Fellow Investors & Traders,
Everyone wants to know the “secret” strategy to help pull more
profits out of the stock market!
Well – there is really no “ONE” secret or “ONE” special strategy that
works 100% of the time in the stock market! If you really want to
make money from the stock market - it takes a combination of several
different strategies of “buys” and “sells” to consistently make
profits add up.
Over the years I have used several different strategies to take some
profits from the stock market! “Buy and Hold”, Penny Stocks, 1 Day
Trades, 2 - 10 Day Trades, all have been successful at one time or
another. As the stock market
conditions change, you have to be flexible enough to change also and
do something “different” to keep in line with the market trend.
As of this writing (January 2008) the stock market trend is mixed
with sentiment on the cautious side and expectations for the first
part of the year to move stock prices higher overall.
The overall economy is expected to
do well this year, companies are reporting good earnings for the most
part - and buying back their own company stock which shows they
typically know more about the company’s future than most investors!
So, with that being said – here is “One Of The Best Stock Market
Strategies” to use for pulling consistent profits out of the
stock market!
I call it
the “2 Weeks Before Earnings” Strategy!
This strategy is a simple approach to buying a position in a company
several weeks (or 2-5 days in some cases) before the company has one of the most important events
of the year. “The Quarterly Earnings”! Which happens 4 times a
year for most companies!
Want to test this strategy before you buy with real money?
Here is what you do to test this out!
Pick any major company stock (Here’s some example stocks - AA, APPL,
BSC, CAL, CROX, CMI, DE, GOOG, GS, IBM, MA, MRK, MSFT, RIMM, SLHD, T,
X).
Find out when the company is expected to report earnings.
Click Here! To find out
when the expected earnings date should be! Enter the Stock Symbol in
the entry field, then press enter or click on GO!
1-2 weeks before the company is expected to report earnings, write
down the stock price at that time (and the date) and decide how many
shares you would have bought (Use 100 shares as a test) or (5 options
if you are looking to buy the stock options)!
The day before the earnings news is expected to be announced - write
down the stock price that you would have liked to take profits at -
enter those figures into my stock price calculation program and see
for yourself that this strategy works!
I use this strategy every month and have been consistently making
profits just about every week!
Whether you are planning to buy “Stock Shares” or “Stock Options”,
this strategy works for both!
Ultimately, it’s “All About Timing”!!! Planning to buy your investments
(or quick trades) takes planning, effort and most of all “buying
at the right time”! This strategy will give you a good advantage
to capitalize on the “price movement” of anticipated upcoming events.
That’s why it’s “All About Timing”! If you get in position
early before the stock price start to move higher, you will have the
best advantage to take good profits whether the earnings news is good
or bad!!
I buy the stock (or options) 1 - 2 weeks before the earnings news is
expected, then 95% of the time I take my profits before the news is
announced to lock in my profits and pocket those gains!
Sometimes I take a small RISK and keep a few shares (or options) if I
think the stock price will continue to move higher after the earnings
(as I did with APPL, ORCL, MSFT, and TXN in the past), most of the
time I don’t.…and you shouldn’t either! That is the quickest way to
lose all of your gains (and more)!
You will have to decide for yourself if you are willing to take that
Risk! In some cases I lost a big chunk of money (and the profits), so
that is why I do not hold the shares or options going into the
earnings news very often!
Play it safe - take your profits when you have them - don’t get
greedy or you will probably lose all of your money for sure!!!
