Stage Analysis.

Every rally (from its start to end) consist of four stock market stages. These stages tell you if you should be buying, selling or stay in cash.

Stage1. BASE ( DISBELIEF )
Stock stops falling, finds support, goes in range.
Smart money begins small purchases

Stage 2. ADVANCE ( CONFIDENCE )
Prices move up. Sometimes with big uphrusts.
Smart money gets fully invested, while public becomes aware.
In Stage 2, stocks will move up, then develop a base, move up again.
We have multiple bases in a stage 2 run up.
Buy stocks starting a STAGE 2 move.
Due to Multiple Bases, there are many entry opportunities.

Stage 3. TOP ( EUPHORIA )
Prices start flying all over. There is a sense that this time ‘it is different’ –prices will go up forever.
Smart money is selling, while public finally enters the market.

Stage 4. DECLINE ( FEAR )
After making a top, prices start falling.
Public thinks it is a correction, waits.
Finally, prices fall big time, public is filled with fear. They sell when the market is near its final low.
