I have been investing in the stock market for over 10 years. Put some in mutual funds, actively traded stocks etc. Most of the investments have been losses or some complete losses (GM and Circuit City were 2 investments that didn't turn out so well.)

I have started using the investing method termed the "Dead Cat Bounce". Basically it is investing in stocks that have dropped a lot in one day. I tweak it a little and don't invest in drug stocks that have tanked or in micro stocks with no volume. I have used a specific formula of which loser stock to invest in and so far I am up about 20% for the year.

I was just curious if anyone else has used this sort of stock investment strategy and if you had any tips, tricks, or horror stories.
