Stock Selection

How do you tell when a stock is gaining strength?

3 Aug 2026 · Edited from Martin’s stream; not a verbatim quotation.

Every day I go through my watchlists and scans. By reviewing all the stocks, you can tell which are doing better. If you keep seeing stocks such as TDOC and Snow performing well, then compare them with mediocre names. SE may still be above all its EMAs, while Shopify has dropped below the nine and 21 and is not as good. Affirm may be okay, and Adobe and other names may be breaking out from their lows. Comparing many stocks repeatedly helps you recognize relative strength.
