9/16/2007 7:57:34 PM TRO: Thanks again. I'm running the filter you indicated as "/* 80% or greater selection criteria */" Another question, please. Respectfully, you said: "You run the filter when the market is CLOSED. So if you ran it today (Saturday) then you pick stocks to buy at Monday's close.” My question is this: Your statement means to only BUY stocks at Monday’s close when Monday’s Open is actually below Friday’s Close. Is this correct? Steve |

9/23/2007 8:25:28 PM TRO - This is an excellent filter! Thanks for sharing as usual. I am using the filter you posted (page 8) that buys on the close and sells on the open. I dont suppose you have tradestation code for this filter (or something like it) do you?? Thanks! |

" You buy stocks AT THE OPEN!! So if a stock gaps down at the open, you buy when it shows that it is holding green ( the price is NOT dropping anymore). |

Don't you just love statistics? |

10/18/2007 2:04:41 PM It looks like this filter counts minor gaps up and down. I'm about to modify it to ignore gaps up or down less than 2% to filter out some of the noise. IMO, if a stock gaps down 1% and happens to fill, that is not very significant. If you have a version of your filter that already does this TRO let me know. I majored in Computer Science but prefer not to code unless necessary. |

10/18/2007 2:36:32 PM Is there any sort of debug mode on the stockfetcher compiler? set{Xgappedpercent, ((Xgapped / close 1 day ago)*100)} I don't know what's wrong with this syntax, but this line makes the filter return 0 matches. Here is my little mod though to only count stocks that gapped down or up more than 2 percent: set{Xgappedpercent, Xgapped / close 1 day ago} set{Xgapup, count(Xgappedpercent > .02, 1)} set{Xgapdn, count(Xgappedpercent < -.02, 1)} Rick |
