We have only taken longs in this portfolio. Been looking at futures indexes for short trades.
Maybe Tech can elaborate on the fact that we've only traded long. I haven't discussed this with him in any detail tbh.
Would you elaborate on this please Tech?
Dont know what there is to elaborate on.
IB doesnt allow for shorting ASX stocks
so its a long only trading method.
Ive never traded stock short in 20 yrs.
If I want to trade short I trade Futures.

Always tells me its looking for stock.
Never been able to get on yet.
Any chance of posting a chart and sharing your thoughs on this SXL short trade?
DMA CFD's are an alternative to IB.
No I don't think they are a secret but if we knew what to input into a scan so we can isolate these momentum stocks might get us off to a flying start.
I know Tech uses Yahoo to find biggest gains for the day, no secret there but for all other scans not quite sure how he and Pav construct them to build their watch list without going through each stock individually.
Tech
Momentum stocks for a watch list.
What is your requirement, is there a certain upward percentage move like say, 20% rise over a short period of time?
A shorter Moving Average above say a 50 day MA?
And what makes you throw some out -
Low volume? What is the minimum volume criteria you require?
What else bring these candidates to your attention?
Cheers ... Debtfree
Tech, can we touch on the minimum volume needed to make a stock ok to put into our watchlist.
Should we be looking at just volume (number of shares) or volume $$ (number of shares x price of shares)
Also many thanks Tech / Pav / Canoz and many others for your posts in other threads, very helpful and many apply to this thread as well.
