Hey mooers ![]()

![]()
, last week I shared trends&moving averages with you ![]()
![]()
![]()
, ![]()
click here to review it![]()
, and today, let's see how to pick the right stocks at the right time ![]()
![]()
![]()
.
Firstly, smart stock-pickers have three big things in common:![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
They trade what they know, and know what they don't know.
![]()
They stay aware of the daily news, trends, and events that drive the economy and every company in it.
![]()
They use those goals and knowledge to inform the decisions they made to buy or sell stocks.
To trade what you know![]()
Once you get a sense of the companies and industries that may present trading opportunities, it's time to build your own "control panel" of stocks.
With moomoo, you can start by adding company names into the Watchlist, then you can pull up quotes, set alerts, and check the calendar for any company actions such as earnings. Under the News tab, you can scan the daily headlines and hot spots. And under the Explore tab, there's a whole host of functions to help you narrow your search.![]()
![]()
![]()
To get a sense of momentum and other technical indicators![]()
Getting educated on a stock's fundamentals, such as revenue, earnings or losses per share, price-to-earnings ratios, and other metrics, is just one step in formulating a stock trading strategy. Once you identify a potential market or stock to trade, you'll need more information. Historical stock performance is an important thing to check. How has this stock performed over the last week, last month, and last year? For example, is the stock near its 52-week high or 52-week low? Is the stock's price diverging from its industry peers or the broader market?![]()
![]()
![]()
Of course, past performance is not an indicator of future results, but brushing up on your history can't hurt.![]()
![]()
![]()
Momentum indicators, for example, are among the technical tools that incorporate trading volume and other factors to measure how quickly a stock price has been moving up or down and the likelihood it may continue going that direction. When markets are in the process of changing direction, momentum readings often "diverge," flattening out or turning the opposite way (check out my column of MACD divergence!![]()
![]()
![]()
).
To keep your eyes open![]()
It's vital to keep up with market news and opinions. Reading the financial news and keeping up with industry blogs by writers whose views interest you is a form of passive research. The underlying argument can be a common-sense observation. For example, you might note that the emerging markets nations are producing new middle classes made up of people who demand a greater variety of consumer goods. As a result, there will be a surge in demand for certain products and commodities.![]()
![]()
![]()
Taking the argument a step further, the investor can deduce that with an increase in the demand for a product, some producers of that product will prosper. This type of basic analysis forms the "story" behind the investment, which justifies purchasing a stock.![]()

@AxThePro Balanced portfolio
1 million is a huge sum to begin with, it is very important to have growth for this portfolio. At the same time, we also must make sure it is safe from significant losses. I’ll allocate my portfolio with 4-3-2-1 strategy. I am an agreesive investors, I do not believe in bonds, so I will allocate 100% in equity portfolio.

@Dadacai My Portfolio If I Had A S$1 Million Windfall
If I had a $1 million windfall, I would put 90% of it in an S&P ETF like $Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO.US)$ , $SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY.US)$ and $iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV.US)$ , and 5% in Treasury bills. The remaining 5% will be reserved for stocks that I think have the potential to become the next $Amazon (AMZN.US)$ , $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ , $Sea (SE.US)$ , $Apple (AAPL.US)$ and $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$ .

@David W Clark How would I invest $1,000,000
I'd put it in an account that at least pays as much interest as possible while researching for stocks, bonds, ETFs and other such ways to invest and grow. I may do this with a 45/45/10 split, Dividend Stocks/ Value Stocks / Cash.

@Panda2102 Barbell strategy to build a portfolio with a $1m windfall
One portfolio (85-90%) holds extremely safe investments, while the other aggressive portfolio (10-15%) holds highly speculative or leveraged investments. Depending if you are in the Wealth Accumulation stage or Wealth Preservation stage of your life, you can tweak the two portfolio accordingly.

@atelophobia Portfolio building
Building a portfolio is aka finding the best equilibrium and striking a balance of allocation across the different classes. There is no right or wrong answer to how should one build a portfolio for the fact that Trading/Investment is an Art not a Sciene as such there is no scientific way to judge an artpiece as beauty lies in the eyes of beholder!

@Mama Cass $1M Playmoney!
If lucky enough to find or be given $1M to invest I'm afraid that at my age (55) I wouldn't go crazy with aggressive return seeking investments. Different age groups have different portfolio allocations. I'm a caviar kind of gal so I'm going to get a pro to take my million and make it pay off without loss.

@nickelrust Buy. Hold. Sell. Repeat.
Me as a lower risk taker would opt for a safer option, to put the money into a basket of bluechip stocks and let it grow over a period of 3 to 5 years. With the current market still at its low, and globally economies are opening up and striving to stabilise and enter the real new normal.

@Sufy87 It comes down to portfolio allocation and what you know best.
Personally, I would allocate 60% stocks, 20% into ETFs, 15% options, 5% cash. Stocks are basically what builds wealth. ETFs are basically to get exposure to segments of the economy. Options are just to hedge against some of my positions. Cash is always as "bullets" when opportunity arise.

@102252718 What is your purpose to invest?
Everyone invest for a different reason. For me, I invest to grow my wealth pot for retirement and my child's education.
70-80% GROWTH STOCKS $TSLA $PLTR.
10% ETF $ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK.US)$ $ARKF.
10% Crypto $ETH. $BTC.

My first encounter with $Futu Holdings Ltd (FUTU.US)$ moomoo was when I chanced upon the advertisement on the MRT station where I was greeted by the cute sounding name which reminded me of a nursery rhyme that I used to sing to when I was a kid and the adorable cow mascot that seemed to offer hope and optimism in the bull market. The catchy name and fascinating mascot were so intriguing that it enticed me to discover more about moomoo. To add on to its appeal, the tempting free $Apple (AAPL.US)$ share proved too irresistible to the point that it initiated my investing beginning on this brand new trading platform. I must say that Moomoo is a very user friendly platform that offers an easy-to-follow user guide with all the various features to allow me to embark on my investing journey without any difficulty. Without a doubt, moomoo is an innovative and engaging platform where it leads me to self discover all about investing once again with the quizzes, games, events and other activities which I could actively participate in. The highly vibrant moomoo community here fosters a free flow and exchange of investing perspectives, ideas and opinions with one another to enrich our investing experience, further bonding all mooers of diverse background as one big family. Investing is now no longer a solitary nor isolating experience but one where it feels like a community that renders investing to be much more meaningful. There is no one distinct moomoo moment for me as moomoo has already deeply integrated into my everyday life of investing and sharing of ideas with fellow mooers. It has become the first app that I wake up to and the last one I fall asleep to. Last but not least, I would like to take this opportunity, together with the moomoo Trinity, to wish FUTU a Happy 9th Birthday and looking forward to many more prosperous years with moomoo! ![]()
