I have 22 consecutive profitable trades of 15% or better. How is this possible? Every day there are hundreds of stocks setting new highs, no matter what happens in the overall market. Many of these stocks are still at very reasonable valuations. Afraid of buying stocks at their highs? Think of it this way: a new high is really a future floor for companies with solid financial underpinnings. Quantitative momentum modeling makes it easy to identify stocks that can continue this upward momentum trend. Why does this happen? It's really very simple..ask me about what investors and cows have in common. I am $$$ MR. MARKET $$$. I AM HUGE!!! Bring me your finest meats and cheeses. You can join in on the fun.

Note...Not all of these are really worth considering; e.g. VANS on the buyout...However, I always check them out for possible new ideas. Beware that many that make the MoMo List are volatile and may carry extra risk. IMO this list is more valuable for most investors in an UP market...Best, IIC
"Trade What Is Happening...Not What You Think Is Gonna Happen"
In the distant past I did. I used to straddle out of the money's (Puts & Calls on the same stock)...I'd say I about broke even from the mid '80's to early '90's.
I would like to do so again...but ONLY if I could watch full-time which I can't due to having a F/T job.
