I usually mostly rely on asset allocation mixed with a list of stocks I like and prices where I think they are good to add to and then I have the same for taking profits. If you are 50:50 with $1M in cash and $1M in stocks and the market crashes 10%, there is a ton of cash available just to get back to 50:50. See Using Asset Allocation to make money in a Flat Market Add a little hysteresis using sentiment, technical charts, fundamental analysis etc.... and you can try to do even better. Just remember that I'm 100% sure now that many stocks I make a bundle with look extremely under valued when you should be taking profits... then when the analysts downgrade earnings after they correct a bundle, they become extremely over valued. Just look at stocks such as LRCX for example... I got the idea of making energy to push a surfboard with a flat ocean.... energy hits a shelf, forms a breaking wave and you ride it.... One of these days I'll update that article, but the technique is still valid.
