How to
Maximize Your Return
In Up or Down Markets
Remember at the beginning of this report when we said
we’d show you the Three Simple Steps to Stock
Profits?
We already learned about step one: picking profitable stock
patterns. We’ve also covered step two: minimizing your
risk. Now we’ve come to the final step that makes the ChartAdvior system so unique: how to profit from
stocks, even when the stock goes down.
It’s a common misconception that traders can only make
money when the price of a stock rises.
Investors can make money anytime they
can predict a stock’s future movement – up or
down.
It’s time to learn about short
selling.
Short selling is the secret to making cash in a down market.
Here’s how it works:
1. Identify a stock pattern that suggests a stock
is headed down.
Example: The Cleveland Cliffs descending triangle pattern
in April of 2005 was perfect for short selling.

2. Borrow shares of the soon-to-decline stock from
your brokerage.
Example: Let’s say, right before the Cleveland
Cliffs pattern (above) breaks out and moves downwards, you
borrow 100 shares of the stock.
3. Immediately sell these borrowed shares.
Example: You immediately sell these borrowed shares
of Cleveland Cliffs at the price just below the support
line: $70 per share, 100 shares = $7,000. You are now sitting
on $7,000. But, of course, you still owe the brokerage 100
shares, which you don’t currently have anymore.
4. Wait for the stock to drop to your target price.
Example: You wait for the stock to reach the target
price, which in this example, is $63 per share.
5. Buy the shares at the target price.
Example: You use the $7,000 you made earlier to purchase
100 shares at $63 per share. That costs you $6,300 dollars
and leaves you with an extra $700 in your account.
6. You return the shares to your brokerage.
Example: Return the 100 shares of Cleveland Cliffs
to your brokerage.
7. Enjoy your profits.
Example: You earned $700, a 10% profit on $7,000. And
even better, you made $700 when the price of CLF declined
and all other investors were losing money!
