12/5/2014 9:25:12 AM I am not trading this, just mucking around at this point. Buy equal $ amounts of the top three listed stocks at the close and sell next day at the open. Average daily return YTD is 6.6% before slippage and commission. Just a coincidence, I presume, but just trading the top listed stock also generated an average daily return YTD of 6.6%. Challenge with using SF is the time delay, but there are lots of trading platforms and online sources that give real time daily top gainers and then you could scan for the price and volume criteria. If you want to backtest this day-to-day: |

1/8/2015 3:14:58 PM One can add for the trends and ema(50) is above ema(50) one day ago or and ema(50) is below ema(50) one day ago Draw ema(13) Draw ema(20) I myself use higher ADR(30) and lower volume of say 200000 to find stocks like MDGN The ema(13) ema(20) ema(50) shows a start of a new uptrend.  |
