Ashish, what you are asking is rather subjective, and pretty much personal - why don't you try each, and use that which better fits your personality and pockets? For example, you might try backtesting a break-out strategy on some stocks, and a mechanical systems on those which are less volatile.
  Mechanical systems have higher drawdowns, so you may find that hard to follow, you need some discipline to trade them - forget that rubbish about removing the emotion out of trading, to remove emotions out of a human being, you've got to remove his brains! See your capital shrinking due to the drawdown because the market is going through a period for which the system is not suited, and you'll know what I mean!
  Some people have posted in this forum strategies which are quite interesting; also, you could subscribe to the MSTT newsletter, from Roy Larsen, where a good number of them are discussed, and some even backtested and paper traded.
  Trading is very personal, what works for me may well not work for you at all, you've got to find your own way.

          Hi all,

Can anyone suggest me how should i go about doing system trading on individual stocks.

Should the system be truly mechanical or subjective.

Should i be looking at patterns, break outs, dow theory or indicators like averages, etc.
