If you don't mind me asking...
Aside from the usual crossover/under and/or divergence and/or level of the indicator...what else should I be paying attention to?
Thank you.

You are welcome.
Per above example using GNPX...probably not. I personally could not follow it (which doesn't mean others cannot) but i was intrigued by the pick a bought a small amount. Turned out OK so far but was that "trading"?
Larry Connors has published his "systems" that have been successfully back tested and yet...
Why is that? I would hazard to guess...human nature.
Once you start writing your SF script; throw it out as there are a lot of talented ppl here who are willing to help out.

Jose,
Welcome to SF! Not meaning to be flippant in my response...so, take it with a grain of salt.
1. you have to figure what a "successful system" means to you. Some traders can stomach > 20% drawdowns in order to stay in the trade for massive runs; some don't mind taking 5% gains and making > 5 trades/day.
2. like you stated, systems can be "bought" or you can develop your own by surprise.....putting the work in! SF contains precious nuggets; it just needs work to be discovered.
3. I've never "bought" systems; can't help you here. IMHO, no 2 traders are wired the same, how one trades the same indicator can be different.
4. yes, and for the same reason why you may not see a complete "successful system" posted here.
Simple example I can share - the curious case of GNPX
- easy to think a unique "system' picked it. however, it is not 100% accurate as other systems could have picked it up as well along the way.
- GNPX had multiple technical entry/exits triggered along the way but the big winner had fundamental analysis most likely keeping that person in the trade. System or something else?
- same with GME or AMC or BB...system triggers any of those...but which trader would actually trade GME without being biased about its past?
Good luck! Make sure I get a free pass when you monetize your system!

Did a revolution really happen or did the suits get the last laugh?
Short squeeze gave the hedgies margin calls. What happens when retail Joe gets the margin call?
GME trading was halted/delayed/shut down/restricted (whatever you call it) for a few hours/days (Jan 27 - Feb 1 approx). Surprise surprise...Hedgies got to borrow/raise more funds during this time.
Needless to say...while the ride up was pretty darn cool...as long as....
Time to start a RIOT! ;=P
Any good sites to find short interest stats? RIOT probably was in that jail ala GME.
