Mike:
 
Not a bad idea.  In other words, if the stock is in a handle at the time
it's being evaluated, it gets a '1'.  
 
You might want to inquire of Tom, Katherine, or Ian to get their input.
For actual screening purposes, however, I'd still throw it out.  But as
I stated, if I see the '1' there, I head straight for the chart.

Hi Duke,
 
If a stock is in a handle, then it will stay on our WON watchlist until
it either breaks out, drops below the handle, or the handle length
exceeds 30 days (5 weeks). The N indicator means it is either in a
handle or was recently. Maybe I should limit it to only stocks that are
in a handle. What do you think?
 
Aloha,

Absolutely.   And when I see that it has been on the list, I scramble to
the chart.  I'm not suggesting you change a thing in that regard. 
 
It may help if I define exactly how I use the Evaluator.  I, like many
herein, run screen after screen each day mining potential winners.
Before the Evaluator came along the majority of my time was spent
culling the losers--stocks that are "outside" my CANSLIM model.  It
didn't take me long to decide that a rating of 7 or better keeps a stock
on my list.  Under the new ratings, I'm considering moving that to 6.8.

 
That being the case, whether or not the stock has made the watch list in
the last 7 days is not significant.  Might have been in the go-go days
preceding the market we're in now, I don't know.  (And with stocks
building seemingly longer bases lately, maybe your criteria should be
longer, like 7 weeks.  Doesn't WON say the handle should be 4 to 7 weeks
in duration? )  
 
The Evaluator provides me the "snapshot" I need...to cull or not.  And
it saves me the most valuable commodity of all:  time.
 
Thanks again for making it available to us.
 
Duke

Hi Duke,
 
re: (FYI:  Yes, there are 11 criteria on the Evaluator, but I throw out
N--the fact a stock appears within the past 7 days on a Watch List is
immaterial for ranking purposes, IMHO.)

Good morning all:
 
Since most of you know how I feel about present market environment,
you'll be glad to know this isn't about that.  It's about AFTER "that!"
I'll explain:
 
Each day, I download the Excel version of the Daily Screen from IBD.
Then I "play" with it for awhile.  I sort various aspects to my personal
preferences: Industry Group Rank (eliminating all above 40); SMR
(eliminating all at C or worse); and so forth.  Then I may sort them by
other factors--combined RS & EPS Ratings or Index of Current PE vs.
Projected--to arrive at a  another cutoff point.  After all that, I put
the remnants into a portfolio with that day's price.  Then I follow the
action.  
 
What I'm seeing is an amalgam of stocks, the majority of which keep
re-appearing in my final cuts.  Some, more than I care to mention, I was
shaken out of earlier this year before going to all cash; some, more
than I care to mention, I wish I'd jumped on.  They're the ones that
when I should have jumped on them (I don't have 20-20 hindsight like IBD
does) the right criteria weren't present (usually the darn charts).  But
the fact remains, many of the same symbols are there.  And they aren't
going away! 
 
Further, on May 6, a truly awful day on all three of the big indexes, I
reviewed my Daily Screens portfolios to see which stocks suffered the
least.  The list read like a who's-who of my Daily Screens Portfolios.  
 
So, here's my question:  If these same names are hanging around like
they are, day in and day out for several months now, both on my sorted
screens and in IBD editorial, does it stand to reason that when the
market turns, these stocks that have exhibited such strength in a bad
market should be the BIG winners when M starts to head North?
 
I, like all of you, hear over and over again that we should be watching
for stocks forming good bases at this time, blah, blah, blah.  But it's
my opinion 9/11 created one crazy environment for the markets and a lot
of stocks we're seeing making big gains these days are NOT conforming to
the teachings of WON.  While composing this, I put these stocks to one
more test.  The Canslim Evaluator.  I found it interesting that while
all these stocks are floating on the top, the average score is an
unimpressive 6.2 out of 10.  In fact, only one was 8 or better:  UOPX at
8.  (FYI:  Yes, there are 11 criteria on the Evaluator, but I throw out
N--the fact a stock appears within the past 7 days on a Watch List is
immaterial for ranking purposes, IMHO.)
 
Your opinions will be highly valued.  Thank you.
 
Duke
 
Everybody should believe in something - I believe I'll have another
glass of great wine!
