Hi,
I found this screen using P/E and Price to book value
that seems to give good returns. I don't have P/E or PTB data but thought those
that do might want to try doing some backtests. There are some variations that
give better results and I wanted to include them, but I am having trouble
downloading them. it would be interesting to see what market cap range gives the
best returns. I'm not sure if Valueline Timeliness ratings were part of the
attached backtest results so your results may be different from those below. I
started an afl to give you an idea of what parameters to plugin. Looks likeI'm
going to have to use QP2 data , if I want to test this and the float analysis
afl. Maybe I'll subscribe in August.
