New filter results:

11-12: 221%
10-11: 79%
9-10: 193%
8-9: 96%
7-8: 92%
6-7: 42%
5-6: 60%
4-5: 183%
3-4: 132%
2-3: 424%

The filter was a little better before you added the last two lines. However, this most recent year is phenomenal at 221%. Very consistent.

HOWEVER; if you stick your neck out a bit more and change the money management so that you are only holding 3 positions at a time you get these results:

11-12: 502%
10-11: 71%
9-10: 308%
8-9: 384%
7-8: 152%
6-7: 89%
5-6: 54%
4-5: 345%
3-4: 245%
2-3: 1012%

Absolutely ridiculous numbers - but you have to put a third of your money into each stock.

levamit,
Thanks for the new system! I ran it through a bunch of tests, and I couldn't get it to do so well using your exits. I tried some different exits, and the best success I had was using this exit:

RSI(2) > 55 or
hold for 7 days
(no profit stop)

Also, I had better results using the following money management:

Max trades/day - 2
Max open positions - 3
Max selected stocks - 2


So far the best system of yours I have found is this filter:

Stocks are not OTCBB
Bollinger Width Oscillator(5,2) below -50 in last day
Lower Acceleration Band(5) dropped more than 3.5 Percent
Lower Keltner Band(5)dropped more than 3 percent
Day Position(0.5,1)below day position 2 days ago
do not draw day position (-1.00,5)
do not draw day position
average Volume(4) > 120000
close > 1.20
IMI(4) below 9


with this exit:

RSI(2) > 55 or
hold 7 days

with this money mangement:

Max trades/day - 2
Max open positions - 3
Max selected stocks - 2


Thanks again for your contributions!

Best,

TB

Tom, how are you sorting the above resulting stocks, by volume descending or IMI(4) ascending?

Leavamit,

Nice filter. I tweaked it a bit to include liquidity criteria over 3 time periods. Min $/day set at $5M for each period. There are fewer hits but returns are still very good.

Hello Teo,

The timing to jump in to the market will be always a problem.
All you need is to put some orders and to work like machine without any emotions,
The system is winning most of times and sometimes you will be on the up side and sometimes on down side.
Nobody can tell you what going to be on the next day.
But if you have a winning strategy and you working side by side with your plan you can find that even in bad days most of times you make money.
Work with you plan and your strategy and stick to it!! to make money.

Regards,
LA

Thank you very much LA.
I try to understand more about the methodology rather than the filter iself.
This is a very good filter with very good result in back test.
- it is a surprise for me to see the result of 2 years about > 400% but a period is -50%.
in real trading if you lost 50% of you fund, it is hard to continue I guess.
- most of the big winner is penny stock of big company that suffered from unreasonable drop like: LVS, AIG..
which is Buffer investing way: buy big company with good balance sheet but dropped like BP.
- the good think about this filter is most of the big drop somehow will get recovered within 2-3 days that explains why we have a lot of 2-10% win.
I tried this with 7% stoploss, 2 day holding and it gives good result less risk. even with 2% stoploss it still profitable.
This makes me feel like fishing, you may not get any fish for a few days, but you will get small fish every day, and some day you get big one :)
