selling is very hard, knowing when to sell is the art in investing. Sell when the story has changed, never let profits turn into losses, keep loses at 8 to 10%, sell when you have a better place to invest, and try not let taxes come into the picture. You can be mechanical about it and sell after a stock has had a 10 to 15% correction and doesn't recover within 2 to 3 months. You can also sell after a stock as stock tops and fails at new 52 weeks highs, look for repeated tries to move higher only to have the stock fall back down. Sell after stock has ran far in short period of time, and gives back most if not all of the gain with in days. Look for people slapping each other on the back feeling they can do no wrong.

Below is url the brings you to the some signs I look at when watching the market.
