Fellow traders take at least half the time you're spending on filter writing and tweaking and use that time to study TRADING and MONEY MANAGEMENT!
IT'S NOT WHAT STOCK YOU TRADE, IT'S HOW YOU TRADE IT!

Shot across the bow...up to bat...
Marine you do have a great sense of humor and to clarify any ruffled feathers, in every instance of stock examples presented, there were other factors at work that truely caused the move. If RSI(2) 200 day low works for you...great. I'd rather not have to focus on 20+ returns from a scan to find the one single gainer. Much easier to script to a return list of 5 that are truely at inflection point from an alignment of more than one single indicator. Good Luck to you. And to the contrary...who follows the herd? LOL

I was introduced to RSI(2) about two years ago from reading Rumple one posting. So far I been trading RSI(2) ever since. Look at Staples (SPLS) Touched liner regression 3,6, and 1 year chart (http://www.prophet.net).. Had a low RSI(2). I loaded the boat and made some money. It is a very simple concept. The bottom line is money management. Know how much risk you are willing to take and wait for green. Set your stop very tight and take all the money you can.
Thanks Rumple for introducing RSI(2) to me two years ago….

Rumpled One,
I backtested the filter between 1 and 30 days. While some did advance the overall numbers make the needle in the haystack claim dubiuos. If the scan
generates 20 picks, how is one to determine how to pare the list?
Regards,
Rich

Hi, I have backtestet the following screen and I have never seen better results by just buying all the stocks that match and hold for 4 Days:
show stocks where count(RSI(2) 1 day ago above 99,60)
is above 0 and RSI(2) is below 5 and average volume(10)
above 50000 and CLOSE ABOVE .20 and close
more than 10% below close 1 day ago
A lot in the performance measures are due to positive gaps from the evening the screen runs and the next morning, which I would like to catch!
What I would like to be able to do is run this screen realtime or neartime (15 min before close!). Is there a possibility to do this?
Thank you
Andreas

Judge...
You can get a real time service like tradestation and use their radar screen and screen for rsi(2) < 1 in real time (I have this).
Or you can use www.prophet.net (free version), set up a watch list, and scroll down a 10 day/60 min chart looking for RED CANDLES and RSI(2) lows... to find the ones that just may pop the next morning (I have this, too).
Remember, trading's a guessing game.... ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Lol, sounds like a buy-out statement on that one TheRumpledOne. But it's all cool.

Those who doubt RSI(2)... did you see what HOFF did after daily RSI(2) = .232 on Friday?
HOFF closed at .46 on Friday, opened at .40 on Monday and peaked at .73 on Tuesday.
Hey Marine2, what's the percent gain?
RSI(2) SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.

Thank you for answering my question TheRumpledOne! I saw HOFF!
Since I am a system trader, how can I trade the following in realtime:
show stocks where count(RSI(2) 1 day ago above 99,60)
is above 0 and RSI(2) is below 5 and average volume(10)
above 50000 and CLOSE ABOVE .20 and close
more than 10% below close 1 day ago
You get a list and you buy only the stocks that are in the red at market close. I backtested this idea with the following an the results are great:
show stocks where count(RSI(2) 2 day ago above 99,60)
is above 0 and RSI(2) 1 day ago is below 5 and average volume(10)
above 50000 and CLOSE ABOVE .20 and close one day ago
more than 10% below close 2 day ago
and close more then 5% below close 1 day ago
System rules: run the first screen, wait for close, buy the stocks that are
in the red. For every day allocate 10.000, if there are 10 Stocks divide by 10,
if there are 4 divide by 4. Maximum investment is 2500, if there are less then 4 Stocks. Hold for 4 Days, Stop Loss is 25% per Position.
I calculated this with Excel and I never got a better capital curve.
I will test it fom 1997 until 2005, since this can not be automated, this
will be a lot of work, but I think it will be great!
