  Looking for a good short filter, you do anything with RSI(2) to find shorts?

  Yes, RSI(2) > 99 indicates time to get your shorts on.
 
 Even better is when there is negative divergence between price and rsi(2).
 
 Look at QQQQ on a 1 year/weekly chart.
 
 5/23/05 Close was 38.21, rsi(2) = 97.49
 
 7/25/05 Close was 39.58, rsi(2) = 94.56.. NEG DIV!!
 
 4 weeks later, 8/22/05, close was 38.46
 
 9/5/05 Close was 39.62, rsi(2) = 86.45.. NEG DIV from 7/25/05 peak!!
 
 5 weeks later,  10/10/05, close was 38.06.
 
 MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

  Great explanation TRO! Have you created any filters which test for divergence on the top or bottom? I was reading a post by HG awhile back about divergence and didn't know if anyone had been able to build a filter that can locate stocks with good RSI(2) price divergence.
 
 Thanks,
 
 Jon

  I wonder if you could so something like the slope of price vs the slope of RSI(2).  No idea... I'm not an expert...

  Just an idea...
 
 stock 	    
 
 3 day slope of close above 0
 3 day slope of RSI(2) below 0
 count(rsi(2) above 99,3) above 0
 stock is optionable
 add column 3 day slope of close
 add column 3 day slope of RSI(2)
 add column count(RSI(2) above 99,3)

  I found this post from TRO for a positive divergence filter
 
 rsi(2) below 25 and close above 1 and Average Volume(90) is above 300000 and volume above 300000 and close below close 2 days ago and rsi(2) above rsi(2) 2 days ago
