Many ways to trade the significant move concept
The basic concept is that a move of certain magnitude in a given time frame signals something about possible future direction. The concept allows you to narrow the trading universe to a small number of stocks with probability of making move. It offers a way to time entry on precipitation of certain moves.
Now here are couple of other things you can try:
1 A 25% plus move in a month
2 A short system based on stocks making significant move likely to revert
3 A quarterly move of 25% or more from a low
4 One day significant move
5 First significant move up or down in a stock over its entire trading life span
6 First significant move in earnings/sales or a significant move in earnings/sales compared to 4 or 8 quarters.
7 A cluster of significant moves in short period e.g 3 or more 5% plus moves on high volume in a month.
There are many ways to play the significant moves. Some of them will give you trading systems with significantly better results than ' Double Trouble'.

I'm learning oh so much from your daily posts. Thank you so much for what you unselfishly share. You must be a very good person to be around.
Picked up ALTH this morning early, up 5% already. My question on one such as this, how long and how tough would you have to be to ride it till it is truly exhausted? When is the getout point?
Thanks.
I don't know how high ALTH will go, I would trail with a stop.
