hats of to Grey1 on MBI(y)
 
I'm getting -117.93 on my MACCI daily for the INDU

FYI; I closed on -103

Cheers

Steve


thanks steve, we've both in the same ball park i.e. over sold


From Grey1's swing rules/guidelines

1) if MACCI daily OS today (does it have to be Friday? its O/S tonight)


2) Looking tomorrow for to stocks off strong list that are positive on day


3) At around 8UK time tommorrow stocks are near high of the day


4) Open a postion just before market close


5) close postion on Thursday if target not hit

Your point '1' above makes reference to the INDU being oversold. Are you not interested in the MACCI of the stock itself rather than the INDU? Just a thought.

Hi steve

i think your right here, below is Greys post, I thought he was talking only of the Market, but reading it again i think your right (the stock, or may be both market and stock?)

cheers
Glen






Most of you guys are TA Trader so lets give the criteria for technical swing
SHORT
1) if MACCI daily is 100 + on Friday
2) Day 1 stock is in negative lets say on Monday
3) At around 8UK time stock is near low of the day ( on Monday again )
4) Open a postion just before market close ( on Monday )
5) close postion on Wednesday

Pos size must come from daily ATR
Stoploss must come from daily ATR ( allow more than 1 ATR due to market volatility @ open )
Target must be 3 times more than stop loss or the third day which ever hits first


You can write a code to automate this on TS and it is not a difficult task .
 
I'm trying to imput my weak and strong lists into TS2ki, and i cann't find some of the symbols in GlobalServer.

Does anyone know of a link or list showing what the symbol name is in IB = what it is in GlobalServer????????

glen
 
Hi Belfan- is your weak and strong list based on the list provided by Grey1 sometime ago ? (I can't find that particular post from G1)

Cheers!

That is more than a month old. Surely you need to update more frequently than that. (IMHO every day if you are anticipating a swing hold period of the order of 3 days or so).
 
Glen,

All you do is add a new symbol in Globalserver and specify the exchange, it really is very easy you just use the 4 letter code so for Microsoft add MSFT.

Are you trying to use the "From Dictionary" option all the time when attempting to add the symbol? If you are, you need to use "Add New" instead and fill in the correct details yourself.

hi dcraig,

i believe greys pick out these stocks based on there fundamentals, and therefore will go up/strong down/weak for the next few months

100% correct ,, I have added few stocks to my list which i post after trading hour,,

I have a target list for all these stocks based on model I use which helps me to exit in good time


Grey1 makes 90% of his earning from swing trading of fundamentally weak/ strong stocks and day trading only for those days that GOUT is not around

happy days! happy days!
