Holy Grail indeed!<g> Here's what I've come up after testing another 30 charts today. But with a shorter trading time (5dy to 6-8wk) w/ yields of about 9-14%: (Mov(C,3,E)-Mov(C,9,E))-(Mov((Mov(C,3,E)-Mov(C,9,E)),28,E))>0 AND Fml( "SRSI14") >30 AND Fml( "Dahl Primary Trend" ) >0 AND OBV()>40 AND MACD() > Mov( MACD(), 5, W) The same formula but w. 5,13,40 gave 28-36% returns, but w/ holding time anywhere from a wk., to 6mos. Much more profitable w/ the shorter term/lower %, and more trades. I have'nt learned much about the ones you mentioned, but I can load them and take a look. It's so easy to do. Chris Oh, how does one paste an HTML of a chart here to go over w/ everyone?

Chan & all other tech mavens looking for new ideas..... I've been working on variations of my Weighted Stochastics approach and will toss this out for your consideration. Divide the Wtd Stoc into Short Term and Long Term components: LT= .50stoc89.21+.30stoc55.13+.20stoc34.8 ST= .50stoc34.8+.30stoc21.5+.20stoc8.3 Compute for Today and Yesterday .Gives 4 groups: ++ LT and ST both higher today (uptrend) +- LT higher and ST lower -+ LT lower and ST higher -- LT and ST both lower today BUY long when stock moves up to ++. SELL when ++ goes to +- or-+ Do NOT buy if LT is under 10. Do NOT sell if LT over 90. Let me know if you like the way it works for you. Jack Landis
