Hey guys - I'm finishing up the remodeling of the home office,and mission control has been out of commission. John, great job with GS, I couldn't believe that sucker was at $130 yesterday!
For your swing-trading stocks - what is your typical holding period? I know that's tough to answer, just wondering how you typically set those stops and what kind of targets you set...

I suspect GS will rise to test the resistance at either the 5 or 15 HR.MA, confirm it as resistance and continue to drop.

As soon as you sell FAZ should you not buy FAS?
I was thinking if set your chart to 15 or 30 min bars and buy when it turns green, use what ever stop you want, but as soon as you sell buy the other.

Another gap display, in the Gap column (gp%) if it is negitive it is a gap up.

now it someone had the time which i dont right now to calculate the stats on FAS and FAZ gaps, not just fill % I have that.
but a more anylitcal study, if it gaps more than 3% how many times does is fill, if it is above yesterdays low on a gap down % it will fill. all that kind of stuff could give you a real edge....if you keep punching in dates you see that the gap down always pay something at least 1% and most of the time have a good gain.......... all that is Open to high of day not Open to yeserdays close........so if you gap down 15% you may still make 3% from the open and most of the time it heads down more at the open befor going back up........how nice would it be to know that 99% it will make some thing above to open.
I think dumping the data into a spread sheet would be much simpler than building a filter,........ I think Yahoo gives out free data..... anyone check this out before?
