I'm a new trader trying to build a simple trading strategy that I believe should be low risk , easy to research and execute. (also thoughts on other strategies for beginner are more than welcome)
-- Fade the move
The strategy is to note the current trend of the market: forecasted to be up/down for the next week (I have a reliable source for this), scan stocks that have just had a news event AND the stock moved away from the trend (up/down) by more than 5% AND is optionable AND was in a trend for the last 30 days in the same direction as the current market and industry.
In my view this picks up stocks that are going up or down, had a divergent move due to news. I would pick the stocks that had moves against the current market and industry's trend to consider using options in the direction BACK to the TREND. The skill will be in selecting the stocks who's move was do to bogus or weak news and will fall back to it's prior trend in a few days.
I'm looking for news scanner sites or stock scanner sites/ tools that also tie in news events. (wish stockfetcher.com had a news tie in!) I'm using google and yahoo but would like advice on others.
Any tips, tools or suggestions are welcome.
Thanks , Lily
