Check Out: Chart Summit, a Virtual Conference on Technical Analysis

I'm looking forward to watching some of the presentations over at Chart Summit, a virtual conference of technical analysis.  I've been a fan of Brian Shannon's for over a decade and I met Chris Kimble at Stocktoberfest a couple of years ago after watching his impressive talk.  So I already know their talks will be great.  Judging by some of the talk titles, those videos should be helpful to folks new to technical analysis in figuring out ways to use SwingTradeBot's scans & signals.

Here's the email I got announcing the availability of the Chart Summit videos:  

New Scans: Most Alerts, Most Bullish Alerts & Most Bearish Alerts

By popular demand, I'm releasing three new scans today  They are:

• Stocks with the most alerts
• Stocks with the most bullish alerts
• Stocks with the most bearish alerts

A (Possibly) Disturbing Divergence on the General Market Overview Page

I've been noticing this while reviewing the Genreal Market Overview page for several days now and wanted to highlight it.  I've written several times about how I use the "Percent of Stocks Above their 50-Day Moving Averages" (similar to Worden's T2108 indicator) as an overbought / oversold indicator.  And I like it much better to signal oversold than overbought. 

A Look Back at the Signals Which Launched EVR's 40+ Percent Rally...

The other day I was flipping through charts on the top percentage gainers scan and noticed the run EVR has had over the last three months.  It's pretty much been straight up (more than 40%) since late October.

New Scan: Stocks Making a Three-Weeks-Tight Pattern

I just added a scan to find stocks making a 3-Weeks-Tight pattern.  This is a pattern that Investor's Business Daily / William O'Neil likes a lot.  As they describe it:

New Scan: Percentage Change Between Two Dates

Here's another new scan: Percentage Change Between Two Dates

You can choose whether you want to see the best or worst performers over the previous 5, 10, 30, 90 or 365 days.

New Stock Scans: Upper & Lower Bollinger Band Touches

Here are two new scans I released the other day:

• Upper Bollinger Band Touch
• Lower Bollinger Band Touch

These should be useful to combine with other scans when using the Combination Scan.  

How To Save / Bookmark a Combination Scan

I was just asked this:  

Would like to reduce the time for scan runs…..I have 4 different  Combo scans which would be great to store and run daily.  Is there a simple way save the scans and run without manual input?

Here's the answer:

New Stock Scans: Oversold & Overbought Stochastic

I've added a couple of new scans to the site.  They are:

• Oversold Stochastic
• Overbought Stochastic

The Super Duper Combo Scan is Here!

I just released a feature I've been wanting for a long time.  I've also been asked for it by many people.  It's essentially a scan of scans.  You can now combine up to three scans into one result set.  The stocks which will be returned are only those which match all the requested scans.  

You'll find it on the main scans page called the 'combo scan'.  This will make it even easier & faster to find trading candidates matching your trading style.  Simply choose two or three different scans and enter the other criteia as usual.
