Ah, green stocks! Finding a green stock in today’s tape is like finding a cute girl on TV while watching womens’ track and field. Or women’s Olympic-lifting.
With the Dow down over -300 in the past two days, I decided to run one my favorite day trading/swing trading screens. I call it the “Green Screen”. Works well in contrarian days (ie, look for green stocks in the past 2 days when the market was deep red).
Criteria:
Price % gain vs Today low >= 3% … screen for today’s movers
Volume > average
Volume >= 500k
Price % gain vs. Previous >= 1% … a possible two-day trend can signal strength.

You could have said “commodity stocks are up,” and saved yourself the trouble.
I was just gonna ask, can you find which sector is moving?
This is a two-day screen so it knocked off a lot of the commodity stocks down yesterday. In other words, searching for strength in the strongest sector.
But yeah, I had to type in all those tickers and all those [[]][[][][][][][][][][]]]]]]]]]]]]][[[[[[[[[[[][][][][][[[[[]

Ringer, I was sortah referring to the Olympics, since that’s the only time i watch women’s track and field…
… but based on that last picture of the Paraguayan hottie, I think I’m gonna have to TiVo more track and field sports. Long track and field South American women, short European olympic-weight lifters girls.
