About StockTips.com

We are everywhere

Welcome to StockTips.com! We are a group of young industry professionals providing a hip new prospective on investing in stocks. We pride ourselves in being completely unbiased. What does this mean exactly?

Unbiased that our expertise can never be bought and our opinions are not for sale. It means that we never receive compensation for the featured companies. Unlike most newsletters, we represent the reader, not the companies we are featuring. It means that our research is objective and the only interest we have is helping our readers make money – one trade at a time. We provide both information on short term and longer term investments, primarily focusing on very short term gains.

What makes StockTips different from everyone else?

Two major factors separate us from our competition. The first is very simple, we never ever receive any compensation for the companies we are featuring. We pride ourselves in being unbiased, and providing you with the right choices to make informed decisions in the markets. The second factor is part of our secret sauce, but we will tell you about it so you can get an idea as to how we work. We have signed up for just about every single stock newsletter out there. We get literally thousands of emails per week from these different providers touting various companies as being the best thing since sliced bread. Some of these promoters are ethical, some are not. To us it doesn’t matter their business practices; it only matters whether they are or are not effective in their research and their reach to their audience.

We have literally over 300 newsletter and stock promoters in our database. Every single time one of our thousands of monitored email addresses receives and email from one of these promoters, the email is examined for two things:

1. First the email is examined for the stock symbol it is promoting.
2. Second the email is examined for the source of the sender – meaning the name of the promoter or newsletter provider (we will get to why in a minute).

Now our advanced system takes both of these pieces of information (we won’t bore you with the mathematics behind it), and plugs it into our servers. The symbol is examined for its trading pattern, and the newsletter provider (stock promoter) is examined for previous performance on other pieces we have received from them in the past. We take three things into consideration on each providers past experience, dollar volume traded and stock price appreciation (depreciation in some cases) during the time that provider was featuring the company. And finally we look at the long term stock price of the company after all features have been finished and look for signs of pump and dump schemes.

In order to better explain it to you we will use an example:

StockTips.com receives an alert for Company ABC (NASDAQ: ABCD) from Stock Promoter XYZ as well as from Stock Promoter PQRS. Our system immediately takes the sum of all alerts from both stock promoters. Our system looks at each deal from each stock promoter and runs an algorithm which checks for start and end dates of the each deal on the provider, the starting stock price of the first newsletter received, the ending stock price after the campaign is finished and then takes all of the information and scores each promoter with a numerical value. The higher their score, the better the pick. If both the trading pattern of the stock, and the numerical value assigned to each promoter are above a certain level, the deal is immediately sent to our team of experts for review. This is where the real work comes in, we do tons of research on filings, company news, check out the management, we take a good long look under the hood. If after all this due diligence the company looks like a strong prospect for our members, we send it to our members in the form of an alert. We can’t give away too much more information beyond this, except to say that it works.

Our members make money with us, because the information is real and unbiased and our only interest in making sure our members making money.

Can you guarantee results with StockTips.com?

Though we would love to guarantee results, we cannot. In fact there is risk in following our strategy. We primarily focus on small cap companies which have a much heavier degree of risk associated with them, the large cap companies. However, our ability to pick winners consistently for our readers has allowed for gains of over 1,000% in a matter of days. Though we can produce a dud from time to time, our numbers speak for them selves.

What should I know before trading on StockTips Alerts?

Well first and foremost its very simple – KEEP EMOTIONS OUT OF IT! There is nothing worse for objective trading than emotions. If you trade stocks, then you already know the two biggest killers are either the far left or the far right. And now we are not talking politics, we are talking about fear and greed. These two emotions have literally killed traders and investors the world over. We at StockTips believe that fear and greed being the hardest things to manage when trading a stock. Fear when things are bad, and greed when things are good. That’s why you set rules before the trade. We like to play by the following rules:

IF ANY ONE OF THESE RULES BELOW DOES CHECK OUT DO NOT PROCEED TO THE NEXT ONE – ABORT AND WAIT FOR THE NEXT TRADE. YOU COULD LOSE ALL OF YOUR MONEY BY INVESTING IN THESE VOLATILE COMPANIES.

Identify that a company alerted to you matches your risk profile and do your own due diligence.
Identify a dollar amount that you are willing to invest in the company. Once you pick your number be firm and don’t let greed take you down a very dark place – we call this the abyss.
Set an entry price before the trade that you will not get in above. Again be resolute – a deal is only good if the math works, so establish an entry price and if you miss it, oh well – there will be more deals – we promise. There is nothing worst than chasing the offers up, only to find the stock trading backwards and you are left holding the bag.

Trade with a stop loss. Make sure your broker allows for stop losses, and always use it. This is your safety net in case a stock starts to trade backwards. And always be sure to move your stop loss up as the stock price moves up so that you can always book your profits. If you follow this rule, you will find that your gains could be infinite, but your losses can be minimized just by following this simple rule.
Know that some of the companies that even we feature are not great companies, we told you this from the get go, but that does not mean you can’t make a great deal of money on them. We would hope that you understand this when doing your own research and try to exit before the masses so you can book your profits and move on to the next trade.

NEVER EVER GET EMOTIONAL – DON’T LET FEAR OR GREED TRADE ON YOUR BEHALF, FOLLOW THE RULES!
