stocks by gating the Buy and Short signals because the stocks thus disabled
will not be substituted with others. Doing this you might have days you are
not trading anything! You have to use the PositionScore to ensure you keep
trading.

because you are trading less stocks. Try it!

Disable stocks with a PositionScore
Hi Herman,
Zero PositionScore only exits positions in RotationalMode. Only
BUY/SELL/SHORT/COVER arrays as well as stops drive when a position is
replaced.
However, if you do what Chuck has suggested, and use some stock-specific
criteria to "turn-off" and Buy or Short signals, you should get what you
want.
NoPosition = You criteria that makes you not want a position in this
stock;
Buy = Your buy code;
Buy= Buy and Not NoPosition;
If you are wanting to re-rank while you have your max positons on to
roll-up to higher-ranked stocks, you can use rotational mode. However,
Fred and others have shown that this can also be done in Regular mode as
well.
Hope this helps,
Gary

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>1 ) Using a zero for PositionScore still gives me trades...in fact
exactly the same number of trades, but the profit drops drastically. Is
there another setting that has to be changed to make this work? Did you or
anybody else try it?

<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>2) Disabling Buys/Short by ANDing them with a qualifier disables the
trades for a particluar stock but does not replace it with another in
your Ranking operation. So if you trade four stocks you'll be trading three,
or less...it messes with your portfolio trading scheme and that is not what
I want.
