Larry Williams in his book "Long term secrets to short term trading" states that certain days of the week are positive for the market.I don't know if anyone is aware,but most Mondays are a high percentage day up.Anyone know of a filter for this?

This can't be done in SF.

I was actually thinking the same thing in conjunction with one of TRO's Swing Trade filters. But as Kevin has alluded too, I don't think it can be done.

I think if you can couple TRO's Swing Trade stat scan with a 'day' of the week variable or offset for weekly data you can put the odds more in your favor.

I'm going to do a manual look back on the SPY to see what days put the odds in favor of the long side.Monday's are a long side biased day.What the other four days are,I'm going to do some digging.Thanks for the input.....

Use the search button and happy reading. There is a ton of content on the forum. So pointing you to a specific place would be useless.

In addition to markets, I believe stocks also have certain days of the week that are better than others.
With thanks, influence and coding mainly from TRO (thanks also to muddy, NIKO, Alf44, Chetron, JP, Jim Button and a cast of hundreds since I joined SF in 2003) I adopted five filters. One for each day of the week going back 45 days. Filters are Today, 1 day ago, 2 days ago, 3 days ago, 4 days ago.

I usually buy call options near the close and sell the next morning. I use market direction, filter stat info, rsi(2), other TRO stat filters, 5, 15, 30 minute charts, plus option delta to take a profit. I take a small predetermined amount . And yes I tend to leave money on the table, but better conservative and rich than greedy and poor.

I use high today – yesterdays close as a starting point, but open – high, high – low, etc can be used as desired. These filters are not setup to be viewed on a chart, only in text form. One can easily see the patterns when viewing all five filters. The only negative is a holiday will throw the days off for a week (5 days).

For reference here are two of the five filters:
