I have been working with stockfetcher for about 6 months so I am not quite a newbie. I love the concept.

But I cannot reliably make filters, watch lists and filters to work as it looks like they should. Is there a manual on how to do this?

I want to set up a watch list with about 100 stocks. I want to have the capability to create filters and run backtests to optimize the filters. Seems simple but I can't break the code. I have instances where it works well then sometimes it doesn't.

I am a PhD in Statistics. I started in computing in 1958. I have been a system engineer during most of my career. I am still working and contributing at 78 years old. But I am bamboozled by Stock Fetcher.

Can I get some help?

To me there is no one filter that is the Holy Grail that works great all the time.

One of my filters is below:
Show stocks where the MACD Histogram(12,26,9) is increasing the last 2 days below 0
and close is between 2 and 20
and Slow Stochastics Fast %K(10) crossed above 20
show stocks where the PVO(10,100) has been increasing last 7 days
I did a back test 7-6-10 to 8-9-10 and the results were:
7/6/2010 to 8/9/2010 85% wins 15% loss 5.45:1 win/loss ration 2.83 risk/reward 192.26%ROI
another backtest
2/12/2010 to 4/26/2010 69%wins 29%loss 2.38:1 win / loss ratio 5.04risk/reward 232.04% ROI
So each filter does different when the Bulls are making a semi-run up.
To me when the market goes south play the bear's
