I have heard that winningstockpickers@gmail.com is giving an E-book dealing with these and many other issues FREE of charge. They are aslo including some other pretty awesome stuff. Just e-mail them and they will get back with you right away. Let them know you are interested and they will send the E -book over.
If you want to use a specific trading strategy, then my advice would be to make sure that YOU have tested it and have confirmation that it can be successful.
There is software available that will test strategies using maket data from the past 20 years. Metastock from equis is well known and comes with a number of predefined trading strategies, which you can test.
Stocks monthly also offers a well tested trading strategy, and they will provide you with a list of stocks every month.
Do read some books on the subject. Visit your local book store and find a book that you like and feel comfortable with.
Some of the titles I have on my bookshelf include:
One Up on Wall Street by Peter Lynch
How to make money in Stocks by William J. O’Neil (Founder of Investor’s Business Daily)
The Millionaire Next Door by Thomas J Stanley and William D Danco
Check out web sites like fool.com and yahoo finance.
Investigate trading strategies with a proven track record over 3, 5, 10, and 15 years.
Pick something that you understand, find easy to use, will help you realise your goals, and where you can take responsibility for your investments and be in full control of your capital.
