<P><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>&nbsp;Jim Greening and the 
list,</FONT></P>
<P><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2><FONT>Thanks for the CRUS gif 
file.</FONT></FONT>
<P><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>I'm new to MS 6.5 and the list.&nbsp; 
I've had thoughts about posting from time to time but feel like I don't have 
much value to share.</FONT>
<P><FONT color=#000000 face=Arial size=2>I very much appreciate your 
postings.&nbsp; I ran a couple of the system tests you posted a couple of weeks 
ago.&nbsp; They seemed to work well for up-trending stocks, not so well for 
stocks in a downtrend.&nbsp; My sense is that it's very difficult to build a set 
of symetrical tests that work for both.&nbsp; (c.f. Chande in the latest 
TAS&amp;C on building symetrical tests).&nbsp; When I look at patterns I always 
seem to subconsciously look for longs.&nbsp; It's irritating.</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I noticed that there are a large number of equities 
up 200 - 500% for the year.&nbsp; I decided that it would be useful and maybe 
profitable to try to get at what recent topping patterns and tests look like so 
I could apply them to current data.&nbsp; So, I wrote an exploration that was 
intended to pull out equities according to the following criteria.</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>The stock is currently at more than 10 and, during 
the last 300 periods, the stock gained more than 300% and then declined more 
than 40%.&nbsp; The extremely simple specific Exploration Filter is:</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>C &gt; 10 AND <BR>C / HHV(HIGH, 300) &lt; .6 
AND<BR>HHV(HIGH, 300) / LLV(LOW,300) &gt; 3</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>The more experienced among you will notice my error 
immediately.&nbsp; Mostly what was returned was a list of stocks for which the 
recent Low is 33% or less than the more distant high.&nbsp; I was interested to 
see that many, not all, of these stocks had what I understand to be a classic 
basing pattern after a decline.&nbsp; (CRUS is not on the list, but I think 
would have been if the period tested for was a little greater than 300.)</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>So, I'm thinking that I will temporarily turn my 
attention to these new potential longs and figure out which ones I like with 
other indicators.</FONT>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT>Thoughts?</FONT></FONT>

i experiment alot with formulas & eliminate many ideas. i am now playing
around with the optimized test version of the formula: 
buy:
Alert(TroughBars(1,L,opt1)=0,0) 
sell:
Alert(PeakBars(1,H,opt1)=0,0)

this allows me to find the best value ( in %min. change ) with 0 losses
for a particular stock. (see peakbars page 237 in the manual for 6.0).
i then plug the result in another system test with the best number and
run the test again against that stock-  now marking the buy & sell arrows
on the high & lows. (i am testing to see if once set up, the arrows will
continue to form as time progresses- i sure hope so)
