Buy the Fear, Sell the Greed - HARDCOVER

How Would You Like To Make Money When Traders Panic? Here’s How You Can Systematically Make Money When They Do.

Introducing Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed – 7 Behavioral Quant Strategies for Traders by Larry Connors

Dear Trader,

As all professional traders know, the greatest trading edges occur when money managers, investors, and traders panic.

They sell-off securities, often-times to extreme levels and after they’re done selling, the strong money (the professional money) enters the market and takes prices higher.

This behavior creates great trading opportunities for the professionals who know when to buy. And this same behavior has occurred over and over again for decades and will likely do so for years to come because human behavior never changes!

Now, for the first time, in Larry Connors new book Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed – 7 Behavioral Quant Strategies for Traders you will learn how to precisely identify when money managers, investors, and traders are fearful and panicking. When they are, substantial quantified trading opportunities exist for you to take advantage of.

In Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed you’ll learn when to exactly buy these large edge, high probability times, and when to exactly sell.

You will learn from the many strategies in this book that you will be buying low because fear is high and selling higher when the fear subsides. You’ve seen this play out over and over again nearly every trading day. Now, for the first time you will have a quantified, systematic way to identify and trade these often highly profitable trading opportunities.

Why Do Money Managers, Investors, and Traders Panic and How Can You Profit From Their Fear?

Imagine how someone feels owning a stock or an ETF which has lost money multiple days in a row. How do you think he feels when this happens?

Now imagine he loses even more money again today. He feels even worse, doesn’t he? The horrible symptoms that come from stress and fear are now being felt by him. Dizziness, nausea, stomach problems, and fear of helplessness are all medically proven symptoms that accompany stress and fear.

Now imagine that after the close, a negative news story comes out and the media induces panic overnight and that stock or ETF plunges even further the next day. The media quotes influential sources who state that prices can only go longer. How rational is this already stressed out and fearful person going to be?

How does that trader react? Further losses, panic intra-day selling, and supposedly prices are going even lower often turns this person into a mental wreck. And people under this type of stress don’t act rationally! They panic and they often blow out of positions because the losses are so large and things look like they’re only going to get worse.

So what happens then? Prices rise the majority of the time. They often don’t drop further, they actually rise!

This fear creates a buy signal taught in Chapter 2 of Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed. This strategy signal has been correct 91% of the time over the past quarter of a century. Fear is at an extreme and you will learn how to quantify and trade fear just like this because the opportunities are so great for traders who know when and how to buy during this time.

• Two days later, prices rise significantly higher as they have 91% of the time when this signal triggers. It’s time to lock in your gains

  
  

  Human behavior repeats itself over and over again in the markets.

Fear Creates Edges! The Greater The Fear, The Greater The Edges

Money managers, investors, and traders, repeatedly become fearful and pause their buying because of any number of things including upcoming economic reports, upcoming news events, or a current major news event. This fear sometimes lasts as short as a few hours to as long as a few days or weeks.

When this fear occurs, buyers stop buying and sellers often accelerate their selling taking prices even lower. From there, historically large-edge opportunities appear for the smart traders who know when to step in and buy.

Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed will teach you the precise times to enter and exit these high probability opportunities on a structured, disciplined basis to take advantage of these fear-driven mis-pricing of stocks and ETFs.

If you are looking for ways to enhance your trading returns on a structured, repeatable basis, these quantified strategies are designed to exactly do this for you.

Here Is Additional Knowledge For You About Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed

1. Every Strategy in Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed Is Quantified

This means every strategy has a fixed set of rules (fixed set of inputs) and is backed by anywhere from as short as 9 years of historical test results to as long as 25 years of test results.

Buy signals occur when fear is high, and short selling signals on stocks and ETFs occur when greed is at its greatest. Throughout this book you’re going to do exactly as the books title states, you’re going to buy the fear and sell the greed. And the main reason you’re going to do this is because there are quantified behavioral edges that occur over and over again for you take advantage of.

2. Buying Fear, In A Systematic Quantified Way, Is One of the Few Built-In Edges That Exist in The Marketplace. Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed Proves This

The greater the fear, the greater the mispricing of securities, which means the greater the edges are for you. In this book we identify when the fear is in place, why it’s in place, how to systematically trade it when it’s in place, and we fully quantify this going back as long as 25 years of trading.

3. Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed Has A Simple Repeatable, 4-Step Process For You To Trade Historically High Probability, Large Edge Strategies

4. Every strategy is easy to understand and simple to learn. Each has 4-steps which you will then be able to apply daily as you buy fear and sell greed. They are…

Step 1. Precisely identify where there is a high level of fear.

Step 2. Enter the positions at exact times and prices when fear from money managers, investors, and traders is near or at its highest.

Step 3. Exit the position at the precise time when money managers, investors and traders feel “it’s now safer to come into the market”

Yes, it may be safer for them to come back into the market. It also occurs when prices are higher the majority of the time and when the quantified edges have disappeared.

On average when it’s been “safer” to come back in, prices have been higher over 81% of the time up to 97% of the time usually within 3-7 days over the past quarter of a century.

You will learn how to buy at the lower prices because of their fear.

Step 4. You will be able to repeat this same trading process over and over again for the rest of your life. You have seen this – fear rises and then subsides over and over again. This consistently provides traders with high probability trading opportunities. This inherent market behavior has been seen for decades and is systematized and quantified for you in this book.

5. Fear Is Hardwired in Humans!

This has been proven over and over by science. There are many dozens of scientific studies done with MRI’s which show that the brain changes when fear is present.

Please remember this. It’s an important part of the reason the trading edges and biases you’ll learn from the book exist.

There are no guarantees in trading and there are no guarantees of future performance in this book. But, human behavior, especially fear and greed, will always be in the marketplace. All the strategies in Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed take advantage of this repeatable behavior in a quantified, structured, systematic manner.

6. Why Do So Many Panic Sell-Offs Eventually Reverse?

Legendary market strategist and technician Tom DeMark once said that real market bottoms don’t occur because buyers come piling back into the market or a stock at the same time. They occur because the selling has lessened or stopped.

We agree with Tom because we see this statistically and you will too. The bottoms that occur when fear is high occur after all the scared money has sold.

Sometimes the buyers immediately step-in. Other times (and this is more often), the buyers gradually return after they see conditions to be safer than they were. These buyers are buying after the fear has subsided. And they’re often paying a higher price and are buying when there are no longer short-term edges in place. Those who stepped in near the peak of the fear, are the ones who are consistently most rewarded.

In Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed, you will learn a number of statistically proven ways to systematically buy the fear, oftentimes when fear is at its highest. You’ll be buying as the final sellers are selling out their stock or ETF, usually because they can no longer take the pain.

Warren Buffett created his wealth by following his own advice to “be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others are fearful.” Stated another way, what Warren Buffett has been saying for decades is “Buy The Fear, Sell The Greed.”
