  i know. I was reading the rumblings last week from wall street insiders. this is what I learned this week.
 
 1) we are not smarter than our system
 2) our system is not smarter than fundamental analysis

  it happens mac.  when I take a hit, I pull up the Valeant Pharmaceuticals article where Bill Ackman invested 1 Billion and lost it all.  It will put you in a good mood. 
 
 I like Graftonian's GUPPY filter. it's pretty good. I dont hold long..just scalp and move on.

  Thanks PT.  I've been tinkering with a new filter, primarily focusing on expansion/contraction of the trader group. Ran a quick and dirty manual backtest last night, with pretty good results.  I'll try to get the filter cleaned up and post it in the "public filters" section
 Graf

  Graftonian, fantastic. I have been tinkering with the same concept but I havent created anything worth sharing. what I did notice through backtesting is more times than not, you see expansion of short term above long term, then contraction, then expansion.  meaning I didnt see a breakout happen when price action came from below averages.
