Phsst, no you did not miss it because I never
posted it.
My original one is based on a really simple
reward/risk ratio. The higher the ratio, the better.
I'm also going to check out the suggestion of using
system's past performance on the stock. That's how I regularly select my
basket, but I never thought of using it to rank. This would be akin to
what Chuck & other have been saying all along. I.e. don't select a
basket, let the ranking sort through all stocks and pick the good
ones.

all those QP2GetExtraData variables are not updated daily, so I don't
think theywould be useful for a short-term trading system like I was
talkingabout. Using PositionScore over a modest time period, you'd get
thesame 4 stocks all the time, wouldn't you, or at least until they
getupdated. Perhaps QRS gets updated weekly, so maybe that wouldn't be
asbad, but I think I'd like something that is more reflective of
thetrade system duration, in other words, something that I can
updatedaily at EOD. > >
