What is the CANSLIM Strategy?

CANSLIM is a stock-picking method created by famous investor William O’Neil. It is designed to find fast-growing companies before their stock prices make massive jumps. Each letter in the word stands for a specific rule you must look for before buying a stock:

• C — Current Earnings: The company must have strong profit growth in its most recent quarter.
• A — Annual Earnings: The company must show steady, growing profits over the last few years.
• N — New: The company needs a new catalyst. This could be a new product, new management, new industry trends, or hitting a new high stock price.
• S — Supply and Demand: The stock should have high trading volume on days its price goes up. This shows that big money is buying the stock.
• L — Leader: The stock must be a top performer in its specific industry. It should have a high Relative Strength (RS) rating, meaning it beats most other stocks in the market.
• I — Institutional Sponsorship: Big, successful investors (like mutual funds or banks) are actively buying the stock.
• M — Market Direction: You should only buy when the overall stock market is in an uptrend. If the general market is crashing, even the best stocks will fall.
