Phsst,
Actually, I've been doing some more extensive
testing and it seems that the RR ratio is holding up better than the other
ranking mechanisms that were posted.
So, I might just stick with what I've been using
all along !
I guess the ranking mechanism is really dependent
on the "personality" of your trading system. The RR ratio fits really well
with the system I'm using.

That's how I regularly select mybasket, but I never thought of using it to
rank. This would be akinto what Chuck & other have been saying
all along. I.e. don't select abasket, let the ranking sort through
all stocks and pick the good ones.> >
