After coffee and a good night's sleep, a fresh read this morning shows the similarities in the views. What baffles me a bit though, is that if I look at this on a weekly chart, the handle begins to form 10/11 and drifts nicely. But, since 11/11 this seems to be under what I'd characterize as "subtle accumulation." That steady accumulation shows up particularly on an hourly chart over the last couple of weeks. Not a decided B/O above a handle high of 72, but in total, sure look like someone's buying it. Any thoughts?

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to find a software package that will allow me to enter a ticker in an Excel spreadsheet cell, and then program another cell to display the current price.  I know there must be some DDE application out there that will do this.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?
 

Everyone,

Thanks for your suggestions.  I found a solution to my problem in the program Personal Stock Monitor (Gold version).  I didn't need real-time or even near real-time.  What I needed was end-of-day, automatic updates in my spreadsheet.  If you are interested, goto http://www.dtlink.com/.

Keep track of the number of days for the float to turn over and you have a nice indication of a signficant increase or decrease in volume.

I think the real question a true CANSLIMMer needs answer for themselves is - are they going to dismiss tech stock till the 'fallen angles' break into new highs in the next bull cycle? The NASDAQ bubble has set a 'high jump' indicator that any tech stock is going to be hard pressed to meet...and if you ignore tech till the next bull charges above NASDAQ 5000 levels, I think you've  written off investing in tech.

Looking at today's Investors Corner I can see either Monika Tjia is a member here or one of her friends is. (g) The topic is breakouts on stocks with a not so perfect EPS rating. Says a stock with a lukewarm EPS rating is ok as long as the other strengths are there. Between '96-'97 the EPS of 75 small and mid-cap stocks at their breakouts was 77 with the average RS being 82. I can see that most of my failed breakouts were issues with much higher EPS ratings. Maybe this indicator can be used as a selling point as the "visibility factor" kicks in. Example: Buy on the breakout with an EPS of 65-70 or so - sell in the 90's? - -Bill Triffet - - - -To subscribe/unsubscribe, email "majordomo@xmission.com" - -In the email body, write "subscribe canslim" or - -"unsubscribe canslim".

Chris,
 
Whys starting at EPS 77 ??? DGO has a floating 'penalty box'. I first discovered it when seeing a disproportionate number of EPS 77 stocks. I asked DGO about it and they replied:
 
EPS of 77 usually means that the EPS rank cannot be calculated either because the company doesn't have enough earnings history, or had erratic earnings history.  1 quarter of negative earnings, 1 quarter positive earnings, etc.
 
Right now their penalty box is EPS 80 with 154 stocks, EPS 77, 78, 79 have about 35 each.
 
DGO has other penalty boxes .... stock with eps 20 to 30 have 190 stocks; 30 to 40 have 329 stocks; and 40 to 50  have 236 stocks, the culprit bin appears to be eps of 32, there are 115 while the surrounding eps bins have about 20 stocks.... Maybe 32 is the triage center for the fallen angels...
 
Since my Swings scans are looking for retracements I use RS 60 to find stocks in an uptrend.
 
I use fundamentals when creating all watchlists.... SMR B is usually a very small loss in candidates as opposed to using a C SMR rating....
