The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

“Can the picks from this screen be obtained directly from SIPRO, without using GTR1?”

The short answer is No but you do need a paid subscription to SIPRO to obtain a password to
actually, get the picks to actually invest in the screen.

A longer answer: From SIP you can screen directly for price (in GTR aprc(1) > 5, use the
SIP Volume-Dollar Daily Avg 3m for the GTR adv(1,63) > 63
SIP also has the eps data (all SIP fields are indicated by the *.s format)
But GTR1 also has a data base of daily price for all the stocks which it uses to calculate
linear(1,tr(1,175),1,tr(1,200),1,tr(1,225)) top 25

You could of course use SIP for steps 1 thru 3 which typically results in around 65 picks and
then download the daily price data for those 65 stocks over the last 225 days into a spread sheet
and then calculate total returns for step 4 and step 5.

Or you could be thankful that Robbie has done all the work to reduce your effort by an order of
magnitude for free! And just use GTR1.
