Re: [amibroker] Re: Random selection of stocks

Thanks Yuki!  You anticipated my question 
correctly.  
 
I do see patterns with respect to the stocks I 
follow, for the earnings, ex-dividend, and payout cycle.  However I've not 
backtested to see if they hold for more than this year.
 
Just curious, given the interest in dividends since 
the US tax law change.

  days it's quite acoincidence if I happen to be holding any of them on 
  ex-dividend dateanyway.  ^^_^^It's something that doesn't 
  factor into my trading at all.  I havesearched for some magic about 
  dividend paying stocks, but have neverfound it.  There are some 
  stocks that share many characteristics ofthe five, including dividends, 
  but that I can't make any moneytrading. Best,YukiSend
