 Frank, I started manually testing your system.  I  was going to use 2012 as a starting point.  Before I go any further on 11/16/2012 ( Friday), TZA (it does not have a earning date) was one of stocks in the top 5.  Monday's open was 70.28.  If you were looking at a 2% gain, that would make your exit at 71.68 (70.28 *1.02).  TZA has never hit 71.68 since.  What did you do in this case to prevent a HUGH LOSS, since you said you didn't use a stop loss?  Was there a split?  Thanks.

 While reading the user guide I noticed an issue with this filter and its use of the count command.
 
 This filter uses weekly data BUT the count command only uses DAILY data.
 
 count(Long_Profit > .04 , 52)
 
 This would be looking at the last 52 days and NOT THE LAST 52 WEEKS!
 
 Is there a way to make count use weekly data?  Can this be done another way?
 
 Thanks!

 I'm not sure but I believe the filter does look back 52 weeks. Running the filter on page 1 and clicking on the 50-99 column you get the stocks that are supposed to have made a number of over 50 % gains during either the 52 day or 52 week timeframe. Looking at the charts I would say 52 weeks.
 
 Perhaps SF staff can give a conclusive answer.

 I too, would like an explanation.  The filter works, and jemarcks does have a point,

 stockfetcher, can you confirm the documentation for the count command is correct?
 Does it only use daily data?
 
 Thanks.
 jeff

 Anyone else still using this filter.  I got great results from it in 2016 and continue to use it on a weekly basis?

 My picks this week: AROC, CDE, CLF, GORO, and SN.
 
 I mistakenly posted this in the 5% filter by Kevin.
