Filtering for shares...Please Help!

Reply
Not applicable
Good Day, I have been trading for about a year now, and although I have a strategy that i follow, I am struggling to filter through all the share options to find possible trades! My strategy basically goes: Entry: When a candle body forms above the 200 day MA Confirmation: higher highs and higher lows. Generally the 50 day MA will be below the 200 MA at this point. Exit: I use a stop loss exit So, my problem is filtering through the JSE to find shares that i can trade. I used to filter for shares by looking at indices that trade above the TOP40 and then find shares in there that trade above the index, but usually these shares are already trending and my entry will not trigger. Am I filtering wrong or is the problem inherent to my strategy?? Any advice would be appreciated, Thanks!
