TheRumpledOne, :) you still didn't answer my question but it's ok. I know your secret formula will remain locked within yourself for perhaps forever. It's all good though because you do show many of the forum members that filters in here work and work well. Just have to go find the right one that fits your style of investing.
And may you also have a wonderful time in the investing world!

Marine:
You are looking in the "wrong" place.
Filters are a STARTING POINT... NOT AN END.
You must master TRADING.
It's not what stock you trade, it's HOW YOU TRADE IT.
There is no magic filter that will give stocks to buy and they all go up (except maybe my secret one...lol). Even if there was one, you would still have to SELL FOR A PROFIT BEFORE THE MARKET TAKES IT ALL BACK.
There's a filter you can use to find UPTRENDING stocks at their rsi(2) 200 day low. If you find one that shows a pattern of bottoming and running back up, LOAD THE BOAT AND TRADE IT FOR PROFIT.
SIGM is on the list. I have never traded SIGM and I don't know what they do.
What the 3 month/daily chart show me is that there is money to be made with SIGM.
Safe play is to wait for SIGM to close above its daily ema(5) and then load the boat.. TAKE PROFIT before the market takes it back. If you buy 1000 shares and show a nice profit.. sell 1/2 and let the rest ride... use a breakeven stop... then you make money no matter what happens next.
THIS IS SIMPLE... DO NOT COMPLICATE IT.... LESSON OVER.
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

A screen using RSI(2)?
What are you going to find using a 2 day period indicator with a 200 day low range? It's value in your scan is 3% using view results by component so it's really returning nothing. Most key indicators when used correctly in a screen line dominate the screens returns as they were intended to with a high % of say 80+%. RSI(2) is an intraday scalping tool when you've already taken a position and useless in a screen as a hunting aid for new entries. JMHO

Marine2... you're cracking me up!
I am not up to bat. I know what RSI(2) does. Some people learn from books, follow the crowd and get what the crowd gets. Others, blaze new trails, turn a deaf ear to the herd, and reap huge rewards. THE CHOICE IS YOURS!
SIGM.. too funny, had earnings today... NEVER load up the day of earnings unless you have friends on the inside... and that's against the law! SIGM up 2.7% in after hours... once again, RSI(2)!
MAGS RSI(2) 3 days ago was 2.83 at $10.31 close. Today, MAGS closed at $12.22.
Care to compute the percent gain?
Your mission, if you accept this assignment, is to find an uptrending stock that did NOT make money after hitting its RSI(2) 200 day low. You'll find a needle in a haystack much quicker..lol
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE!

TheRumpledOne, I was just alerting you to someone that has just shot at your ships bow aiming to sink it. Was wondering if you were going to respond to his negative comment.
You did respond in a general statement attesting to your filtering tools remarkable past achievements, and current achievements. With examples no-less. You do give many of us grand hopes for doing better things in here and we appreciate it.
Carry-on!

TheRumpledOne -- your RSI (2) work has been very good. I have been reading all of your material for several months. I have been working with your last comment of finding a stock that did not make money in an uptrending stock after hitting its RSI (2) 200 day low. I have been using 30 to 200 day slope of the close > 0 and cannot seem to get it to work. I need a little more help.
Thanks
David
