are Fearful
I believe most of the investors heard this famous quote from Warren Buffett before, he said: “Be fearful when others are greedy and Be greedy when others are fearful.” But, how many of us would actually able to execute this? What most of us practice is “Be fearful when others are fearful and be greedy when others are greedy.” And the result is, we are nothing compared to Warren Buffett, which mean his success in stock investing had proven his quote. ...
