Tom, I spoke with WizeTrade a few minutes ago and they told me that =
fundamentals were required for position trading (1 - 4 months+). One of =
their most successful position traders selects his candidates from =
Daily Graphs AFTER they pass the following criteria:
i. STOCK PRICE BETWEEN $10 AND $60
ii. AVERAGE VOLUME >=3D 400,000 shares per day
iii. TIMELINESS =3D A
iv. ACCUMULATION =3D A or B
v. SMR RATING =3D 60-99 or (A/B)*
vi. GROUP RATING =3D 60-99 or (A/B)*
vii. RS >=3D 79
* Note: DGO in some reports will grade items as A,B,C etc. and in =
another report will grade the same item numerically. A score of 60-79 =
=3D B and 80-99=3DA. A score of 60 or higher means that it is at least a =
rating of B.
He also uses Stockcharts and MA's to make the final decision as to the =
candidates that move on to WT.
Haven't seen any data that 'tells' me that using fundamentals for =
intermediate or swing trading is bad!!! So ...even if using them is =
nothing more than a placebo, they make me feel good, so why not =
continue to use them... that's the easiest and most structured part of =
the process.... chart reading by my definition being the most difficult.
K. what have you learned from this banter?

Gene,
It all depends on whether you have the time and stamina to day trade, =
or you are trying to invest. If the former, go with WizeTrade. If the =
latter, find something that works beyond a few hours or a few days.=20
I have known a number of day traders over the years, and none used =
fundies, most didn't even know what the company did for business. =
Ignored sector or industry group, earnings (past or future), RS, etc. =
Several didn't even really know how to read a chart, simply relied on =
current momentum. The ones that did it professionally spent upwards of =
10 hours a day in front of their monitor(s). One had 7 different =
monitors and two TVs he tried to watch continuously.

Subject: Re: [CANSLIM] Point of View: Why bother with fundamentals?
K, thanks for the clarification.
A couple of weeks ago I would have said 'no fundamentals... are you =
kidding me'.=20
I've had several discussions over the past 2-3 weeks and as recently =
as last Thursday, I was told to think 'out of the box' by a VP at =
WizeTrade. I signed up for their 30-day trial (week ago) and was in his =
office 'showing' him the shortcomings of his system. He showed me a sign =
that said... price is determined by buyers and sellers. He went on to =
say that all I had to do was to look at the Green (buy) and Red (sell) =
indicators.... green means more buyers than sellers and red more sellers =
than buyers. The program has charts.... felt better when I found that =
out.... turns out the charts were just time intervals intraday, day, =
week, month.... the lines on the chart were green and red. When the =
green crossed up over red, time to buy.... when red over green it's time =
to sell.=20
From WizeTrade home page or links.
The green line and the red line are summation formulas and not =
price lines or graphs
"No, WizetradeT is not based on "moving averages." WizetradeT =
uses seven key technical indicators to perform its complex "real-time" =
calculations at the rate of 800-1500 calculations per second. The seven =
key indicators are the previous day's closing price, the current day's =
opening price, high, low, every up tick, every down tick - which are =
then exponentially weighted to volume."=20
How can this system work, no fundamentals, stochastic, MACD, =
candlesticks, CANSLIM, etc.?? They seem to take pride in buying =
companies that they don't know much about or what the symbol stands =
for.... they do take pride in the fact that their software tells them =
immediately when there are more buyers than sellers, etc. .... BTW, they =
signaled to get out of ENE at 80+.
I was told that fundamentals were nothing more than a time waster =
and a poor placebo (in a nice way).=20
I'm interested in learning 'the truth'. Certainly would be nice to =
quit looking at fundamentals and all that research as well as spending =
money on DGO/IBD.... etc. WizeTrade also eliminates the need to track or =
know anything about sector rotation.... their buyers and sellers tell =
them all that.
Is it possible that I've been wasting my time looking for data to =
support what I call a good company?
Naw, can't be!
Guess I'll just have to try to understand how and if their system =
works.... over the holidays.=20
Disclaimer: I don't work for them and until my trial is over, I'm =
not even a customer.

Proposed:
If a typical CANSLIM/Intermediate term move in a stock lasts =
only a few weeks, and in good markets, only a few months, why bother =
selecting portfolio candidates using any sort of fundamental analysis? =
Returns in this time period are strictly based on price movement and can =
be maximized based on technical indicators and price/volume action =
alone.
Thoughts pro/con?
