heres the golden goose formula....

MA's + Volatility + News Event + High Volume = Golden Egg/Price Slippage


now how many people have the discipline to trade with only the above filters. Maybe these days are only 10-15% of all trading days.

formula at work... would rather have it happen during a high volume day like the start of the week.
