1. On bullish setups, I only buy if the open is above the previous close, opposite for shorts.
2. Know where ALL support and resistance areas are located.
3. Sell near resistance, buy near support. If I get out near resistance and the stock continues to run, I can always re-enter if I so desire.
4. Never trade more than 1% of my account (5% when I started with a very small account).
5. Trust my scans - I have several as everything runs in cycles. When one quits giving hits another is picking up.
6. Rarely buy call or put options - I tried to swing trade these like stocks. The money to be made in options is by SELLING calls or puts.
7. Stop loss of 3% - get out quickly. Again, I can get back in the trade when the setup provides an entry.

One can't really tell you what is best to use as we all have different styles.
Your favorite setup is probably completely different than others here. My suggestion is to add one indicator at a time, changing the parameters until you can make if find your style of entry. Once you like it, add something else and do this again.
When you can't make an indicator fit your style, throw it out and try something else.

Thanks for the great looking filter.
What is your strategy to buy the stock, in your ex zom is up 88% today. Do you normally run in pre market and put in a market order? or buy them day -1 before close.
*******
Red, I run this after hours. I then try to get a good entry pre-market. If not, I only buy above today's close.
I never put in a market order, especially in pre-market.

Or possibly the separation / angle of the Weekly_Daily oscillator beneath the chart?

Here is my simplified version. I took out many of the lines on the chart to make it easier to see.
Now if we can come up with a way to look at the possible angle or max separation between these two lines I think we would have a clear winner. I have posted two chart examples below to show the difference in how the slope of the lines look vs what the price did after the scan picked these.
