What is the goal of Peak Profit Alert (PPA)?

Trends develop across multiple time frames. They can last for a few hours to a couple of months and even years. Most traders apply trend following strategies to trade only from a short-term perspective.

But, at PPA we will identify not only short-term trends but medium and long-term trends as well. We will take advantage of trends developing across timeframes.

We will use time tested and proven strategies of technical analysis. We will use proprietary tools developed in house and not available anywhere else in the world to identify these trades.

The PPA service will include stock recommendations based on our proprietary systems. We will use Market Barometer to identify short and medium-term trading opportunities. And SCOREFAST^TM system to identify long term trends in stocks which are on the cusp of a major reversal.

We will send a detailed report after market hours so our subscribers can get ample time to read the report before the next working day. Please note we do not recommend intraday trades.

We do not bind ourselves with a fixed number of stocks to recommend during the year. Whenever we see an opportunity we will share it with our subscribers without fail. The actual number of recommendations will vary depending on market conditions. But based on our study we believe that it can be a total of 60 to 100 recommendations across timeframes.

Will stocks with low liquidity be recommended?

All the listed stocks will be part of the core trading universe under Peak Profit Alert. However, to ensure that the stock has enough depth and liquidity over a long span of time we would recommend only those stocks whose average turnover for last 120 days is more than Rs 2 crore.

How long should one hold on to a stock?

Holding period for short and medium-term trades could be in the range one week to three weeks. Average holding period for long term trades could be in the range of three to six months. However, it can be more or less depending on the market situation and stocks trend.

The above is purely indicative and the subscribers are recommended to obtain advice from their financial planners or investment advisers.
