"Buy low, sell high" is a goal, not a strategy. How do you try to achieve it?

I'm pretty aggressive with my investments right now. I have about 25% going into large caps. I have about 50% going into speculative small caps. The last 25% is split between mutual funds and dividend generators.

Become a value investor
That is done by evaluating the companies financial statements and looking at certain ratios like Price to earnings, and others to see which companies are undervalued, then you buy those stocks, when they get to where there valuations are high, you sell.

Pretty agressive.
60% stock, 30% bonds, 10% monetary. Half of the bonds are convertibles, a quarter of the stocks are commodities.
The bonds are for the long term, the stocks rotate quickly, typical holding times of 3 to 6 months. I try to capture trends on reasonably priced (PEG < 1) not too big stocks.

buy at a period when prices are low, sell when the economy is doing better, to sell at higher prices =)
OR
buy when the demand is low, sell when the demand is high =)
Hope this helps, Peace.
