"This book describes in detail a method of market analysis and timing that can be tracked manually or with a minimal amount of computer power, a method by which investors and traders alike may determine when a stock or futures market is likely to change direction, when to buy, when to sell, how to manage risk, and how to maximize reward."
­­From the Preface

Jake Bernstein has dedicated the past three decades of his extensive career to studying markets, developing trading systems, trading, writing, and teaching traders throughout the world. In those 30+ years of vast experience, no single trading approach has impressed Bernstein as much as the Momentum Stock Selection (MSS) method.

Momentum Stock Selection provides a comprehensive description of this new advance in the art and science of precision market timing. It reveals how you can use momentum as part of a larger methodology to recognize the existence of bullish and/or bearish patterns, determine buy and sell signals, and effectively manage risk and profit once a trade has been initiated based on MSS signals.

Outlining a fluid, dynamic trading method that gauges overall market conditions and adjusts itself accordingly, this concise-yet-comprehensive book describes:

• Easy-to-understand momentum methods for tracking price trends and for confidently predicting market tops and bottoms as well as breakouts
• Techniques for evaluating market momentum in all time frames
• Objective methods for determining when a stock or market is in a strong up or down trend
• Specific techniques for using MSS signals in futures, stocks, and stock options
• Types and uses of software for simplifying the calculation and charting of momentum
• Stop loss techniques that control risk as they prevent you from being stopped out of profitable moves too soon
• Fifteen important pointers for effectively using MSS timing and stops
• Case studies and examples of winning MSS applications­­as well as missteps to avoid

Jake Bernstein shares his extensive knowledge of markets and technical timing tools in his momentum stock selection methods. Whether you are a day-, short-, medium-, or long-term trader, let Momentum Stock Selection show you how to successfully combine market momentum with innovative risk management techniques to dramatically increase your day-in, day-out trading opportunities.
