I got around 13 results when using a filter on finviz. Then to narrow them down I used volatility filter(abv 5% this week) and ATR filter(over 5) separately on the results. I got 3 results with Volatility filter and 7 with ATR filter but none ot those 3 were in these 7 whereas they should have been because ATR is just a mathematical interpretation of volatility.


Is there any explanation for this where am i falling logically apart?


Pls help.
Indicators are so deceiving, always lagging. Trend lines & Calendars are the best.

You try just focusing on a mathematical outlook or a volatility one. Sometimes indicators don't match and you need to adjust to the market's environment. After choosing an outlook choose the one with better results.
F*** it we ball!

Don't you think you should try a simpler format for evaluating results?
I understand that you wanted to automate the evaluation in some way, but I think you're confused and I don't know what to tell you either...
