I would like to find out what type of system is being used in the following screen shots of various trades. I know it's a breakout system, but I am trying to quantify if there is a specific system being used or whether these are a number of different systems. I would like to find as much detail on this method so that I can code a system. I have annotate the charts with the information I was able to find. Feel free to go back and look at the historical data if you have the capabilities to do so if my charts don't give you enough info. The dates of the trades are listed. These charts come from a trading system that has been profitable for 17 years. Criteria that I know are used: Round lot shares usually between 500-5000 8.5% stops 20% profit target Potentially trailing stop of some unknown amount Av. Volume > 100k Sell if close < 10 SMA for 3 days Volume probably plays a role price cycles of some sort may play a role screenshot 1: Here is NSTC Long trade which was a 20.06% winner
wow - that AOS chart is from 2006! What system is this (still open long)? http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/2550/pooper.png
