Stock Scan Results by the Rambunctious Pig As At 7 15 pm EST November 22 (updated) ~ free forex trading signal alerts

The contents of this post may temper your trading strategy for the next couple days. I have created an index of 992 stocks that trade between $10 and $25 at the close Friday so that I can measure certain aspects of that index and also to compare individual instruments against it as well.

The first scan that I can describe was to measure the momentum of the index and also the momentum of the 992 instruments as decreasing or increasing as of Friday close.


First, here is the chart of the index that I created.

The lower chart shows the homemade momentum indicator and, as you can see, the momentum is almost neutral for the group.

Next I did a scan to determine how many are decreasing and how many are increasing in momentum.

• Decreasing in momentum are 508 instruments
• Increasing in momentum are  484 instruments

The count is just about even and not really anything to base any decisions on based on Fridays data.

Here is another look at the same chart with a Slow Stochastic.

As you can see, the Slow Stochastic is approaching the overbought area which may indicate a move is coming.

Certainly we can not use this chart as any measure except perhaps to consider when making the trading plan for the next week.

I wanted to share that research today and as time passes I will be improving the scans on that group of stocks and sharing those with you.

I wish you the best with your trading strategy for the coming week.

Good Trading..!

Here they are: 7 signs of bad investment

1. Research, lack of research is probably one of the greatest mistake you can make, if you make good research, then you can get at least some confidence in your trade, which is important when it goes bad at the beginning.
2. Hesitation on fundamentals, this mainly applies to stock market, Forex traders rearly have to focus on fundamental data
3. Buying stocks for long term with no end in mind, it speaks for itself.

In its present condition FOREX was launched in the 1970s, when free exchange rates were introduced, and only the participants of the market determine the price of one currency against the other proceeding from supply and demand. As far as the freedom from any external control and free competition are concerned, FOREX is a perfect market. It is also the biggest liquid financial market. According to various assessments, money masses in the market constitute from 1 to 2 trillion US dollars a day. (It is impossible to determine an absolutely exact number because trading is not centralized on an exchange.) Transactions are conducted all over the world via telecommunications 24 hours a day from 00:00 GMT on Monday to 10:00 pm GMT on Friday. Practically in every time zone (that is, in Frankfurt-on-Main, London, New York, Tokyo, Hong Kong, etc.) there are dealers who will quote currencies More info for How can YOU Earn Thousands of Dollars Each Day ~ forex trading tax in south africa: Read More Rabu, 06 April 2016 Polish Currency - forex trading tax ireland Posted on 09.25 by sidik Polish Currency ~ forex trading tax ireland If you are considering, long term investment, like one or two months than Polish currency might be interesting for you. For the last year it got stronger and stronger. Just checkout the charts below, this are EUR/PLN and USD/PLN, timeframe 1 year, on both charts you can see what i would call quality trend. Line is at 45 degrees, almost no corrections. EUR/PLN Lets start with EUR/PLN, i wont even talk about technical analysis, indicators and so on, you can see what is happening here. Just draw the line wait for minor correction and get into trade. You maybe wondering. Ok it went down for a year, wont it turn back? This is a good question, i think this trend can end up pretty soon maybe 3 or 4 months, hard to say really. The problem here is that Polish bussiness has a problem with strong PLN against EUR, because a lot of companies export their products to west Europe. With strong Polish currency, their products are actually more expensive and thus less competetive. The bottom line is, Polish bussinessmen want this trend to stop, and i believe that government will do what they ask for, the question is when? USD/PLN Now look at USD/PLN chart it looks almost the same as EUR/PLN, so again i wont go into details how to trade it. Now to answer the same question as earlier, is this trend here to stay? I think it is, because gas price in Poland pretty much depends on gas price in USA. When gas price in USA gets more expensive it also gets more expensive in Poland (and rest of the world btw). However, if gas price will go up, but at the same time Polish currency would get stronger against dollar, then it wont affect Poland as much as it would without USD/PLN going down. Now if i got you interested in this form of investment, you will need a broker, which allows to trade Polish currency or at least EUR/PLN and USD/PLN. As far as i am concerned there are not much brokers who allow this. The ones who do are Oanda and maybe SaxoBank however i am not sure of that. That is not end of the problems, even if you will find broker who allows to trade this pairs, probably spread on them will be somewhere between 20 and 40 pips, so like i said it is only good to trade them if you are looking for long term investment not scalping or even swing trading.

I believe that you will be amazed at the capabilities of this tool, I will attempt to demonstrate. We will start with a randomly generated strategy which uses the Macd and a close and reverse option, meaning that each time the Mac crosses zero, the trade is closed and another entered going the opposite direction. No special reason for this strategy, I just wanted to have something to work with. Here is the strategy as it is after generating for a few minutes You can see that the balance is shown as 87,442. I am going to use the optimizer and see what happens when I optimize for a higher net. This result may be entirely unsatisfactory based on other metrics, such as Win/Loss or Sharpe Ratio or….  Once this run is finished we will have a look at other metrics to see what can be improved.. Here is some results from optimizing for Net Profit There was a gain in the net profit, but looking at some other metrics, this result is horrible. Notice the win loss and consecutive losses. I will optimize the win loss, you can see the setting in the diagram. I was able to improve the Win/Loss as well as the Net Profit, also the consecutive losses was reduced considerably I do have a concern that the losses are awkward to deal with, I will now attempt to improve the Sharpe Ratio. I can see that I am going to have a problem with the equity curve, it is just not going to end up satisfactory. After playing with the controls and attempting different things, I could see that the equity curve was not going to be satisfactory and I have discarded the strategy. Here are the metrics on which the optimizer will work. As you can see this optimizer is quite powerful. I will work with a new strategy and post developments, hopefully better results than this.
