8/5/2010 2:46:58 PM I've been using Persons Pivots for awhile now and find that it works better for me than anyother method I've used. My problem is finding stocks when the daily signal generated occurs when the weekly and monthly signals are pointing the same way as the daily. I occassionally find set ups that match the above criteria, but I'm having to go through long lists of stocks (sometimes 100's) to find them. I trade on Think or Swim and can't set up a scan there that can produce these signals. I have set up some moving average scans on Stock Fetcher, that sometimes work but have long periods of no signal for John Persons Pivot points. I'm not good at using SF's examples to set up a scan that will deliver the results I want so I decided to ask for help. If any one here has successfully developed a scan that produces a reasonable number of signals for the Persons method I would appreciate you giving me a reply. Thanks in advance for your advice. |

8/5/2010 8:42:26 PM okrafarmboy, Are you using Person's Pivots or Person Pivot Studies (abbreviated PPS on thinkorswim)? If you are using PPS, there are some candlesticks involved. I purchased his Candles Stick & Pivot Points (or a title something like that) long enough ago that I don't recall exactly how he used the candlesticks and I believe he said it was proprietary. The formula for the pivot crossovers seemed simple enough to duplicate but the candlesticks seemed difficult, especially if you don't know which ones to use. I lost interest in his work for exactly the same problem you have. You have to screen every stock one by one and that just doesn't make sense for most people. His latest video involves the COT report and the system seems interesting. He is using his PPS after he has decided what to trade using seasonality and the COT report 1st. Then he uses the PPS for timing his entry. This is a long way of saying that that he doesn't use pivot Points or PPS as a screener. If he doesn't use his own indicators to screen for candidates, that may be telling us something. I agree with you that his signals look good. Bill |

10/14/2010 7:48:02 PM Bill, I'm sorry that I wasn't aware of your reply. It sounds like we are having a similar experience. From using Person's Pivots and buy signals, it seems to me that what is needed is a Stock Fetcher formula that can tell you when a candlestick's closing price is above the average high of the past four (I think) candlesticks or below the average low of the past four candlesticks. Then you should get either a list of stocks that could be generating or be close to generating a signal when you analyze their charts on your trading platform. The SF guys have helped me some; however, so far no filter I've used here has been able to provide a list of stocks that are close to generating signals. I still like Person's stuff better than anything else I've found even if I have to go through long lists of stocks. I wish I had found it first along with Nison's candlestick training. Would have saved me quite a lot. |

10/15/2010 12:11:58 PM okra, You might try searching the Forum for Pivot Point posts. Here is one that was posted a while back. I don't remember the name of the author, could be four. Four produces a lot of good stuff. You can modify this to your needs. close > cma(pp 1 day ago,5) close > open low > cma(pp 1 day ago,5) high 1 day ago < cma(pp 1 day ago,5) close between 1 and 20 avgvol(30) > 800000 I suggest you take a look at PPS on TOS. It will give you an idea of what his signals look like so you can compare them to the screen you want here at SF. I signed up for a 3 session webinar by Person. It uses the seasonality concept I mentioned in the previous post. I usually don't like paying for these sessions but its only $99 and I have seen some of his free sessions and know he presents valid concepts. When he does the Q&A part, I will ask if there is a screener for Pivot Points and PPS. I think he has some add on software available but its not for a platform I use. Bill |
