I feel this history is a lesson that do not overlook strong fundamental signals and chase only the technicals.

Yes, wait for green and/or wait for the price to cross above yesterday's midpoint.
That will prevent the "head fakes".
HTH.

TRO
when you say wait for green, does that mean intraday green or green after the closing bell?

TRO, of course, you are right. You want to go long with a positive trend.
But i never understood the "wait for green" as a market perspective.
If you apply wait for green to the overall market performance, than yes
for goodness sake! you are d**n right.
I have a friend that trades the trend almost like that. If the index goes up,
buy whatever you can get for cheap. If the index holds or turns, throw it away
as quick as possible. No fancy filter, no stock related TA.
He only makes sure there are no earning announcements ahead for 10 days.
Funny, huh? And he makes money with it.
And the best: you profit from diversification and a large available volume.
I mean, take my filter, take out the qqqq-close above its ma(5) and see how
many stocks you can grab to go!

==============================================================================
Intraday green.
"Wait for green" is what Muddy, aka Wallman, used to do.
"Wait for green" means the stock is above it's previous close (green) for at least the first 15 minutes or so with decent volume.
If the stock is below the previous close (red) or the volume is light, you don't trade... you wait.
It is really simple but profitable.
HTH.
