I set 1% profit targets for IART, HWAY, OSK and SBP before the open just to hopefully catch a modest gain.
09:35 - Closed out OSK at 54.59 for a gain of $196 after commissions.
09:39 - Closed out HWAY at 16.63 for a gain of $192 after commissions.
Should have also taken a trade in GTLS which popped up intraday on Friday - now down 2.5%.
Other trades still in play.

Kevin, my point was that sometimes overall market conditions are what is preventing the stocks/etf's from doing what they should do, given their fundamentals. i.e. oil related stocks looked good on friday but they are all down today due to the nature of oll futures. I suppose I just did the opposite of most ppl here. Deep background in business, understand fundamental analysis but am new to technical. I made a fortune on INO and CERS. they were not in one filter.

Damn - missed the NWL order since I was doing something else right at the close.
Closed out IART at $84.63 for a loss of $46 and SBP at $129.003 for a loss of $1. Net gain on the day was $341.

Nice Kevin - NWL looking juicy AH
BTW are you implementing any of your other filters at the moment? Pangolin-Z/W or your Z-score system filter or Pair trading?

Just goes to show you that there are two sides to every trade. I made money on the short side while others made money on the long one. Good call, man!

A slight improvement to this filter. I notice that it seems important that the second day above the upper BB(20,3) be at a volume below that of the previous day (perhaps a sign of buyers dropping off?). Also that both days above the upper BB(20,3) come at a higher volume than normal.
Also added a profit target of 1% for those who just want to catch a smaller but usually quicker gain. That is of course easily adjustable in the code.

These 3 may be good candidates tomorrow as they are over bought relative to Slow Stochastics(12,3) and all have
formed a Dogi.
HWAY below the low at 16.47 Stop 16.95
SPB below the low at 128.61 Stop 129.65
OSK below the low at 53.62 Stop 55.73
