Get the April issue of TA of Stocks and Commodities and read the article by Tharp and hopefully this will reduce the time you waste looking for some magic combination of indicators..Darts with good money management can work..

Nicholas,

SIC average 12 month investment return
Dollars traded
Yield

These are three good variables which are probably in the top 10.

Variables seem to fluctuate in correlation with future performance.
For example, in a market like we have seen over the last year or so,
very high revenue growth will get good returns. But is this a variable which will perform well over the next 5 years (or the previous 5years)
or is it just that you are getting a lot of Internet stocks which
have become bubble like winners.

Using a large number of variables (like 55, not 5) should insulate one to some extent from being too dependent on variables which may be faddish and not inherently useful long term.
