Big,

PDO is one of those that you would like to find especially if you 
could find it in April and sell it in May and before it tanked on the 
22nd.

What I noticed was that it fell into a trend, albeit a short one. 

Question is how to do that and not to catch the ones that are highly 
volatile and tank the next day.

Several things I would play with. The HHV has a 260 period lookback. 
I would probably shorten that. I would probably up the initial stock 
price as well. $2 stocks are usualy being played/manipulated by the 
hucksters, so I would probably bump that number to $10. 

A good trend filter would also be nice to include. Several come to 
mind. Obviously the idea is going to be to jump on the trade early 
rather than late. Let me play with a few and see what looks good.

Finally, you are going to need a very good trailing stop. I think 
Andy just mentioned a good one but there are others.

Will get back to you with more in a bit.
