Step 2 – Finding the Wiggle Room

Now that I had my list I pulled up the charts for the last 10 days of trading. I noted the 10 day high and low prices, then eyeballed the chart to determine where I thought the wiggle room laid. No scientific statistical methods for me! I noted the wiggle room and then calculated what the profit would be if I bought at the bottom of the wiggle room and sold at the top of the wiggle room. I was only interested in stocks where I could make 10% or more in the wiggle room. This narrowed my list down to my top nine stocks.

These top nine are the stocks that I am going to use in my simulation over the next few weeks, to see if the system works or needs more tweaking.
