Like you do with stocks, you have at least a couple of broad choices to choose from. One is you determine what to buy with fundamental analysis. And the other is with technical analysis. The third option is to leverage a system like The Portfolio Prophet that has both of analytical styles already programmed in it, to evaluate and provide guidance accordingly.
With fundamental analysis you are trying to analyze economic factors, financial performance, competitive strengths and weaknesses, growth rates, threats to the business, and so on of the units (stocks, bonds, etc) held by the fund. And from that analysis select the best funds to buy. This process can be extremely time consuming and frustrating for an individual just starting out. Another fundamental strategy is to switch in and out of different ETFs on a rotational basis to those that appear to be the leaders at any point in time.
Most fundamental approaches to investing in ETFs include a buy and hold kind of strategy where you are always 100% invested. One of the big problems with this approach is a long portfolio of ETFs will get hammered in a bear market and take possibly years to recover to the initial investment level, no different than would be the case for individual stock or bond trading.
With technical analysis you are trying to analyze the action of the ETF share prices using trend lines, support and resistance levels, moving averages, and countless other price related indicators to determine good trading opportunities. Technical analysis is based on the belief that all fundamentals are already comprehended in the price of the shares and so an analysis of price is all that is required to make trading decisions.
Most technical analysis approaches involve trading in and out of ETFs for a relatively short time frame rather than always being in the market fully invested, thus having the potential to stay in cash or be predominantly short in a bear market. The challenge for technical analysts is to develop an edge when trading the markets with common technical indicators but using uncommon trading tactics.
In either case, the beauty of the Portfolio Prophet system that we created is that you no longer have to spend time evaluating which ETFs to invest with. The system does it automatically for you.
