Paula,
Thank you for your kind remarks.
I have “retired” from active investing and moved all of my funds into dividend paying stocks.
Although, I met a man who had a simple investing strategy.
David would only buy a name that he had been following as it moved above the 20 EMA.
He would sell if it moved below the 10 EMA.
He applied this strategy over a long period of time and was successful with it.
The last time we spoke, he had just turned 92!!!!
