Ultimate in Swing Trading Possibilities

Yes, we truly believe that for many the NSP Method in its entirety can potentially offer "Unlimited Swing Trading Possibilities" and the Best of All Worlds in short-term stock trading. Keep in mind that it has produced outstanding performances in testing, and also real-time, while very simply buying at the beginning of the week and selling at the beginning of the following week. This has been powerfully displayed thru the results of the NSP 100 Index, NSP 20 and NSP 10. What could be an easier approach than that?

Basically, identifying quality stocks ready to rise is a key factor in any short-term stock trading successes. Proper entry and exit techniques are of course paramount. Establishing that "edge" in stock selection though is crucial to have on your side. Let's now examine some of the ways that can be done with the NSP Method. First, to recap some of the techniques we will be continually tracking going forward into the future:

1.  NSP Eligible Stocks (up to 200)

For starters, the NSP will generate a list of up to a whopping 200 stocks each week that meet its qualifications as a top prospect to consider for trading purposes. Yes, you read that number right. 200! Each stock will then be assigned a NSP Power Factor number above 50--absolute minimum to be eligible (the higher the better).  

2.  NSP 100 Index

The top 100 in the list of NSP Eligible Stocks will go on to become the NSP 100 Index. In addition, the performance of the top 20 (NSP Top 20) and top 10 (NSP Top 10) out of this Index will be tracked as well. These stocks will be calculated as being purchased at Monday's opening price and sold at the following Monday's open.

3.  NSP Value Plus

In addition, each of the up to 200 NSP-eligible stocks will be assigned a specific buy price should prices decline to that level on Monday (or the first trading day of the week). For any stock which does not then proceed to meet that specific price on Monday would be eliminated from consideration for that week. These stocks would also be considered sold at the open on the following Monday.

Other Possibilities with the NSP

Besides the very uncomplicated approaches which have been discussed to this point, might we only be scratching the surface as to the possibilities with this group of stocks? The initial key really is putting an edge on your side...and managing  the right stock at the right time. Easier said than done of course!

What we are really attempting to provide here each week are a number of stocks which may have the potential to produce impressive returns over about 4-5 days or so. The future is never guaranteed of course but we'll confidently let the numbers speak for themselves.

Before searching for other entry and exit possibilities with the NSP stocks, it is important to point out how successful the NSP stocks have been while only utilizing rather simplistic entry and exit techniques. Certainly not all of the techniques emphasized here are necessarily cut in stone however. An ambitious and/or skilled trader could even potentially utilize some of these very stocks and come up with a unique approach. A BIG word of warning though--more complicated is not necessarily always better though either. There are so many variables to consider. 

Actual entry strategies could be altered in so many different ways as an example. For instance, one could enter either above or only below the system's specified price...searching for even a better buy? Maybe only low price, high price, and/or high volume stocks would even be considered for purchase? Of course all of that would come down to one's own unique situation and their personal comfort level. An investment adviser could be consulted for those purposes when necessary. 

As for exit strategies, numerous tweaks would also be possible. Stop losses and/or profit targets could be employed in any number of fashions, or stocks could be held for longer periods of time than the standard 4-5 days.

That is exactly what could be described as just so exciting about this method. Using only the most basic of entry and exit strategies it has consistently and powerfully outperformed the averages since its inception in 2001. Keep in mind that the markets have had their share of bearishness since the turn of the century as well.

Now of course holding stocks for longer periods of time can certainly have its share of advantages. For more information on how the NSP stocks have performed with longer holding periods please visit the page NSP Longer Holding Periods.
