  My plan so far is to set LMT orders intraday for rsi>=75, if the stock closes eod between a rsi of 70 and 75 I would close the position at the open of the next trading day.

 Plan B produces 4 selections : 
 
 CDNS +0.42% 
 TEX +2.58% 
 AKRX +1.20% 
 HPY +3.33% 
 
 Total +7.53% 
 +++++++ 
 
 Uh, not quite ... you'd want the AVERAGE of those four trades (+1.88%) rather than the sum.
 
 ====================================
 no you add up your gain.  thats what you made. 
 the average would be that of the 4 trades.

  Bill - sorry for the delay, I hadn't been here for a few days & I only just discovered how to turn on email alerts.
 
 There's a great deal of information on Ric's site and several ways to use it. I am taking the TSM Weekly pics - generated for Monday morning pre-open - to run this screen as I have described above. I have been corresponding with Ric about this and as of this week he is recording his results on the subscriber pages. Btw, I posted the link to his RSI(2) approach above.
 
 Now, if I could work out how to post an image here, I'd do so... 
 
 However, I am not trading his regular TSM Daily selections, nor his Naked Puts (although I really like this approach), at least not yet.

  I would now like to backtest an exit range of "Exit on next day Open when RSI(2) >x on today's Close", testing from 65 to 90 in steps of 5. My question is how exactly do I add the following as exit code (using 70 in this example)
 
 RSI(2) crossed above 70
 
 into the code, please ?

  So here are the last week's results using RSI(2) <5 for 2 days, exit @ RSI(2) >70. Ric suggests taking off half positon @ +$1

  It's just a screenshot of an Excel list... I'm not quite sure what your question is ?

  Thats a nice tool to calculated exits based on desired rsi levels.

  This trading approach sounds similar to PowerRatings by Tradingmarkets.com (Larry Connors), has any one tried PowerRatings, or has any one written a filter that simulates PowerRatings?

  Good morning - would someone please confirm my syntax is correct ?
 
 I want to add a further filter for  when there are several open trades and quite a few new selections : I want RSI(2) <5 for three instead of two days. Is this it (it reduces today's picks from 15 to 10*) :
 
 
 
  	    
 
 * TSM RSI(2) picks have an additonal requirement that they must have pulled back to obvious Support, so only 7 picks for today, about half of which meet the RSI(2)<5 for 3 datys criteria. However, making selections via SF code is 100% mechancial.
