 Added my go-to breakout indicator.  Really pares down the number of tickers, but increases winning trades if you come up with a good exit plan.

 : sorted on average day range(20) descending
 : 5 day look back script for testing
 : entry first day open below original 5th day's high {ent} and high above {ent}...maximum 5 days, but more likely no more than 3 days
 : exit could be close on 5th day, rsi(2) above 65, a stop loss, whatever
 : rsi(2) > 65 as an exit looks to avoid significant losses, but the trade off is not benefiting from runners

 xarlor,
 
 Very nice.  I went back through the last 2 weeks and about 6 in the red, but only 2 actually lost money.
 
 I am going to run with that and compare to some other moving averages.
 
 Thanks,
 Snappy aka Gary

 compound_gains,
 
 I added "day" to the line and atr(10) .... where I see it got left out.

 My bad. Leaving out "day" negated the atr(10) line as a filter. Putting it in significantly reduces the returns, making what I put forward a very ho-hum filter overall. But the hits I was getting without atr(10) were interesting. Back to the drawing board.
