Fall Forest Fall

Don't worry treehuggers, I'm not advocating deforestation. Fall Forest Fall is yet another play on the Run Forest Run scan. I was looking at the scan trying to figure out how it worked, and I'm happy to say I did. I realized though, the RFR scan only finds the stocks that have run UP in recent history. This scan searches for the ones that have run DOWN the most times. I also added a line to eliminate stocks that have run 10-19% less than 10 times.

Why is this important? I don't just want stats, I want ALL THE STATS I CAN GET. Everything I know is an extra edge against all the other players in the market. The RFR scan is brilliant, but it only tells half the story. Fall Forest Fall fills that gap. If you are a short seller, this is an essential for your toolbox.

of note, FMD and PMI have both run down 10-19% a whopping 39 times in the past 100 days! In the case of PMI, 49% of the time you would have got a 10% or more gain if you just shorted on red!

Later this week I'll post the combo RFR+FFF scan, that searches for total number of runs up OR down. Feel free to leave any questions or comments and I'll get back to you.
