A valuable lesson to learn is that by combining technical and fundamental analysis in your decision making process can maximise your returns and minimise risk. A few examples are:

1. Know the PER (price earnings ratio) of each company and how it compares to the industry it is in. This s important in helping you to decide whether a stock is over or under valued.

2. Always take the stocks Dividend Ex date into consideration when implementing a strategy. Knowing when the stock is going ex dividend, you can avoid following a false trend based on dividend factors, or you can use the information to pursue income strategies.
