From Stockbee's blog:

Mark Boucher in his book details his Momentum/ Relative Strength based system for trading the world markets, the commodities, and the stocks. At the heart of his equity selection method is momentum. He use a weighted average Rate of Change or ROC to rank stocks. He offers two methods for equity selection based on whether you are long term traders or short term traders.

For Short Term Traders

( (2 * C * 100 / C5) + (2 * C * 100 / C25) + ( C * 100 / C40) ) / 5

He advises focusing on top 20% stocks by this kind of ROC scan.

The code is for trade station I think and I don't know how to translate it for Stockfetcher, maybe someone here knows how to do it.

Many Thanks,
Morsan

Many thanks reels, much appreciated.

Im not the best at coding so forgive me if I ask the obvious. Where do I cut in the filter to get the short term filter "( (2 * C * 100 / C5) + (2 * C * 100 / C25) + ( C * 100 / C40) ) / 5"?

i plan to use it against zacks ranks #1, and I hope that the market will continue to move up, even if it doesn't look so today.

Many Thanks,
Morsan

add the following lines:

"add column STT
add column LTT

sort on column 5 descending"

This will sort the stocks from the strongest short-term strength to the weakest.

Hi, you're welcome Morsan,

this is the "short time" part with place for Wlist or pick tickers to
examine freely with no select coding.
