My second start with stock trading. I realized that pick stocks automatically is just plain stupid. That programming i have done for a long time is of use at all. I realized that swing trading is what I am really interested in. Just follow the ups and downs of a specific stocks price. Buy when the price is down and sell when the price is high. How hard can it be? A lot of questions arise of course. First of all: what companies stocks should I choose?
I experimented with created a screener for picking companies. I chose 20 of them and started to follow them, trying to hit the bottom and the top for the price roller coaster. This is my first attempt to pick the stock at the wright moment to maximize the profit.
