I have stockfinder gold on trial. I've spent time since receiving it trying to understand rules etc.
I've looked at all the videos and they have helped, although I'm struggling with real code!!!.
I'm a new trader and I'll be day trading. I've paper traded using freestockcharts.
What I'm looking for are rules that will find stocks between $10 - $70 and have over 1m traded daily.
I'm also looking for a minimum range of $1 and a tight spread of 1-2 cents.
I'm also looking for a rule if a stock gaps over 3% in the opening minutes.
Previous days big movers that re-trace.
Looking for stocks that have re-traced 30-4-% an have resumed original direction and are above or below previous days highs or lows.
I would also like to search for 2 days highs and 2 day lows.
After the first hour trading I would like to scan for stocks that have broken their 1st hour highs or lows and are now trending.
After 11.30, look for stocks with above average volume.
After 2pm, look for stocks that are about to break out to new highs or lows and are possibly trending.
I realize to day trade I need to upgrade to platinum, I'm using Gold to see if I can work with it before upgrading?
I have found it very slow when scanning, is this normal?
Sorry for all the questions, I hope you can help.
