No, Qcharts doesn't. I have a wish list of scans and alerts I wish it had, and that is one of them. You have to set all your own alerts, and they can only be on price, volume money flow etc.

Sojourner Smith: I try to keep it as simple as possible as I get easily confused with too many indicators. I look at the daily and weekly charts to get a sense of the major trend. Then I'll look at the 60-minute, 15 and 5 minute chartsw for a clue as to the best entry or exit point as I play both sides of the street; long and short. I watch volume and MACD and tend to sell into sudden volume and strength or cover into sudden volume and weakness. I'm a trader, and when I get my trade, I take it...though I generally buy or short at least 200 shares and sell/cover half and keep half. It seems to work for me. And of course I enter stops the moment I put on a trade.

What software do you use?
I use wall-street-city
and manually type in symbol after symbol.
I use window-on-wall-street, where I have typed in
thousands of symbols, to help me find ones that might be in play soon.

This is for swing trades. There has got to be a better way. I never see so many.

Interesting article on EXFO
business2.com 

I don't think it will be pulling back to 30 though as suggested in this article... wasn't it put on George Guilder's list this week? If so, it may go parabolic for a short time and then collapse, as most of his picks have done.

Soujourner Smith: I use Qcharts and many of my trades are culled from Jenna's, (Market Gems) watch list and Earning's Plays. Since I don't have enough capital or mental power to trade all eight or ten, my real task is choosing the one or two that I think are best. Also, my on-line firm has a "streamer" so I can watch as many stocks as I choose; it's quite helpful. I generally list 2 or 3 stocks I'm interested in buying, 2 or 3 I may short, a couple in a strong sector. And of course I have these stocks in my Qcharts list along with the NASDAQ and S&P futures.

Interesting indeed. Wish you could bottle your energy and drive......I'd buy some.<g>

I just can't keep up with the reading, even when they are on my watch list. The other problem of course is that when I've just missed something I have a tough time convincing myself to chase it. Way back when, I missed MLNM at $17 based on an excellent write up in the Economist, and then literally sat and watched it roar to $300. Never did own a single share. As Yul Brynor said in the King and I "That sure is a puzzlement"

Keep up the good work, it's awesome to behold

Cheers
Trev

thanks.
I am currently a member of Jenna's site.

I did very well last year with IPOs - very easy then.
Got crunched the last 3 months trying some things new
for me.
Trying to rebuild now.

....A team of academic finance researchers recently took a fresh
look at the so-called ``U-shaped'' pattern of daily stock market
trading, the high volume at both ends with a dip in the middle.


couple that with a study that has the same u shape for the high and low of the day conducted by george angell , profitable daytrading with precision, copyright 1997

INSP....

one of many beaten downs...

banging its head against 10 for the past couple weeks..will report on the 29th after the bell.

we've got a higher low at 7 3/16, maybe a retest of that level and bounce if we see market weakness????.

Will the dips be bought for a charge to and through compx 3000?????.....
