FUQI also kicking ass today. A long time 5% runner (22 straight weeks before last week's miss).

Not yet. Took positions in the top 3 last week, only MED paid out. No positions this week on this strategy.

So let me ask this on operations using this filter. Are you scanning on the weekend and buying at the open? Seems like there a couple of stocks making the target each week.

I took kfn this week and made 7%. I'm taking 25% off at 5% and another 25% at 7% and then trading the last 50%. After 5% I set a 2% trailing stop.

I think that MED and CNO are smoked for the week. They would have to move 10% up to hit the target - not likely.

KFN is a good choice - it has hit its 5% target every week for the last 13 weeks.
I also like FUQI - while it missed two weeks ago, it has hit the 5% target 25 of the last 26 weeks. Because of the weighted average approach here, a recent miss carries lots more weight than an older one, knocking FUQI out of the top list for a while. Keep an eye on it, though.
The results for this week, to be considered for entry on Monday:
Symbol performance reward risk
KFN 19.5 3.00 0.15
PSUN 38.0 2.92 0.08
SVM 38.0 2.92 0.08
Other candidates for consideration:
Symbol performance reward risk
BEXP 5.07 2.92 0.58
SRZ 4 2.92 0.73
SCSS 3.30 2.92 0.88
SBGI 3.30 2.92 0.88
SSP 18.5 2.85 0.15
BLC 18.5 2.85 0.15
GY 12.33 2.85 0.23
APWR 12.33 2.85 0.23
EXXI 9.25 2.85 0.31
FTWR 3.89 2.85 0.73
TRID 3.89 2.85 0.73
NVAX 3.89 2.85 0.73
ZLC 3.89 2.85 0.73
XTXI 3.89 2.85 0.73
GKK 1.51 2.85 1.88
BEE 1.51 2.85 1.88
