 That does not spew any results in a downturn or bucks the down trend.
 So other than a momentum filter,
 Which stock filters come close.
 Where you see many results in an upswing &
 few to none in a downswing.

 wow Four,
 
 I really like that top filter, that one has some really nice moves up especially when you it back 3 days. I see lots or nice moves up after it hits those triggers in the column you added. Very nice :)

 Thanks
 The 'trigger' will sometimes keep you out of a trade that would have gone south.

 These for the most part look like 1% plays.
 Look good for a quick scalp as long as you're willing
 to wait days sometimes.

 Or try to use the simple approach to long investing.    Use "and MACD(12,26,9)fast line crossing above MACD(12,26,9)slow line previous 1 day" flag.    Applicate this against quality, popular companies (apply to watchlist) and you should get decent results.    I did a backtest against a positive market environment period and received,  87% Wins and ROI = 85%.    Happy investing!

 To safeguard this nice filter even more all you need to add to this above mentioned filter I provided, "and MACD(12,26,9)fast line is below 0 previous 1 day".   The backtest results for this (in a positive market environment) is 87% Wins and ROI = 103%.     Why complicate things, this is a simple yet effective filter to add to your arsenal of filters to make you money.    Happy investing!
