I use forward growth rate = (>=3D15%), price (>=3D10) and volume (>=3D90000) as the only = requirements for a "first pass." I call these my "basic criteria" and I = think each person would define these very differently. What that does = for me is to keep me in the right sector of the sea, but doesn't blind = me to all the good looking fish in the area. The next pass I take restricts only based on minimal technical strength. = I look for RS>=3D60, >=3D200 day moving average and no more than 15% = below the 50 day moving average. It's surprising what interesting stocks = show up by keeping to these simple filters. Beyond that, the method you = employ to sort through the fish you catch is a matter of preference.
