Gary,
The reward-risk ratio is on a per signal
basis. Each potential buy signal is ranked by its RR ratio.
RR = potential reward for this trade / potential
risk for this trade
I don't think that's the same as UPI, right
?

HB,
Sounds like UPI or similar, yes? They all seem to do about the
same.

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.

Phsst. I'm a QP2 user also. But 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. >
