My attempt at a filter based on price and volume. I have used OBV(30) and compared it to Shares Outstanding. The buy signal is a new 55 day high and the sell signal is a new 13 day low. This is intended to be a long term filter. I made .75 the cut off point for "turn" but that can be changed easily. I then go to Yahoo to check out Float. Four stocks have extremely high %short. They are LEND @ 73%, DNDN @ 50%, FED @ 57% and OVTI @ 38%. A lot in the 20%'s. Anyway I am still tweaking this effort.

55mult is how many new 55 day highs have occurred in the last 60 days and 55/2day is a new 55 day high today. I have only used price and volume to find stocks and use MACD and ADX as guides. I think this is about as close as I can come to float turn until SF makes Float available.

Added an ATR(20) breakout to the filter. When the close today is .80 greater than the close yesterday it signals a possible buy. Look at stocks where there is an ATR(20) breakout right after a 13 day low is hit. A 13 day low is a signal to exit in this filter. Very interesting. Anyway I think this gives another confirmation to a buy signal. I added moving averages of 4 day, 9 day, and 18 day. A buy signal would also have the 4 and 9 day moving averages above the 18.

Added lines for "turn" and "risk%". Also added Money Management. Bought FSLR based on yesterday's scan. Bought the amount recom'd by the scan. Still tweaking.

Added risk20, risk60 and risk180. To find a new trend look for risk20 to be below risk60 and risk180, sometimes only below risk60 does it. For a trend already in motion look for turnval to cross above riskval above 75. At least it looks that way to me. See what you think. I keep getting more ideas and keep tweaking.

Still tweaking. Look at what happens when turnval is at 100 and riskval is at 0.
I am looking at PWEI and CHRD. Added ADVal as confirmation.

This is very interesting.

Thanks for sharing your efforts - there are some rather clever ideas embedded in this filter (some above my head ;-). I'm going to check the results the next couple of weeks; if some lightning strikes I'll be sure to share as well.

Bought CHRD at the filter price and quantity. 73 shares @ 15.36. FSLR doing fine. Bought SPWR 13 shares @ 78.86. last week. All for now.

"Bought SPWR 13 shares @ 78.86"

How much do you realistically expect to make from 13 shares? I wouldn't exactly call this a proper money management, however correct it may be in theory. If you take commission into the equation, you'd know that you're in a sinking boat.
