How I Outperform The Market

I am a Growth Stock Investor and I follow Mr. William O'Neil's (founder of Investors Business Daily) methodology of trading Growth Stocks. Studies by IBD has shown that Growth Stocks tend to perform 2 to 2.5 times better than the average performance of the market, as measured by the performance of $SPY. My strategy involves:

Buy "High and Sell Higher"
Do not "Buy and Hold"
Do not "Buy Cheap Stocks"
Buy "Right and Sell Right"
"Harvest Profits" as the stock moves higher
Use "Trailing Stops" to protect profits and mitigate losses

That is exactly what I did with the leading Growth Stocks that I had brought to the attention of my readers and followers through my blog posts and my daily tweets. The two major Indexex and my 28 stocks had the following performance for the last 2 weeks:

$QQQ ... -0.09%
$SPY ... +0.18%
28 Stocks +0.87% (Out Performed the Market by 4.83 times)

Performance of My 28 Stocks

9 of the 28 stocks retraced from the 8 day ema (exponential moving average) but did not trigger the trailing stops. They are still in the profit zone from their initial buys. Rest of the 18 stocks continued to move higher or were consolidating along the 8 day ema while the market was correcting. I have indicated in parenthesis, how much was the loss and how much was the gain for the last two weeks from 8/14 to 8/25
