PowerRating)
showed up on our Laps Down 5% or More
List.  Concurrently, it also showed up on our 2-Period RSI below 2 list AND
had a PowerRating of 9.  Stocks that fall onto these lists have

shown positive returns, on average, over the next 1-day, 2-days, and 1-week
later.

 

DTPI had lapped down 21% from the previous
session’s close.  Also from point 1 on the chart below, DTPI’s 2-period RSI
was at 0.61, showing that selling may be overdone.  Also at point 2, DTPI
had a PowerRating of 9, which has outperformed the S&P 500 by a margin of 10.1
to 1 over the next 5 trading sessions.

Here is the Laps Down 5% or More list from the
close of 3/14/07:

All these signals made DTPI a strong buy at the
open of 3/15/07 (blue arrow).  Selling after 5 sessions would have yielded
a positive return of 6.1%.  From this example we can clearly see that
waiting for multiple indicators to line up can work greatly in our favor.
