About this strategy
This strategy takes long positions in stocks for short term gains. Each day stocks are purchased then held for a week at which time they are checked against the criteria used to originally purchase them. Depending on the results, the stock will be held or replaced. Essentially 20% of the account is traded each weekday. Purchases and sales are made nearly every day. For a larger account this is not a problem. For a smaller account brokerage commission levels are very important. That is why I use Interactive Brokers for my personal account. For a smaller account a user could further reduce the cost of commissions by only taking the trades that occur on a particular day of the week to decrees transaction costs. This is also a good idea for those who wish to follow only by email rather than AutoTrader. This strategy holds approximately 10-20% cash in the account at a time.

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.
These results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
