How To Find The Perfect Stocks By Using The Oversold Pattern

By Oliver Alvarez


The top stocks and shares to purchase at this time are many. It all depends on your own type of trading. If you're a trader who has no trouble holding stocks for months or even years, then the catalyst should determine what investment you will buy and just how long you will hold it. If you're a day trader or swing trader, then both the catalyst along with the stock chart determines what stock you will purchase.

For traders that move quickly in and out of stocks, the very best stocks to purchase are those that have already established an oversold pattern on the chart. They are stocks which have dropped in price and also have a stochastic reading of below 20. You can't just invest in any oversold stock. With oversold stocks make sure you are not surprised with a debt conversion where shares are issued or bankruptcy filing.

You want to make certain that the oversold chart pattern shows a history of moving off the price level its presently at. Stocks that have a history of rebounding off an area of the chart may very well do it again.

One additional stock tip is for you to go to the NASDAQ short interest site and find out the short interest in the stock. Any stock with a short interest greater than 3 days to cover is a short squeeze prospect. Short squeeze stocks are the ones that have a high short interest. A short seller must always buy the stock back to close out the short position. In the event the short interest gets too much in a stock, short sellers get nervous. If many of the short sellers sell out of the stock all at once, it can cause a stock to sky rocket.

If you're a guy who holds stocks for a long period of time, then you will want to focus your time on pinpointing the catalyst. A catalyst is that which may cause the stock to move higher either from short covering or legitimate buy side demand moving into the stock. You could be the best stock chart reader in the world however, if you don't learn how to determine the catalyst, you are likely to lose money trading.

A good way to get better at doing catalyst studies is to visit Finviz or any web site that shows the best performing stocks for that day. Select the stocks with the biggest gainers for that day and glance at the news. You will quickly determine what are great catalysts which will move a stock up.

One of the better free resources for screening stocks is Finviz. It has a terrific stock screener. You may show stocks on a technical level which means things which have an effect on the chart. You may also filter stocks on financial data which means information and facts released in financial reports.

In the video clip below, you will see me use Finviz to do a stock screen that one of the top traders on Wall Street taught me. You can pause the video as you enter the settings into Finviz yourself.

I'm hoping the video below lets you make a great deal of money trading stocks. I really like receiving positive feedback from folks who are happy because they took something from this video to make a winning trade. If you have questions don't think twice about emailing me and I'll try to help you out.
