    Set ups at work is not a new on the job dating guide, but rather the short term stock trader's bread and butter. Locating shares “setting up” for short term moves is how traders make their money. Many so called set ups are based on trader legends and myths containing no real statistical evidence of their effectiveness, only hearsay and anecdotal claims keep these dubious ideas alive.

    We made the decision to actually test an assortment of short term stock set ups in a scientific and statistically valid manner.

Next, you drill deeper into this list, finding those names that have fallen back for 5 or more sessions, yet are still above the 200-day simple moving average. The next step is to take this list and further shake it out to find names that the 2 period Relative Strength Index RSI(2) is less than 1. For further infor
