Are you sure it's the scanner and not the way you trade??? you should give us an example of a stock you trade from your scan.

ok i used muddy's filter
set{x,count(volume above volume 1 day ago,1)*2}
set{y,count(volume above average volume(90),3)}
set{z,x+y}
and z is above 1.1
and close has been decreasing over the last 3 days
and low is below lower bollinger band(20)
and count(close above open,3) is below 2.1
and rsi(2) is below 1
and close is between 1 and 10
and average volume(90) is above 100000
i buy when the stock goes green and hold
i usually sell the stock if it falls below 2%
this strategy has not been working too well
but this scan is not very consistent
any ideas to make me a better swing trader?

Someone posted this filter recently on SF, I think this is a very good Swing Filter. Buy stocks bouncing off the BB29 or moving through from below BB29 and setting you stop when a stock open and close below BB29, very simple yet effective. Paper trade first before taking it live....important *** trade with the trend.
