INVESTING SUCCESS

Spring Stock Guide // 2017 Q2

We’re excited to share some new changes to the MarketSmith Stock Guide. We surveyed our customers and asked what they found useful and what they’d like to see in future issues. Overwhelmingly, customers asked how other MarketSmith users discover new stock ideas. They wanted more screens, previews of new features, and ongoing tips and information to improve their investing research. We decided to focus this edition completely on customer success stories and asked one of our favorite MarketSmith users to help tell them. Amy Smith, IBD Market Commentator and author of How to Make Money in Stocks Success Stories, talked with three MarketSmith users about their recent stock successes and the screening criteria they use to surface winning stocks. Amy will be a permanent addition to our Stock Guide content team and will be sharing more success stories from MarketSmith users. We hope you learn from their stories so you can find greater investing success. As always, if you have any questions or comments about your investing research or any MarketSmith features, please call one of our product coaches at (800) 831-2525 or email us at [email protected]. We’re here to help you make more money in the market. Best Returns, The MarketSmith Team

Marketsmith.com // 2017 Q2 l Success Stories

Abe Christensen is one of the IBD Meetup Leaders from Sausalito, California and has used MarketSmith since it launched in September 2010. Abe has been an avid investor for many years, using IBD and Daily Graphs prior to MarketSmith.

Abe has always looked for new, reliable data points to help him find solid growth stocks. After trying a variety of screening criteria, Abe’s success finding market winners really picked up when he added these parameters:

Always looking to improve his results, Abe was inspired to buy Apple’s powerful breakout in 2004. With a Composite Rating at a paltry 57, Abe created a screen that would capture a stock that didn’t necessarily have a high Composite Rating but still had great potential.

After several screening iterations, Abe developed the 29/29 screen. He uses 29% expected EPS growth for the next quarter and 29% expected growth for the next year. To refine the list a bit, Abe also added 20% increase in revenues for the most recent quarter.

In June, 2016, Mobileye had been struggling for several quarters and

Customer Success Story: ABE CHRISTENSEN

Apple’s Low Composite Rating Inspired This Investor’s Winning Screen

• Composite Rating of 99

• Using MarketSmith’s Pattern Recognition, stocks near a pivot in a first or second stage base

• Relative strength line in new high ground ahead of the price

the Composite Rating was lackluster. But it had earnings projections above 29% for the 2nd quarter and for the full year. This earned Mobileye a spot on Abe’s watchlist and when it began to rally up off its lows in March/April, 2016, Abe began looking for a proper buy point.

Following a first stage eight-week double bottom base, Mobileye shot up through its 50 DMA on June 17. Volume was 52% greater than average and the RS line tilted up sharply around the 1 o’clock position. Abe bought his full position that day and the next.

Of course, buying is just half the battle. Knowing when to sell a stock and lock in profits is important for successful investing. Abe used a sell rule found in How to Make Money in Stocks, by William O’Neil, “the first short term correction”. Using MarketSmith Pattern Recognition to support his decision-making, Abe sold Mobileye on July 28 when it achieved a 20% gain.

_________________________________________________________________________________ “As IBD Founder William O’Neil often said,

Look for stocks with current and forward guidance of 29%+

Super stocks usually have a high Composite Rati ng, but there are excepti ons. Looking for stocks with strong quarterly earnings as well as expected growth for the coming year, can alert investors to stocks that they might not have on their radar otherwise.

Lee Tanner became interested in stock investing in 1985. His father had been a big fan of IBD Founder William O’Neil and Lee soon became an IBD and Daily Graphs subscriber. Lee heads up the Petaluma, California IBD Meetup group.

Lee began using MarketSmith when it launched in September 2010. It was through the MarketSmith forum that Lee met Abe Christensen from the Saulsalito IBD Meetup and the two friends have been exchanging investing tips ever since. Since the two Meetup groups are within 30 miles of each other, Abe is also a regular contributor to Lee’s group.

In fact, Lee has been using Abe’s 29/29 stock screen on a regular basis to find high growth stocks. It was at the end of March 2016 that Lee first noticed Weibo on the 29/29 screen.

The stock was forming a cup-shaped base. It was a bit deep at 41%, but this was due to a market correction. Lee bought the stock early based on quiet trading in the low of the handle April 1. He based the buy rule from The Successful Investor by William O’Neil, which states that “professional money managers get in even earlier around the bottom pullback point of the handle when volume has subsided substantially.”

Weibo’s fundamental data was very strong, and the RS line had been moving into new high ground. In addition, there were two weekly spikes in volume showing professional buying the weeks of March 4 and March 11. Lee had been anxious to own this stock and made note of the quarterly triple-digit earnings and high double digit sales numbers.

Curious About Weibo, This Investor Knew to Wait for the Proper Base

Customer Success Story: LEE TANNER

11

Weibo earned a 215% gain from the low of the handle April 1 until it began to pull back. It then began a new double bottom base from November 2016 – January 2017.

Besides the 29/29 screen, Lee runs an accelerating screen, looking for three quarters of both accelerating EPS and sales growth. To further refine the stocks, Lee adds another criteria, ATM (after tax margin), accelerating for 3 quarters. That cuts the results to about 1/3 of the above screen.

Find stocks experiencing growth in revenue and earnings

Historically, some of the market’s leading stocks will show not only a strong EPS growth rate, but an accelerati on in both earnings and sales. In Bill O’Neil’s book, How to Make Money in Stocks, he writes “take parti cular note if the growth of both sales and earnings has accelerated for the last three quarters.”

An active investor, Mike Zimmerman leads the IBD Meetup in St. Louis Missouri and began using MarketSmith in September 2010. Mike likes using MarketSmith’s Pattern Recognition as it makes it easy to identify big breakouts or secondary buy points.

As with Lee Tanner, Weibo also surfaced for Mike when he ran some of MarketSmith’s preset screens. Weibo’s technical and fundamental action caught Mike’s attention as it was forming a cup-shaped base in March 2016. Mike first noticed Weibo on a weekly chart in early March because volume on both the daily and weekly charts moved sharply higher due to a stellar earnings report. Professional buyers were beginning to take positions in the stock.

Mike made note of the 5 quarters of triple-digit earnings prior to the breakout in April. Weibo also had a dominant position in its industry group (Internet-Content) with a “Twitter-like” platform in China. Unlike Twitter, Weibo’s model was generating larger user growth as small and medium-sized businesses continued to use Weibo to promote their products.

This Investor Finds Stocks That Hit on Multiple Screens


Customer Success Story: MIKE ZIMMERMAN

17

“I’m always looking for strength, and I tweak the parameters slightly on a daily basis with some of the screens based on how the market is acting.” – Mike Zimmerman


Unfortunately, Mike learned an important lesson when he forgot to set an alert and missed the actual breakout. It was still in the buy range so he bought it the next day and held the position until it broke the 10-week moving average in late October 2016. He sold half his position at that point, and waited to see if Weibo would hold the 40-week line.

Marketsmith.com // 2017 Q2 l MarketSmith Features

MarketSmith has expanded its alerts capability with our newest feature called Smart Alerts. Customers can add up to 200 individual stocks to the Smart Alert lists to help them monitor daily acti on.

Our fi rst Smart Alert is Pullback to 10-week and is designed to identi fy the fi rst or second pullback to the 10-week line. This signal helps investors identi fy a good point they might add to their positi ons when the market is in a solid uptrend.

The second Smart Alert is the 50-Day Break on Volume and is more defensive in nature. It is designed to detect a break of the 50-day moving average. The alert will trigger if a stock falls 5% below the 50-day and the volume is 50% or more above average. The 50-day Break alert only triggers for stocks that have broken out of a proper base and had been in an uptrend prior to the break.

The MarketSmith team added this new alert to help customers recognize when a stock may be breaking down and sending a sell signal.

Another ti mely MarketSmith feature is the Earnings Gap Up and Gap Down email. Earnings have become a quarter-by-quarter game, so it’s vital to stay on top of your stocks that could gap up or down on their earnings reports.

While the list came out in August 2016, subscribers can now get these noti fi cati ons via email, desktop alerts and mobile app noti fi cati ons. The reports are also available through the Stock Ideas butt on on the desktop platf orm and the Reports secti on in the List Manager.
