What do you do when a certain stock keeps popping in all your scans and you've already eyeballed the stock and thought it was no good. Since it keeps popping up could this mean it might be worth considering?

Has the stock been trading recently?

I've had that a couple of times in AmiBroker and then discovered that the stock hadn't traded for a few days, so the same signal condition kept appearing every day.

Cheers,
GP

always a good idea to include a date of last bar into your scans to exclude non traded tickers.

Reckon GP's picked it----I'd say its probably not trading.

Can't imagine this coming up in any scan unless looking for biggest percentage fall in one day.After their project update, the price went down from 0.57 to 0.38.Enough said I think.Since then a director has resigned.You'd need to be brave or :screwy: to buy into BTX, in my view of course.Have been known to be wrong more than once this year :)
