Description:

The Triple Screen Method of picking stock combines fundamentals, earnings revision fuel and value. From 2003 to 2008--18 quarters--it returned 530% versus the S&P's 30.4% ($35k to $220k)in 1,826 trades averaging 7.1 days. Six fundamental screens reduce stock candidates from ~10,000 to ~500. The earning's revision screen reduces this list to 200, and finally, the value screen reduces it to ~130. From that list, executed every weekend, TSM buys during the week based on technical signals --primarily pullbacks. This book details the TSM stock picking methodology as well as addresses topics important to the short-term trader and longer-term investor: why pullbacks are preferred to breakouts, important cycles in the market (intra-day, 6-month, Presidential, 10-year); the importance of reversal candlesticks (e.g., "hammer" candle), the use of options with the TSM approach, and more.
