could you post the filter with rsi weekly below 10 and x% above 0.15? thanks

Hey M4M, thanks for offering to pass on your hard-won knowledge. I've read most of your posts on this board and the yahoo bac message board as well. I opened accounts this week at optionshouse and thinkorswim and was planning on learning to trade options in the upcoming weeks, so your decision to help out those of us who want to learn is very fortuitous.

Was planning on working with RSI(2) in multiple time frames and using linear regression lines, per your posts on the yahoo bac board. Definitely interested in any further insights you have to offer.

I would rather have the following as selection criteria:

1. close is above 1
2. close is below close 1 day ago
3. average volume(50) is above 100000

Fetcher[

/* daily rsi(2) */
set{A, rsi(2)}
add column A

/* ----weekly rsi(2)------ */
set{weekly-A,weekly rsi(2)}
add column weekly-A

/* --------x%--the profit indicator------ */
set{x%, weekly atr(8)/weekly ma(8)}
add column x%

/* ------daily volume spike-- */
set{v%, volume/average volume(100)}
add column v%

/* ---weekly volume spike----- */
set{wv,average volume(5)/average volume(100)}
add column wv

/* --------% above 50 day low to find recent moving stocks-- */
set{low1,close - low 50 day low}
set{low2, low1 / low 50day low}
set{%above50daylow, low2 * 100}
add column %above50daylow

close is below close 1 day ago
close is above 1
and average volume(50) is above 100000
x% is above 0.15
weekly RSI(2) is below 10

and draw weekly-a
and draw x%
and sort on column 6 ascending
display is weekly
]



Using these criteria I get 21 hits. If you add "stock is optionable" it drops to 6.

Kevin,
Trying to backtest your modification. What are you using for entry and exit points on this screen?
TIA

Beats me.

I haven't even figured out how to select from this one yet - it is derived from M4M's strategy, but I think there is still some interpretation that needs to be done before pulling any triggers.

I did look backwards a few times using the offset, and if you went back before 3/9, it doesn't appear to produce a lot of explosive hits. My concern is that we are nrear or at the top of the markets for now, and that an all-long strategy might be risky.

What I do like is that this screen picks stocks that may have bottomed.

Is it possible to add your entry triggers on the filter? For example, on Kevin's modifcation in this thread, if entry had to wait for a close above the close on the day of signal, and this close above the close on signal day had to occur within 3 trading days of the signal. I tried to accomplish this in backtesting but didn't have any success. Can it be done within the filter?

offset is X

Dump those stock results into a new WL, then run your confirmation signal scan on them

Close is above close X days ago

My understanding of this filter is that you wait to run it when there's a major market bottom to find optimal candidates for riding the rebound, either by going long or buying calls.

From what I understand, the stocks with the higher %x values are those that have had the price volatility [as measured by weekly atr(8)/weekly ma(8) ] during the preceeding 8 weeks and therefore are potentially most likely to have the largest bounce when the market turns.

I like Kevin's idea, run them against your watch list, to find identify stocks you are familiar with and comfortable trading. The financials seem to work well for M4M.

What's left to determine is what criteria to use to identify a major market bottom. Perhaps when a certain percentage of individual stocks (maybe greater than 90%) show weekly RSI(2) below 10 as well as the major indices showing weekly RSI(2) below 10 and then RSI starts to recovery, that's a major bottom.
