  End-of-day BUY signal for RRC.  
 
 First signal in a while.  Remember that this was optimized for a portfolio of 10 stocks, so only 10% of your trading equity would be put against this.

 Hey Kevin:
 
 Read your thread last night... NICE WORK!
 
 I thought a frequency distribution of the zscores may help.
 
 Looks like you get a few trades every 100 days based on zscore alone.

  Another end-of-day BUY signal for Mattel (MAT).  
 
 RRC is currently down 2.25% from the buy at the open 4 days ago, but give these time.

  Did not see this one until you pointed it out (I had not run the filter intraday).  Signal is gone now, but I did see it for IBM around 1:30 PM.  At that time IBM was trading at 179.85.

  Thanks, Kevin. It is your filter using which I entered IBM. Thanks so much. My stop is trailing 2.5%.
 
 But, I am wondering that you say the signal is not there. The zscore is still -2.85 as I see it. Why shouldn't someone enter now? Because the rule of this thread says to enter when it is below -2, no? The following filter is giving me the score as -2.85 which is still good enough for the entry, I am guessing based on the rules.
 
 symlist(IBM) 
 SET{PRICERATIO, CLOSE / IND(SPY,CLOSE)} 
 SET{RATIOMA16, CMA(PRICERATIO,16)} 
 SET{RATIOSTD16, CSTDDEV(PRICERATIO,16)} 
 SET{DIFF16, PRICERATIO - RATIOMA16} 
 SET{ZSCORE16, DIFF16 / RATIOSTD16} 
 SET{THRESHOLD16, RATIOSTD16 * 2} 
 
 add column zscore16 
 sort on column 5 descending

  Three other criteria must be met -
 
 1.  Williams %R below -94
 2.  Close below lower BB(16,2)
 3.  Close above ma(200)
 
 Only if all four criteria are met is the stock selected for a BUY.

  Thanks, Kevin. Understood. But, at the time I entered, it did show up on the filter intraday. I will take profits today.
