Who Am I and Why Am I here

Greetings Pete!
Welcome. Exciting to see some new blood and chart interest flow into the site.

CANSLIM is interesting, got to first learn about it 10 years ago from the man himself in a canned presentation at an AAII meeting. Have intermittently used it’s principles. While it’s easy to independently get the key earnings data, they do rely on proprietary Comp Ratings and RS Ratings. There’s proxies that you can generate, but it’s all geared towards pedaling their service. But then, they put in the work so guess you can’t argue.

Your charts look like they are from Leaderboard or MarketSmith, do you have a membership in one or both? I did their trial LB membership a couple years ago and liked it but couldn’t justify the expense as I only intermittently relied upon it. Do you use any other charting program?

From that LB trial, one thing that struck me, they are fairly active in their trading. Positions changed a lot more often than I expected. Anticipated more buy-and-holding.

Will look at your other posts over today and see if I have anything to add.
