BUY: if a stock has 50% higher than normal volume AND its up 1% on the day. Buy at the open the next morning (we will have triggers every day in System Trades of the Day and in the Unusual Volume list on Today's Lists).

SELL: if the stock is up 2 days in a row, sell at the open the next day. Note that you could own the stock then for only one day.

To the left are some sample stocks that have worked well in the system.
