set{Xgappedpercent, ((Xgapped / close 1 day ago)*100)}
I don't know what's wrong with this syntax, but this line makes the filter return 0 matches.
============================================
You can only have 1 operator per set statement.

Ah, thanks TRO. Do you find that Nasdaq has the best gappers?

I just like how NASDAQ stocks trade.
NYSE is too slow on the confirmations unless you trade them on an ECN.

by the way Rumpled - what about spreads? trading e.g. BIDU and AAPL is quite a difference . so what do you use for e.g. the buyzone LONG entry - the latest "ask" or "last"??

The buyzone stays the same all day long.
Open + .20
- LONG ZONE
Open + .10
Open
Open - .10
- SHORT ZONE
Open - .20
Use limit orders.
Forget the spread.
If you don't see how this works, DON'T TRADE IT! I don't say this to be rude but this is so simple either you see it or you don't. NO AMOUNT OF EXPLANATION is going to change that.
Please note that NO INDICATORS were harmed in making this chart...LOL!

A buddy alerted me to SNDK.
Gapped DOWN, went into LONG ZONE and then TANKED!!
Notice how using the BUYZONE keeps you on the right side of the trade.
EVERY BIG MOVE MUST PASS THROUGH THE BUY ZONE.

Did you see DD today? It has filled the gap 100% of the time (when the gap has been 1% or greater) or 9 for 9. I have to go to jury duty so I didn't trade today unfortunately. Things are looking choppy anyway. It seems like Filling the Gap works fairly well during choppy markets, would you agree TRO? My experience is limited to the last several months.
