Yes, I can see where using a 3rd indicator like MACD would keep you out of trades that a simple MAX would have you in...hence fewer trades. I was average 2.2 trades per week per stock, or about 9 trades for my 4 positions. Which NYSE stocks are you trading at the moment? It would be great to add some NY issues to our hotlist. SCH was a great stock to trade until it fizzled. Easy in, easy out...and especially easy to short. 33% per month is fantastic, especially if the drawdowns are kept to a minimum. We were doing a bit better <ggg>, but then I think I hit upon some really incredible market volatility...and there was some compounding. We also had some nasty drawdowns, and strings of failed trades in one direction, which could have been avoided with trend analysis as part of the signal. Keep us posted. Again, I am considering strongly the idea of adding a 3rd indicator, and so welcome any advice you have based on experience. Keep posting, TC
