Momentum investment strategies involve taking long positions on stocks that show positive momentum (winners) and shorting those with negative momentum (losers). By relying on past information to predict future performance, momentum exploits a market anomaly. In this document I illustrate the strategy by generating a signal to buy (long position) or sell (short position) based on historical information.
