I have spent much of this weekend working on a modified screening approach to CANSLIM. My goal is to concentrate on stocks that are leaders in their particular Industry Group with the hope that these selections will be longer term holds than some of my previous purchases. This week was interesting for the number of stocks that have started forming bases. I found numerous stocks with 10-20 day bases that warrant a look when the markets open the new year. I have listed those with 3-4 week bases separately below. All stock data used for screening was from Friday's IBD. I have selected the top 5 stocks for EPS and RPS (sum) in the top 20 industry groups. I have also added stocks in these industry groups with either an EPS or RPS of 95 or better. (My thought is these stocks could be leaders with one good earnings report or some good price movement.) All stocks must meet 75/80/A/B/B and A-C sponsorship rating. I only include stocks with at least a 3 week base. Do your own homework, and enjoy. Disclaimer - I presently own APEX and CMVT. Nice bases forming: APEX LXK DITC CMVT - Broke out on Friday COSI SMTC CGN CBXC ZBRA Short bases forming (3-4 weeks) PRGN UNFY VOX TTIL SPNS SYMC MACR XETA CHKP QGENF WHIT CVG ADIC ELNT CTS BELFA "Second Chance List" - The following are all stocks that appear to have broken out, but look to be in a range that might enable an entry within 5% of the pivot point if you watch closely. Note that some of these stocks may be in "failed breakouts", so look at them closely.

I have had several stocks hit my 8% stops and still have the nice return. As for QWST, DURA and WEL, those are not in my trading account and are not reflected in the 370% gain. I did not reflect the performance of these accounts because I do not actively trade in these accounts. I own some YHOO in my IRA that I don't trade and those results are not reflected either.

I picked ORCL up a few months ago when it broke out of a nice c&h at 5-8% above pivot and was stopped out. I then dropped it from my watch list because the drop was on heavy volume and figured it was a failed rally. Several of its competitors were lagging the market badly and I didn't want to try and fight the trend. I obviously was right in my purchase but wrong in my purchase price and selling point.

TSC's chart guy says wedges must be "rising" to break to the upside. I can't tell from his charts the difference between "rising" and "falling" wedges. I.e. they look the same to my eye. Is there a less subjective way to interpret this formation? The reason I ask is because VARL formed a wedge in the end of Nov which looked like a falling wedge, broke out to the upside, failed the breakout, and is now drifting up. Also CCBL and DELL seem to be forming a falling wedge right now. I have noticed this formation most often after a big runup as a stock digests its gains - do you think it is a healthy fm?
