One thing i look for as a value investor is a chart similar to the one below...ive had 100% success over the last 10 months buying stocks with a down trending Share price...the stock below i brought into last week after watching since January.

Hope it goes without saying that i know the stock reasonably well and have some degree of confidence.

ROE,

to find intrinsic value of your Company, are you comparing current EPS and dividing it by your selected govt bond interest rate. Either 5/10 years?

I listen to recommendations from this forum!!!

Yes, all jokes aside sometimes you do get a few worthwhile pointers and of course it is still a matter of DYOR but it saves a lot of time if someone is willing or kind enough to point you in the general direction to look.
