The second category of investments is for the bolder and more active perspective trader representing trading on a regular basis. The returns can be quite high, but the risk is entirely dependent on the wisdom of the investor. One group member will trade with the old market adage of "buy low and sell high.” Essentially, this trading will use charts, news and other information to try to guess peaks and valleys in a stock price and is known officially as countertrend investing. The second active strategy will attempt to identify established market trends to buy into stocks and hold onto them until the trend has reversed. This strategy is known as trend following and makes its profit from the "meat in the middle" between valleys and peaks of trends.
