Default Trading Sequence

I have questions on how you manage to pick the stock to trade out of so many.
The challenge I find is to move fast enough after the market opens.
I tend to miss the move.

Let's see if I get thie sequence right, I need a check list.....
What I learn from your webinar last night is:

Run the largest percentage move scan.
Check the chart
I have a PC and a laptop, I can have maximum 6 charts to watch on my PC.
Have the order ready on the laptop with IB.

Would this work?
I really like your system, and hope I can manage to find the right stock to trade at the right time.

Thanks again Ken.

Great question; I manually scan through hundreds of charts, clicking on each one for a second or two; then adding alerts for those that have the best patterns, so I can follow them.

To spot most-volatiles, I look at a variety of sources each morning, including marketwatch.com, cnbc (cable tv), briefing.com, esignal "Ctrl-L" leaderboard for percent gain/loss stocks in realtime, bigcharts.com, stockcharts.com and more..
