Stock trading, the stock market, and what some stock traders say/do:
A motto of short term traders in general and day traders in particular is to follow the market, and to buy the strong stocks if the market is rising, and to sell short weak stocks if market is declining.
Books and stock trading mentors like to the repeat the above, thousands of times. There is however a problem in that statement: it is incomplete. How would one know if the stock market is rising before it happens, and how would one find the strongest stocks? We will discuss these items further.
Let's us however discuss the stock stocks and weak stocks part. On April 26, 2010, there was a stock market selloffs. It is our believe that if some stocks held up when the overall market was rising, then maybe focusing on trading these stocks on the long side when the market is rising might help those in search of a trading edge.
Below is a list of stocks that went up during the selloff. Is it a sign of strength? We shall see what these stocks will do when the market rises the next time.
The last two numbers in list below are the market Cap and the percent Change (%). There are a lot of low micro caps in the list. So a first problem might be liquidity among other risks.
