Hi Neal,

Just until Andreas can answer your question, "IG" is referring to the =
industry group graphs in DGO (http://beta.dailygraphs.com). These are =
the same graphs shown on the Big Picture page in IBD, but all industries =
are available each day.

  Tom,

  I am not concerned, my SL is very tight and the IG Trend is up, so I =
belive
  there is a good
  chance that the BO will work.

  I am not good in calculating pivot points, the whole entry strategy of
  Oneil just does not work
  for me and a 50/50 chance is not good enough for me.

  What I am trying to do is to get in before the breakout. If I miss it =
I
  still consider
  to go in (as with GAIA), but that depends on how strong the industry =
trend
  is.

  What determines if a breakout works or not? I bet on the Industry =
Group
  Trend (and what I did backtest
  so far looks good enough for me, so that I try this now).

  So I do not use the rule that if you miss a breakout 10% above Pivot, =
that
  you should not go in.

  The Industry Group Chart that gave a buy signal on 12/27, which
  I was not reacting to, because I had some other unfortunate private =
things
  to do.

  (A buy signal of an Industry Group is for me: Price breaks out of a
  consolidation area,
  RS and Price of the Group is in a clear uptrend and I apply chart =
patterns
  that are known from individual stocks
  to the group, furthermore RS of the IG should be above 80, better 90)

  I completly changed my strategy, I only look from top down (Market -->
  Industry Group --> Stock).
  A IG sets up a bull market for its members, that can even go against =
the
  whole market. Oil and Medical
  Stocks had great returns in 2000 or 2001. From where did TARO come?

  When a IG gives me a signal, I simply look up the stocks that look
  fundamentally and technically good (applying
  Canslim Criteria).

  Example FDS -->

  FDS seems fundamentally to be OK, RS is a litle weak, but 70 is still =
OK
  for me because the IG Strength is above 80.

  Now the important part:

  Industry Group is in a good uptrend, RS is 85, RS and price make new =
highs
  almost every day.
  Chart of FDS  has a real nice Flag and I can go in very agressivly =
with a
  real tight stop (I try to get in tomorow for 35 and the SL will be =
around
  34). and simply wait for a breakout.

  I can use margin on my account (due to the tighter stop loss) and can =
so
  spread my bets to 8 - 10 Stocks.
  I am not sure how long I will wait, but so fare it never took longer =
then a
  week to be stoped out or to be
  in before the BO.

  Since I use this strategy I have some promising results and my =
portfolio is
  doing great during downdays of the market.
  I got in SIDE (before), ROOM (well before), RSC (before), FHRX (after
  breakout, because I liked the IG Trend), RYL (After).

  Even better, I use it also for selling:
  ECTX and UTSI got out (with a win) after I saw that the IG is not =
ready yet
  (Its still basing).


  I know this is not all sound and not yet backtestet, but something =
tells me
  that I should try this.

  See you

  Andreas
