Lisa, dibbled in aapl wed using the gap theory. Forgot I was to wait for an uptick from the previous day's high and was filled on the day's high. Jen, haven't checked AAPL's action on Wednesday but your strategy is incorrect on its face Listen I have to read those rules from Scott EVERY TIME I think about it as this point because I can't remember them for some reason. but on the conservative gap one it has to open greater than yesterday high and then you set a stop equal to two ticks about the high of the first hour to hour and half or whatever you chose for the time frame remember that Scott said..that the more techie it was the longer he liked to wait (I think he also added to that statement...the more volume that it has, as well...but cant find that note to me at the moment) So if you have time...can you post about what would have happened using the above strategy. Glad you are posting the ones that don't work because of whatever reason...helps learn all of this... o: +lisa (49861 ) From: +Dwight E.
