What are we doing here?
RATS is a program written using Python. Its job is to go through a list of stocks each day and look for specific patterns in a mathematical fashion. When those patterns are found, then signals are provided. Those signals are buy, hold, and sell. There is also the absence of a signal, which is in essence, do not hold.
Buys
The primary objective of the buy signal is to understand when to get in to a position in the market. We utilize RATS to know when this should occur. All of our suggestions are on a daily basis, allowing you plenty of time each day to get into position.
Holds
We are not currently highlighting holds. As it stands right now, we are working on timing the buys and sells. There will come a day that we will also publish information on what you should be holding. If you look closely, though, you will find some hold information in several of the posts.
Sells
While a sell signal could be used for going short a stock, we utilize the sell signal to let us know when to get out of a position. These allow us to maximize our gains, while trimming inevitable market drops.
