Publisher's Note
Terranova teaches investors why the buy-low/sell-high model is broken, and instead shows them how to manage their portfolio based on a series of key metrics that determine whether the market is confident or pessimistic about a stock. The book will mix trading floor wisdom ("Never trade on a Monday morning") with specific, actionable tips that will help the reader to build a winning portfolio.

Whether you're a professional investor or just want to trade like one, Buy High, Sell Higher will show you how to pick winners, maximize gains and minimize losses...In this book, you'll learn how a stock's price is just the beginning of the story, and that other indicators like moving averages and volume can help you to spot stocks that have momentum. You'll also learn how to determine the optimal moment to buy a stock, when to sell it, how to protect yourself against sudden reversals in the market, and how to capitalize on moments when other investors are retreating.

What's the best month to buy tech stocks? To sell an energy asset? And what is the one-day of the year that you should never, ever trade on? Answers to these and other questions are just some of the insights that Joe Terranova shares in Buy High, Sell Higher.
