Jan, this sounds like a lot of work! I bet the work could be well worth it. There is so little published results of different approaches out there. Following sectors sounds easy enough. Could you somehow how automate a spreadsheet to let you know if a stop is hit or if an RS signal changes? Actually, I could follow RS easy enough once I had the initial data. An excel spreadsheet can be set up with high flags and low flags for RS. AOL has a portfolio feature that tracks one hundred stocks per portfolio. I could dump this into a spreadsheet daily and the rs changes will be flagged. This would show a reversal from X's to O's, or O's to X's, or tell me to add an X or an O to the current column, but couldn't do anything about calling an RS buy or RS sell signal. That's OK if all we care about is the column its in. I'm fine with that. As we engineers say - write a Spec! If you can; 1) easily flag sell and/or buy signals, 2) scan for new prospects periodically, 3) give me the initial RS data on new prospects (count and column), and 4) keep the books - I'll keep you informed of any RS or VL changes. Don't know what to call it now. Hope we can call it reliable when it's done. Duke
