 Good morning
 All 10 of  Kevins Crockpot opened below the descending 15 minute 13 EMA.  the first to cross above the 13 EMA was NM (my first choice last night).  Put in a limit buy at 1.87, but didn't get a fill until 1.91. And there it sits as I type.

 I have pretty well re-written the filter. The change was an attempt to explore a more complex
 weighted summation.  Instead of using the 4 and 13 week periods,  I have included 1, 2, 3, 5,
 8, and 13 week periods (fibonacci numbers are magic, aren't they?).  Sorting on Reward - Risk
 minimizes failures, significantly reduces wins.  Any ideas?  Also,  anyone know of a way to sort the
 filter by last weeks sort criteria, whatever that may be?  That would make back-testing much easier.
 I welcome your suggestions.

 Graftonian, that is a great filter. I took a stab at adding MACD related data to try to determine probability of a swing trade run.  sorted it by performance.  If I have completely destroyed your great filter, my sincere apologies.  Take a look at CBL, 3 month view. Look for the MACD (3,6) crossing above the MACD EMA (9) at a decent slope, combined with the price in the chart above the yellow d1 line with the yellow line sloping downward. I have found when this happens, it is a good candidate for a swing trade.

 Great filter and hopefully you get the thumbs up from graphtonian. What is the blue Line(d1)?

 Thank you t_charp.  I believe it serves as a recent most probable support line.

 Is there a way to reverse the filter and find stocks to short? So have the scan turn up stocks that broke through the yellow line to the downside and have more loss weeks than win weeks and so on.

 i just sometimes add 'rsi(2) > 99" to any bullish filter and i find those ready for a short.

 CLVS, my pick for this week has been skating along near the 10% stoploss.  Not much hope.

 nevermind I thought I had something to help narrow down the scan but this doesnt work as well as I thought:
 
 AND close above .1
 AND volume is above 500000
 AND OBV increased past 2 days
 AND CCI(20) increased past 2 days
 AND CCI(20) crossed above -100
 AND Connors RSI(3,2,100) increased past 2 days
 AND volume is above Average Volume(30)
