Four Energy Bargains

I agree that all the companies you mentioned are great companie and great buys. The question to ask is when do you buy them? Obviously the most important issue is price. Stocks can languish for years, even great ones. I try to use fundamental analysis when picking stocks, but I throw in a little technical analysis when picking a buy point. I put up a chart of the company then add a 20 day moving average and a 50 day moving average. When the 20 crosses the 50 its a time to buy. Otherwise you are buying into a declining trend. Why would you want to do that?
If you had owned wft and sold when the 20 crossed under the 50 you'd have gotten out at around 45 and would be sitting pretty on the sidelines waiting to buy wft back.
