    Looks pretty good. Keep up the good work!

    You might want to make sure the daily volume is up to snuff in your scans. I know you are only doing 50 shares, but lower volume in a stock generally translates into bigger spreads, which would mean greater slippage for you perhaps. Not sure if you are selling with a market order or limit order??

    Best of luck to you,

    I am mostly using markets on exit, and all limits on entries. I do get alot of slipage on exits (market), but my entries are always very good. I get positive slip on entries. It kind of evens out.

    I am currently working on a new exit strat with TI and Assent. It should do great with the exit slippage.

    My stocks are mixed in volume. some high some low. You are correct in greater spreads, but nothing I can do based on the strat.

    This system is not stock specific, but event driven. A whole new way to look at it.

    thanks for the comments.
