IIC's Winners Watchlists

[IIC]

Doug,
Does Mr. Breakout keep statistics on breakout success and failures for his separate lists, such as MoMo vs. Crossovers vs. daily watchlists?Thanks

Well...My lists beat those "Other" claims that nobody can ever verify by 82.36965% last year...LOL

But seriously...No, there is no reason to track the performance. My lists are not recommendations. On my Weekend Report I list stocks that meet certain criteria...that's it. Doesn't mean they are good. For example, I list one in my Flat Base/Lo Volume category...unless it makes an upward move on volume...it is not worth looking at if that's the type you like. Or, on the Cup w/ Handles...and yes I know none were "Classic" today...If it doesn't reach it's "Flash Point" on vol...then forget it if that's what you are looking for.

My lists are simply "Watch Lists" or for further Due Diligence if you like the basic parameters. I just offer them as timesavers.

Now, my Daily Watch Lists are actually ones that I watch at the open for possible Day Trade purposes...but over 90%+ never make it past the first 1/2 hour for me...I watch them in RealTime and then set up my "Concentrated" list during the first 1/2 hour ea. day. Plus I add others that I want to watch too that I find early or am told about at the chats, news sites or IM'd by my trading partner.

To be honest...my weekend report is fun to prepare...but the lists are mostly for others...Guess I'm just a nice guy But actually, it does help me because when I'm searching for stuff or running scans I find a few that are of interest to me....Best, Doug(IIC)

You qualify

Well...Guess I'm just a nice guy ....Best, Doug(IIC)

Yup, you qualify! I agree!

[IIC]

Yup, you qualify! I agree!

Thanks NB...I appreciate it. 'Ya know, I've met over 60 people in person that I originally met on the Net at stock Forums since '98...I have met better traders/investors than I and worse...But I never met one who was not a nice person IMO...I think that is important.

I met my Trading Partner via the IBD Forums over 2 years ago...God Forbid...But we are both reformed...LOL...I enjoy kickin' her ____ but it doesn't happen that often...But it gives me something to shoot for...Doug(IIC)

I'm still looking forward to meeting you Doug. May not be too soon, as I have plenty to do at work, and it will be the case for the next month or two.

Doug,
Those were some pretty dang big waves that quake sent out. 4 inches and 1 1/2 feet high. I bet you're glad they didn't hit the LA coastline area.

I slept in my swimming trunks ...just in case

WASHINGTON, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Surging energy costs drove U.S. consumer prices up in July at the sharpest rate in three months, according to a government report on Tuesday that highlighted the impact of costlier imported oil.

The Consumer Price Index, the most widely used gauge of inflation pressures, climbed 0.5 percent last month after an unchanged reading in June. It was the biggest increase in monthly consumer prices since a matching 0.5 percent jump in April and topped Wall Street economists' forecasts for a 0.4 percent rise.

But so-called core inflation, which strips out volatile food and energy items, inched up just 0.1 percent for a third straight month. Over the past 12 months, this closely watched measure of consumer prices has risen a moderate 2.1 percent.

Energy prices increased 3.8 percent in July, a sharp reversal from declines of 0.5 percent in June and 2 percent in May. Gasoline prices jumped 6.1 percent. Oil and gas prices have been plumbing uncharted territory in recent weeks and show little sign of letting up.

Food prices edged up 0.2 percent after a 0.1 percent gain in June.

Apparel costs and new motor vehicle prices both logged big declines, with clothing's 0.9 percent drop the biggest since April 2001 and the 1.0 percent slide in new motor vehicle prices the largest since January 1975, driven lower by manufacturer price cuts.
