Stage Chart Investing is a simple strategy to determine the 4 Stages of an investment, and only be invested (Long or Bullish) in the Stage 2 Bull (upward tilt). Stage 2 is where your money is made.

Stage 1 is the sideways Base (indecision), Stage 3 is a Topping pattern, and Stage 4 is downward tilt (Short or Bear). Businesses evolve through 4 distinct stages, from inception to maturity. This methodology helps to not waste time in the 3 Stages that are not in upward tilt (Bull). Above the Green Line follows the Stage Chart Analysis of Stan Weinstein and recommends that all should read his book (At least Chapter 2) Secrets For Profiting in Bull and Bear Markets for timeless Technical Analysis (digital copy only $1.99 at Amazon).
