D.H: If you buy ,it is just simple momentum investing but not swing trading. This requires you to be ready to close your position if necessary at a loss. On the +ve side, you move up your stop accordingly. Value does not come into the equation. The reward/risk is equal.

Value investing indicates the investor should see a better oppurtunity as the current prices are high.
There is no surety that the price will decline. However the risk in waiting is small but the reward is big if the market declines. Experience shows that Investors who jump in early can loose 60% of the rise from the low.

Momentum investing requires 8 hrs of screen time which most of us do not have.
