12/20/2020 6:28:46 PM If price is above EMA(17) today or yesterday, does it not also follow that it is above the 5% below EMA(17) mark? Meaning that your first statement is always satisfied because of the second statement. |

12/18/2020 10:53:00 AM graftonian included the Keltner bands going up because one of your requirements was "One where the stock is on a upward trend for say 7 to 14 days". By removing that line, you're getting all stock regardless of their general trend. I added a line at the end to only give you tickers that are trending up, though it may be for a lot longer than 14 days. Otherwise, the filter looks like it's doing what you want it to. |

12/16/2020 5:23:31 PM Hi mystockid! Have you tried writing a filter for any of the different parts? If so, go ahead and post it so I can help you flesh it out. Feed a man a fish, teach him to fish, and all that. |
| General Discussion · Is there a way to successfully predict which stocks will have "juice" going forward? | |
| xarlor msg #154959 |
12/15/2020 8:48:34 AM Here is a custom volatility filter I wrote in the past. It compares historical volatility to itself over the last year. This is sorted by those tickers experiencing the highest volatility when comparing to its own baseline over the last year. I can't say this will work to find your juicy stocks. Perhaps combine it with your other filters and see if it yields good results. |

12/14/2020 11:08:06 AM @styliten I am in the I.T. field, though not a programmer. I dabble in coding, though, and am always frustrated by not having the ability of some basic functions on SF, like loops, nested IFs, variable recall of days, and more. Makes for some inventive solutions at times. I've looked into DMA, tried making some filters, but none of them ever panned out. The problem I have with DMA is it's based off a lagging indicator already. When trying to use positive DMA, you're making it lag even further. When using negative DMA, you're attempting to predict an average off data that is not even current, in other words, data that is already lagging behind. Add in that the value changes day-to-day as the new MA is known and it's just not reliable at all. But as I often preach, if you find something that works for you and is profitable for you, then keep using it! It's not the filter, it's how you trade. |

12/11/2020 10:43:10 AM This is the best approach I could think of, styliten. A bit of explanation is in order. This attempts to give you a visual of how many times, within the last 3 days, day change was -2.5% or worse. 1of3downdays means only 1 day of the last 3 days was the day change -2.5% or worse. 2of3downdays means 2 of the last 3 days the day change was -2.5% or worse. 3of3downdays means all 3 of the last 3 days the day change was -2.5% or worse. Looking at all 3 variables above, the combined visual pattern you're looking for is a "V". From there, you can browse to the right and see how many consecutive -2.5% down-days happened. A "U" pattern indicates more than 3 consecutive down-days. Of note, your examples fail the -2.5% criteria. YETI's first 2 downdays are -1.73% and -2.38% while the stand-alone downday was -2.61. DY's first 4 downdays are -3.86%, -2.44%, -1.41%, and -0.02% while the stand-alone downday was -1.20%. My definition of day change uses the day's open and the day's close. If you want it to be yesterday's close to today's close, replace the pdiff1 with the commented out one. Using that method still doesn't satisfy the criteria for YETI and DY, however. Lastly, I included only optionable stocks to reduce the universe to "serious" stocks only. YMMV. |
