You're welcome, Mark.
Where in AZ? Perhaps we can go see a Dbacks game.

Send an email to me (therumpledone gmail) so we can set up a Dbacks game.
I may go to see Atlanta play next week.

Hey Kindtrader 56.
Pretty much the same boat.....
reduced to part time 4 years ago, released completely jan this year.
TRO's posts really helped me find a method that suited my personality and for that I will be forever greatful.
Maybe I will have to buy a winter place in Arizona!
Enjoy the game boys!

I've been very fortunate in that I had a nice run for over 20 years. Never made a ton of money but had very steady and challenging work. Married a wonderful women, raised a family and put we have the kids college tuition paid for. All in all, I have been very blessed.
Trading has been a very challenging endeavor. I have not lost very much nor made very much for the last couple years. I continue to work at it and really enjoy TRO's thought process and openness.
Feel free to send me an email anytime if you would like to compare notes.
Take care,
Mark

Hi TRO,
Thanks for sharing your method. Looks very logical and promising.
Would you mind sharing your results of this one so to make us all more confident on using it.
I paper traded DECK (one of the MTC stock) today but seem not to be hitting the target of the 1st trade i.e. fading the gap. I was using 0.1-open and taget exit was 0.3 cents. Should my target be 0.3 or yesterday close whichever is earlier?
Then one negative (long at buy zone i.e. open + 0.1. Got stopped at open + 0.1) and one positive (long at buy zone).
When to stop trading? or should I keep going until make money for the day.
Any advice on how to use this method or am I missing the point.

Read the thread (again) if you don't understand. The only results that matter to you are YOURS!
Either you make this work for you or you don't. It is all up to you.
Are you sure DECK is a cow?

I will read it again but the thread was also a little confusing so thought to ask the guru himself.
I used the following filter to generate the Cows:
/* TRO MTC CHECKER */
set{ hiop, high - open }
set{ up10, count( hiop > 0.09, 100 ) }
set{ up50, count( hiop > 0.49, 100 ) }
set{ pct1, up50 / up10 }
set{winpct, 100 * pct1 }
add column up10
add column up50
add column winpct
up50 above 79
average volume(90) above 1000000
sort column 7 descending

I change the volume selection criteria to my latest scan. Rather than looking at the average volume, I look at the minimum volume over the last 100 days. I noticed that a couple of volume spikes can really distort the average.
