Thanks John, for the very definitive work.

I've been toying with a moving average crossover for signals,
but with a little twist. This will not get you in at the very bottom/top but it is sometimes worthwhile to give up a little
to buy a little insurance that you're on the right track.

Try the following:

Put a 3 day EMA and a 5 day EMA on the stock. Then check for the
crossover of the 3 and the 5. THEN, wait for two consecutive closes
above/below the 3 day EMA. This last part is the KEY. The first
of the two consecutive closes can be on the same day as the
crossover.

I know it's very simple....but sometimes the simplest work best.

Give it a try.

Claud
