    50% Annual Returns

    The Shorts are much more technical in nature. There are some fundamentals here as well, but probably more like 70% TA. Basically I look for stocks that are highly priced; that has gone parabolic and that is showing signs of the byers stepping away from the punch bowl. I use an advanced chaos...

    50% Annual Returns

    I agree that just reversing the buy criteria doesn't necessarily work. Just because a stock is not a 'buy' doesn't mean it's a short. I am running a short strategy parallel to this long strategy that produce very nice long term results. I will introduce the short portfolio over the next few...
