There were 46 purchases and 26 short sales. The large number of short recommendations came about as a result of recent market pressures and sector rotations." "Choppy stock prices emphasized the need for precise timing of entry points. Our specially designed search criteria allow us to focus on stocks with the greatest potential for gain, over a designated period. In choosing our morning picks, we concentrated on a one to ten day window," Nia said. "Our Rambus (Nasdaq:RMBS) call is a good example of the pattern we targeted. The technical indicators suggested that a near-term gain was probable. Three days after our listing, the stock had gained 24%. Nine days later, it was up 32%."
