Throughout the book, he outlines a comprehensive top-down approach to capturing profits that entails making more-informed trading decisions and pinpointing the best possible opportunities.

Today’s rapid-fire technology offers you a more equal playing field when determining pricing, accessing various markets, and identifying platform transparency. “Mastering the Stock Market” gives traders an extra advantage by outlining the most relevant tools for making investment decisions that are characterized by lower risk and ultimately prove to be more profitable. Some of the tools Person touches upon include:

• Sector and seasonal trend analysis
• Contrarian and momentum indicators
• Price patterns
• Volume studies (OBV)
• Breadth indicators (Advance/Decline)
• Moving averages
• Support and resistance

Using the information outlined here, you’ll discover the answers to the important questions all successful traders must ask, such as: what is the value of a certain stock, commodity, or ETF?

Awareness of seasonal trends in both the economy and stock market can put you in a better position to profit from sectors and stocks that are likely to outperform the overall market. And technical tools can then be used to confirm emerging trends, among other things. Person shows you how using a combination of both approaches can give you an edge in your trading endeavors. In addition to this, “Mastering the Stock Market” shows you how to use the author’s own indicators, Person Pivots, to identify support/resistance areas and pinpoint optimal entry and exit points.

There are still opportunities to make money in today’s markets. The key is choosing the right sectors and the right stocks, at the right time. “Mastering the Stock Market” reveals how you can effectively implement this proven approach and achieve your trading goals.
