Just ran the screen after lunch - one stock was identified - AAP (Advanced Auto Parts).

Looks interesting - it had gone far below the lower BB, but has since rebounded (a good sign,in that it probably will not close near its low).

I also looked a little more closely at the 18 stocks that have been identified since I started (those listed on the first post, and CACC, AFL and ITUB which I passed on). In 12 of 18 cases, buying at the END OF THE DAY IT CLOSES BELOW THE LOWER BOLLINGER BAND WAS MORE PROFITABLE.

A 2 out of 3 chance it will be worth more is worth considering.

I guess I'll decide at 3:55 PM today!

UPDATE: I noticed that this has hit the lower BB multiple times over the past year, but had only one instance where it closed above the upper band (on a huge gap up/high volume day that has yet to be repeated). makes me a little more cautious. Also, volume is HEAVY - 6 times normal. May be something wrong here.

UNFI comes up as well. Looks good - has done the lower to upper band route three times in the past year, all profitably. Also just got upgraded a few days ago, which seemed to trigger a sharp sell-off. ??

I'll keep this one on the radar - may buy in at the end of the day.

Hey Kevin.

Looks like they beat the EPS but missed on revenue

United Natural Foods reports Q4 EPS 36c vs. consensus of 35c
Reports Q4 revenue $853.5M vs. consensus of $873.28M. This was back on the 9th not sure if this is already factored in. Otherwise looks good.

In on UNFI at $24.36. There is no question it will close below the lower BB today, and it had started moving up from its low, so I crossed my fingers and bought in.

Will add it to the portfolio and update tonight.

Thanks, xxcheck! I saw that, but still am not sure why the stock is selling off.

I hate buying on Friday afternoons ... but I did it anyway.

AAP:
Looking at the 1 year weekly chart it's interesting to note that there was a volume surge on earnings on 2/17/09 with a high of $37.97ish.

Because of the volume video that you posted (fantastic, thanks) I drew a horizontal line from the 2/17 high to todays low. It almost matches the low of $38.08. If the volume video is correct this could become a significant support line, be interesting to see.

No need, I used one from about two weeks ago as part of the 458 stocks on the 3 watchlists. Most likely that all of this week's stock are in there already.

As to using 1.5 SD instead of 2.5 SD, I will post a comparison of the two systems in a few minutes from the optimization program I have been using. It will compare all 458 stocks including transaction costs over the last year for both systems.
