Hi bazan, Great to know you're doing well and working on the scans. QP I assume - Cooper scans are good setups to code and fairly clear to look for. I'm increasingly of the opinion that the KISS principle is best - too many bells and whistles (a la the 56 approach) and your signal gets lost in the noise. I've a backtest scan I can PM you or send as an importable scan if you've still got the same qwestinternet.net email. I'm still on nwlink if you've kept my email and would enjoy seeing some of your scan coding. If you're using the Cooper scans from Brooke's site without alteration, you might want to double check a few - I think the lizard long had an error using tne Max() function instead of the Min() function. The short scan would be just the reverse, but I don't recall how Brooke had it. I've coded my own Cooper set ups. And I'm working on some other swing trade scans, but will send you the longer term trenders scan if you wish. My present swing strategies look for trending or trading range stocks and then try to work the pull back or breakout. Will be in and out this w/e with son's B-day parties, but will check email and PMs. Glad you're still around to trade, many aren't I fear. Peace and Justice --- Patrick
