in terms of research, I tried the charts, and whilist the charts hold value for some (I know OB uses them for certain things), good old fashioned bean counting serves me well...(OB also counts beans too).
Get too know the companies your looking at, look at the books, look at the news, heck, even look at the charts if you can interpret them like people interpret them.
IF a company has a decent sound financial footing, your off too a good start. IF it doesnt, you have too look too factioring in "what ifs", "mabye`s" and where the world currently is....
Im a sad bean counter, so the amount of beans in the can is where I start :)
