7/13/2010 7:49:18 AM kevin, great thread,I find this so informative. on the web site,tradingmarkets.com on the right side of the blue toolbar, look under free tools, then open rsi solver, this will show stock prices with rsi levels so you can set your stops. the stock scanner is also a great tool. |

7/13/2010 9:07:30 AM One question, does your filter take into account gaps (up/down?)...meaning if ABC closed at 50.00 and the filter gave you a buy signal but it gaps up to 51.00 the next day does that affect entry...stop...profit target...etc +++++++++++ Not really. All of the stock selection is based on the prior day's action. I am currently experimenting (for lack of a better word) with using the ATR(10) as the stop loss and profit stop settings. In essence, wherever the stock opens in the morning, just add 1 ATR(10) to that price for your profit target (for longs, and for shorts this becomes the stop loss). In all likelihood I will be exiting from many trades earlier than I should, since some of these setups have played out very well over a few days time span. However, locking in a decent profit (3-7%) over a short window and then moving on to the next good setup works as well. Normally, one would set their stops and targets to have a high reward/risk ratio - here it is deliberately set at 1.0. The underlying thinking here is that these trades are statistically very likely to mean-revert, and often have just closed outside of the Bollinger Bands. So while the reward/risk is set at 1.0 the likelihood of the profit target being hit is much higher than the likelihood of getting stopped out (I hope). Again, this is a work in progress. |

This is not about timing the market - I have tried that in the past with disastrous results. This is about creating above market returns with low overall volatility. While I acknowledge that if you catch the tops and bottoms on these stocks you can make a bundle, that is not what this thread is about. Please - if you want to comment on the system that is being demonstrated real-time here, you are welcome. This discussion about "just play the 3x ETFs from their tops to bottoms" stuff is best placed in a separate thread. |

7/13/2010 8:00:40 PM Update: Long Plays ID - scored 3/6 on the Connors filters, and has moved more than 2 SD from its usual relationship with the SPY. In on the open at 7.72, stop loss at 7.38 and profit target at 8.09 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). STOPPED OUT at 7.38, for a loss of 4.40% FDO - scored 2/6 on the Connors filters, and closed below the lower BB(20,2). In on the open at 36.02, stop loss at 34.77 and profit target at 37.25 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). Closed at 36.54, for a gain of 1.44% ORLY - scored 4/6 on the Connors filters. In on the open at 46.11, stop loss at 45.01 and profit target at 47.21 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). PROFIT TARGET HIT. Sold at 47.21, for a gain of 2.39% FCN - closed below the lower BB(20,2). In on the open at 32.69, stop loss at 30.88 and profit target at 34.50 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). Closed at 33.00, for a gain of 0.95% RGS - closed below the lower BB(20,2), and has moved more than 2 SD from its usual relationship with the SPY. Again a concern here is that this stock is currently below its MA(200), so no hits on the Connors filters. In on the open at 13.78, stop loss at 13.05 and profit target at 14.50 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). Closed at 14.20, for a gain of 3.05% (CLOSE TO PROFIT TARGET) Short Plays PM - Scored 6/6 on the Connors filters, closed above the upper BB(20,2), and gave a BB(16,2.5) SELL signal.

In on the open at 3.10, stop loss at 3.21 and profit target at 2.99 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). STOPPED OUT at 3.21, for a loss of 3.42% BP - Scored 5/6 on the Connors filters, closed above the upper BB(20,2), and RSI(2) is above 99. In on the open at 37.71, stop loss at 39.34 and profit target at 36.08 (set at open price +/- 1 ATR(10)). PROFIT TARGET HIT. Covered at 36.08, for a gain of 4.32% Net change for today - a gain of 0.36% Net change for this week - a gain of 1.90% I may need to use 1.5 x ATR(10) as my triggers - these stops are a little tight. |

7/14/2010 9:17:40 AM Very few good long plays are being selected by the Composite long filter. Given that I closed out 3 shorts and 2 longs yesterday, I only need 1 new short to keep dollar neutrality. Lots of good choices - DWA scored a composite 9, lots of 8's as well. Looking at the charts, my choice is TUP - Tupperware. It scored a 6/6 on the Connors short filters, closed above its BB(20,2) by a LOT, its RSI(2) is 98.67, and it has moved more than 2 SD from its usual relationship with the SPY. Also important - it closed at 43.67, and its MA(200) is at 44.485, its weekly MA(20) is at 44.55, and its weekly MA(50) is at 43.26. Will short this at the open. EDIT: In on the open at 43.59, stop loss at 45.77 and profit target at 41.49. |
