Stocktrends Publications

Stock quotes, stock charts, stock tips, earnings reports, newspapers, investment newsletters, market gurus, fundamental analysis, technical analysis... with so many sources of stock market information - how do you pick the 'right' time to buy (or sell) a stock? If you need a simpler approach to stock market analysis and stock trading... Stock Trends WILL help you.

Stocktrends Publications is committed to delivering simple but effective equity market analysis to investors. Publishing weekly since 1993, our Stock Trends indicators empower investors by providing a results-driven methodology for trading. Stock Trends Weekly Reporter reports on the North American stock market in a unique way. This weekly publication helps investors quickly locate trends, simplifying the process of understanding the market action.

If you are not content with having your equity capital managed by others - and paying handsomely for it - and do not have the time or inclination for more active day trading, this is the place for you. If you would like to take charge of your own trading by following a simple system of trend analysis, Stock Trends will help you make trading profits and long-term returns on invested capital.

The Stock Trends Handbook addresses the subject of basic technical stock analysis in a practical, easy-to-read style. The Handbook discusses the origins of Stock Trends and how to use Stock Trends symbols and indicators in your everyday investment analysis and trading decisions. It also contains chapters devoted to a detailed description of the Stock Trends statistical trading models and introduces the Stock Trends model portfolios, our automated trading strategies.

Stock Trends Handbook
A guide to stock analysis using Stock Trends

It’s not good enough to be anecdotal or doctrinaire when it comes to trading. Systematic traders understand that without the integrity of data science, they are simply ticker-tape cowboys. This is the reason I set out to create Stock Trends in 1992. The core mission of this service is to provide a methodology that allows investors to harness the power of the algorithm. The Stock Trends indicators are features of market data that can be learned from -  either by individual investors applying their own methodology or by machine learning algorithms that create models for predicting future outcomes. That is where my focus is now - delivering predictive models from the Stock Trends data. These models will help investors navigate all markets.

I have had the good fortune to be involved in developing computer systems for a wide variety of businesses, including investment brokerage and portfolio management, which led to my ultimate involvement with Skot and Stock Trends in 1995. Being a pragmatist, the ‘KISS’ attributes of the Stock Trends methodology were not lost on me, and I am proud to be associated with the continuing development of this highly successful and valuable product.



Subscriber Testimonials

    Karin M., Subscriber

    Subscriber

  • An admitted cynic, it's obviously very high praise when he says he likes StockTrends because of its "simplicity, utility, openness, [and] honesty," and in addition to having "no hidden agenda" is "understandably documented [and] historically verifiable." And, he adds, "It lets me see a lot of things without doing a lot of work." Globe and Mail

    Paul W., Subscriber

  • Thank you for your excellent work and kind approach to your customers.

    Odette C., Subscriber

  • I want to thank you for posting such an excellent guide to technical analysis on the web. You have provided a great service to all of us novice investors.

    Michael C., Stock Trends user

  • Stock Trends analysis quantifies nicely the movement of individual stocks. I’ve found that if the technicals are out of synch with fundamental analysis, it is a wake-up call to make a decision. The Stock Trends Bull/Bear Ratio is useful in identifying major market bottoms and tops. It has always presented a good buying or selling opportunity.

    Charles G., Subscriber

  • I am fascinated with your service and methodology - it is very impressive. [...] Over the years I have concluded that there are many ways to approach stock investing, but once one has chosen a path, one is better off sticking to it.

    Bob E., Subscriber

  • I am something of a momentum investor. I find Stock Trends useful as I can look at my portfolio as a “watch list” and quickly see where trends are declining in strength or reversing, so it is particularly useful as a tool in portfolio management regarding sales.

    William C., Subscriber

  • I've followed your recommendations since reading your columns in the Globe & Mail, and finding they published Stock Trends arrows in their financial listings. I do find them a guide to the general market and what I should be avoiding for declining chart trends.
    Has probably saved me the subscription by not rushing into hot stocks!

    Anthony D., Subscriber

  • There is a lot to be gained from comparing trends of how individual stocks are doing within a sector, as well as how the sector is performing relative to the broad market.

    Dudley R., Subscriber

  • I use Stock Trends to help direct my stock picks. Also, following the advice of Stock Trends I have religiously used stop-loss orders and have avoided hanging on to losing stocks for emotional reasons.

    John B., Subscriber

  • Just thought I'd call to thank you, Skot. Stock Trends Weekly Reporter helped pay for my daughter's education!

    Peter H., Subscriber

  • I've followed a number of Stock Trends picks, and the methodology is solid.

    Doug B., Subscriber

  • Hence, anyone who had followed the "Stock Trends" line should have sold their Bre-X shares and, with the windfall, paid for a lifetime subscription to The Globe and Mail and more. Talk about return on investment!

  • Technology Sector Split: Hardware & Chips vs. Software – A Deep Dive with Stock Trends
    Technology Sector Split: Hardware & Chips vs. Software – A Deep Dive with Stock Trends The uncertain interest rate environment is evident in a number of sectors, and the stock market is always reflecting both the trend of the cost of capital and the anticipation of changes in it. The technology sector is especially sensitive to interest rates and generally feeds off the risk-on investor appetite supported by lower interest rates or expectations of relatively lower rates. But all technology…

  • Resource rotation remains strong
    Resource rotation remains strong The summer season is coming to a close. It is sometimes a sleepy market season because investor attention is elsewhere. However, the market has provided us with some definite messaging over the past few months. The themes of rotation and building strength in resources and energy stocks, notably fueled by an AI transformation across the broader economy, are key highlights that investors should pay attention…
