Michael\u2019s Trendsetter Strategy<\/strong> is a 3-step analysis of the markets, the stocks in those markets, and the way those stocks are viewed by investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fundamental goal of the Trendsetter Strategy<\/strong> is to have a simple, stable system to find great stocks and consistently build steady returns without having to rebuild the system every time the markets shifts, or something happens to the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only shares that pass all 3 of these filters are considered as candidates for the Proffe\u2019s Fund<\/strong>, and each portfolio stock is continually monitored to make sure that it continues to pass all 3 filters. Once it falls off trend, it is replaced by a stock that is on trend. This is what allows the portfolio to continue to grow and achieve its market-beating gains with relative safety and ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is what makes the Trendsetter Strategy<\/strong> completely unique in the markets today, and its 25-year record of outsized performance proves how effective it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Fundamental Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

He screens stocks for their fundamental, long-term viability. A company that has built a strong foundation for growth is likely to continue its growth, come what may.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some key indicators he looks at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Turnover<\/strong> \u2013 a positive development is a plus<\/li>
  • EBITDA, or Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization<\/strong> \u2013 a strong record of growth is key<\/li>
  • Stock Yield<\/strong> \u2013 a stable, growing and consistent dividend is favored<\/li>
  • Positive Working Capital<\/strong> \u2013 whether a company has enough cash on hand to manage its debt obligations; the more the better.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    2. Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Here, Michael digs into how these stocks look from a technical perspective. Stocks may be fundamentally sound but are not technically attractive. Both criteria have to be met for the Trendsetter Strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Michael drills down into specific indicators:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • MACD, or Moving Average Convergence\/Divergence<\/strong> \u2013 a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. Positive momentum is key<\/li>
    • MOM<\/strong> \u2013 a momentum indicator that measures the velocity of price change instead of looking only at the price levels. A reading above 0 is crucial.<\/li>
    • RSI, or Relative Strength Index<\/strong> \u2013 compares the magnitude of recent gains and losses over a given time period to measure speed and change of price movements of a stock. It\u2019s used to identify overbought or oversold conditions in a stock.<\/li>
    • Williams %R<\/strong> \u2013 the current closing price of a stock in relation to the high and low of the past x number of days.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      3. Behavioral Finance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      This looks at the behavioral and psychological aspects of the markets in relation to the economics and finance aspects of the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
