I saw a post on the Yahoo board, it seems the market is closed for Monday (President's Day)..
Can people trade on Tuesday with this scan? If Monday is a holiday?

Up early on a Saturday! Checked the long 13 week and MTG and GNVC came up. That will be my start to this method. MTG sells PMI's for mortgages. Basically a guarantee for people with less than 20% to put down on a mortgage. I plan to open 300 share positions in both, to test.

Hi! Kevin_in_GA and TRO -
I have been looking into the threads posted by you. You guys are amazing! Great job!
I could only wish to become as good as you writing this stuff.
I am a newbee here and still learning my ropes.
I have a favor to ask of you.
Can anyone of you help me with a clickable code for " REVERSE HEAD AND SHOULDERS"?
I really appreciate your help and your valuable time.
Cheers!

MTG hit its target already this week. Congrats.
GNVC will need to really pull forward soon. It is down about 5% so far (opened at 2.50, currently at 2.38).
If you invested in 300 shares of each you should be up $112.5 on MTG and down $37.5 on GNVC (net $75 on an investment of $3000, or up 2.5%). You can cash out now at a profit, or let it ride and take your chances. If you are using a 10% stop loss on GNVC, even if it gets tripped today you can't lose money this week (although you won't make much, about 1%).

I bought GNVC only at $2.47, my stop is at 2.16 so maybe stopped out today. Seems this stock might recover. The support is at 2.18, though I am hoping it jets up. I may hold until 5% is made or stopped out. With expected cancer drug trial news in a few weeks (around earnings report) I may up the profit expectation, also partnership is possible with a big pharma company.

The best day to run this filter is on Sunday night or Monday morning?
Can someone please confirm?

Yes, Rav.
This scan is to be run on the weekend and orders placed first thing Monday morning. Then manage through the week.
