Co-Wise: How do you pick a stock?
Views 1.1M Contents 283

NEEDLE IN A HAYSTACK....

When I first started trading I would just throw darts at The Wall Street Journal and buy what got hit..... JKJKJK....

I have developed, though still fine tuning, my own "research and destroy" style of hunting for stocks in the markets.
I will first create watchlists based on initial cost and date, less than a dollar, one dollar to three dollars, three dollars to five dollars, five dollars to ten dollars and ten dollars to twenty dollars, anything over twenty dollars is a specific meticulously researched endeavor. I usually do this weekly and any stocks I still want are easily saved or moved to a different watchlist and usually I start hunting Saturday night.

I will then make note of short volume vs share float vs volume traded. I also never delete any of the alerts I have set on each stock, ever, yes it can be a nuisance but that's how I have caught a few runners. So now I have my organized "target stocks", grouped in a way that works for me. Also I am not trying to monitor the entire market with or relying on AI. I will then start on researching the company, what they do, what they have done, what they have in the pipeline. Check out if they are actually profitable and read through news articles, and not just stock articles, associated magazines, books, and then if they are game I will browse the filings for at minimum the last quarter, I don't read every single page either, so now I have sorted out what I want.
I will then start looking at what the MOOMOO community is looking at and same sub cataloging these separately but the same way. Then once pre market opens Monday I will set up the pre/post market screener by dollar value and watch what from my lists start to match up with the screener by setting up % change and only taking ones that have gained around but not less than 5%, taking ones with obvious good news or filings and then cross reference them back to my notes I made and my research done. Removing non performing ones to the weekly trash watchlist with their alerts still attached. This is how I have trained myself and my way works for me.
Maybe it won't work for others but maybe others see a way to fine tune or tweak it for their liking.
