Introduction
'Power Dips' is a strategy for entering a stock position based on breakout to a 52-week high followed by a pullback to the support level which was the previous high prior to the breakout. This is a short-term speculative strategy and the strategy identifies what may be an optimal entry point, but does not consider other factors that may be of interest to the investor, such as company fundamentals, and overall market conditions. I am only identifying stocks with optimal entry points, not providing exit signals.
Notice! I am providing all patterns that meet the above criteria. However, I find that the best trade signals come when there is a large bullish trend followed by swift and fairly large pullback to the support level. When the bullish trend is not impressive or the pullback is slow there is a high chance that the support will be breached with further downside.

About Digital Transformation, the Marketplace Service
The Digital Transformation marketplace service was started at the beginning of 2020 and currently offers four 10-stock portfolios that are updated on a weekly basis. Three of the portfolios have stock holdings that are determined by quantitative analysis, primarily based on sales growth, consistency of growth, sales surprises, and lowest operational leverage. The fourth portfolio is based on the author's discretionary picks.
The performance statistics provided below are hypothetical and no claim is made that any investor would have achieved the same or similar results. The author of this service believes that the results are reflective of practical usage, including slippage and commission but results might vary on an individual basis.
There is no guarantee or promise of future performance which will be very dependent on, among other factors, the continued bullish trend in software stocks. This is a very volatile market sector and risk is high. The author is not a financial or investment advisor and does not provide individual advice to investors.
