Thomas, I still have long signals on BVSN & DIGL which I entered yesterday - but DIGL is especially looking weak. One thing I noticed when doing ProUtil backtesting is that with many of the stocks on the list the majority of the profits were made on the short side - ie, with BVSn and starting from 2/10/00 you had $2441 short profits but only $183 long profits. You can always buy a stock but it is not sure that you can always short the stock - broker availability. In fact, I have tried to short DIGL according to MAX with Schwab but was never successful. May I ask who your broker is. Also, I have looked into backtesting the Stochastic crossover you described earlier but that facility does not appear to be available in ProUtils. I asked the question on the ProUtils message board. Marshall
