    [[abstract]]We employ the constituent stocks of Taiwan 50 as our sample and explore if investors can beat the market by trading them as trading signals emitted by Bollinger Bands (BBs). Results reveal that investors might beat the market by taking long positions on stocks as share prices hit the lower BBs, as significantly shown in the positive abnormal returns. In addition, investors might also take the long positions instead of short positions when share prices reach the upper BBs. Thus, investors should employ momentum strategies instead of contrarian strategies while hitting upper BBs.[[notice]]補正完

    [[abstract]]We observe that the sharp movement in exchange rates including USDX, GBP/USD, and USD/CNY might result in stock market fluctuation due to investors’ sentiments aroused. To our knowledge, we argue that the subsequent performance of trading stocks right after the sharp movement in exchange rates seems seldom explored in the relevant studies, which may contribute to the existing literature. By employing the constituent stocks of DJ 30, FTSE 100, and SSE 50 as our targets due to these markets regarded as representative stock markets in the world, we then reveal that the share prices are more volatile after diverse sharp movements in Chinese Yuan, even though Chinese Yuan is less volatile due to Chinese Yuan likely managed by the authority; whereas, share prices would rise no matter what sharp depreciation or sharp appreciation occurs in US Dollar and British Pound rather impressive for investors.[[notice]]補正完

    [[abstract]]Stock price overreaction seems always regarded as an essential issue in recent decades. Due to big data concerns, this study explores whether investors can make profits by trading the constituent stocks of DJ30, FTSE100, and SSE50 as stochastic oscillator indicator (SOI) staying in diverse overreaction zones including overbought and oversold, stricter overbought and oversold, and extreme overbought and oversold zones for consecutive days. Although we argue that the SOI staying in overreaction zones for consecutive days is often appeared in the real world, this issue, to our knowledge, seems unexplored in the existing literature. Results show that momentum strategies are appropriate for holding these stocks in the long run as the SOI staying in overbought zones, whereas contrarian strategies are proper for holding these stocks in the short run as the SOI staying in oversold zones. These revealed results may be beneficial for investors to trade these stocks as the SOI staying in overreaction zones for consecutive days.[[notice]]補正完
