    DT1 Swing Trading Journal

    I noticed the volume spike on GPN and bought it near the close of the day. It is a risky position with a bad 1/1 win loss ratio... we'll see what happens tomorrow :-)

    I am testing a new strategy which is costing me a lot (the LEXR trade for instance). Yes hopefully I always use stops :)

    My stop was below the low of the day before my trade. I have been stoped out. But it was not a mistake, the trade was fine.

    I usually close my positions after 3 days except if the close is close to the high of the day (if I am long). Sometimes I look at the relative strengh of the stock compare to the indexes. If the index is up 2% but the stock is breaking even then I would close the position. DT1

    Well it depends. I set my stop to the low of the day or the day before I open the position. I generally close the position after 2 or 3 days except if it goes my way. DT1

    Which software is the best scanning tool?

    I am surprised nobody suggested Amibroker. It's a good scanning and backtesting software. DT1

    volume scanner

    Amibroker can do that . It costs a one time fee of 99$. Probably the best value for money. DT1

    Multiple scans with Amibroker

    Hi, I am trying to set up Amibroker for realtime scans on EOD data. I set up 2 databases. The RT 1min bar works fine but I have a problem with the EOD database. I built it with Yahoo and then switched to MyTrack. The problem is that AB does not retrieve data from MyTrack on this EOD...

    DT1 Swing Trading Journal

    Hi Mike, Glad to hear from you. Yes you can scan the market with AB. The scaning tool seems powerfull. Theoretically you can set up several scans in a single screen. Yet I haven't re-write my scans. I am in the process of building my database. This is cumbersome but hopefully tomorrow...

    Hi opw, I had a look on Investor R/T and it looks fine but 65$/month is still too expensive for me. I bought Amibroker today for 200$ (one time fee). I intend to use it with QT using IB feed for free to start. I will set this up this week and hope I can resume trading soon. Thanks for your...
