  Kevin:
 News today from Bloomberg radio interview. An analyst who follows ACOR and the industry puts a target of $39.00 on it by end of 2010. No other drug out there today will do what this one is capable of doing safely, safety of the drug was the drug was the FDA concern. 
 Trade safe,
 Gabe

  Sounds good, but my exit strategy will probably be executed well before then.
 
 This was actually the first stock purchased using this strategy, back on 8/26.  Got up to +15-16% before drifting down then crashing.  Glad it is back in the green.
 
 Had I used a stop loss as part of this approach, I would be sitting at -20% on this trade rather than at +12% with more upside to come.

 I will post this here with your permission only. I have a long time friend who has a free web site for anyone interested in Bollinger Bands and how to trade within them. Loaded with free educational videos with very accurate  Buy & Sell signals
 In my opinion and others BB's are the safest form of trading and what you are doing is right on target.
 Trade safe,
 Gabe

  I'm all about shared learning - anything that makes us better traders is cool by me.  Go for it.

  Kevin,
 
 I was playing around with the TOS back testing feature with some of the results you guys have been having.  There's some interesting ratio spread possibilites.  I'm trying to workout how to filter your watchlists for optionable stocks.  It's got me going in circles.  I keep getting zero results.
 
 Here's my filter:
 
 Close is above 5
 and stock is optionable
 and apply to watchlist  (IBD1,IBD2,IBD3)
 and draw RSI(2)
 
 I'd appreciate help from anyone really.
 
 All the best,
 mike

 I get 251 stocks as a result.  Are you SURE you have made the IBD1,IBD2, and IBD3 watchlists?  No watchlists would explain the lack of results.
 
 In case you are interested here are the first 200 optionable stocks from those lists:
 
 AAPL	ABAX	ABV	ACTG	ACTU	ADS	ADVS	AEA	AES	AFL	AGN	AIRM	ALXN	AMED	AMSC	AMX	ANEN	ANSS	APKT	ARO	ARRS	ASIA	ASPM	ATHN	ATW	AYR	AZZ	BAP	BBD	BCRX	BEC	BIDU	BIOS	BJRI	BKI	BMC	BR	BRLI	BUCY	BWLD	BYI	CA	CAM	CCE	CCJ	CEA	CERN	CFSG	CHKP	CHS	CHSI	CIB	CISG	CMG	CNQR	CPA	CPLA	CRAY	CREE	CRI	CRM	CSC	CTB	CTCM	CTRN	CTRP	CTSH	CTXS	CVLT	CXO	CYBS	CYD	DBRN	DFG	DIN	DISCA	DLLR	DLM	DLR	DLTR	DRC	DTG	DVR	DXCM	EBS	EDU	EEFT	EJ	ENDP	EPAY	EPB	EQIX	ESLT	EXPE	FDS	FFH	FFIV	FIS	FISV	FLS	FTI	FUQI	G	GCA	GES	GET	GFA	GIB	GIVN	GMCR	GOL	GOOG	GPS	GTLS	GTS	GYMB	HDB	HGSI	HMIN	HMSY	HPQ	IBM	IBN	ICON	IMA	INFA	INFY	ININ	INT	ISRG	ITWO	JCG	JOSB	JOYG	KBR	KCI	KONG	KSS	LFT	LKQX	LPS	LTM	LULU	LZ	MA	MANT	MDAS	MDRX	MED	MELI	MFE	MHS	MR	MSTR	NCMI	NEOG	NETL	NEU	NFLX	NICE	NILE	NITE	NRG	NTES	NUS	NWS	ODSY	OFG	OII	ORCL	PCLN	PETS	PHH	PKX	PL	PRAA	PRX	PSSI	PTI	PVH	PWRD	QGEN	QSFT	QSII	RADS	RBI	RGR	RHT	RIMM	RKT	RMD	RNOW	ROST	RY	SBUX	SEPR	SFG	SGP	SHOO	SIRO
 
 
 Make this a new watchlist (maybe called "IBD optionable 1") and use it.
 
 Remaining 51 stocks:
 
 SLH	SMP	SMRT	SNDA	SNX	SSRX	STAR	STEC	SWKS	SY	SYNT	TDC	TDG	TECD	TEN	THC	TIN	TJX	TLEO	TNS	TPX	TRLG	TSL	TSRA	TTEC	TUP	UHS	ULTA	ULTI	UNM	URBN	V	VIP	VMI	VPRT	VRX	WBD	WBMD	WCRX	WDC	WIT	WLT	WMS	WNS	WRC	WRLD	WX	WXS	WYN	WYNN	ZUMZ
 
 Make this a new watchlist as well (maybe called "IBD optionable 2") and use it. 
 
 Kevin

  It is interesting idea  that requires more studying. Playing with options using the bollinger band strategy. Sell on the money Puts. The premium will be high since the stock is in in pull back. Worst case; the option is exercised and you buy the stock which you were already going to buy. 
 
 Kevin: I understand you stopped buying new stocks using the strategy? or you just waiting for the market to move up again then continue your strategy? are you still updating your stocks according to their ratings?
