Universe List Basics

In this video you will learn all about Universe Lists!
PURPOSE: A Universe List filters the market down to the top 2-3% of stocks that fit a strict criteria.

WHY DO IT: Saves time and increases odds of success (this is true no matter what your strategy is)

OTHER BENEFITS:

  • Know how the market is treating your system.
  • Find pockets of strength w/in your system.

HOW TO BUILD IT:

  1. Know what you’re screening for and why. Have a method! Here’s mine:
    1. E = extraordinary earnings, sales, and/or projections
    1. A = aiming for high probability, high reward, low risk trades
    1. G = game changers and growth (includes growing fund ownership)
    1. L = leadership in the market, among peers, and in leading groups
    1. E = environment, trade with the market, not against it
  2. Build screens that fit your method.
  3. Add to and prune your Universe regularly. I do this weekly

BONUS: Watch the expansion/contraction of the list, as well as which groups are coming on or falling off.
