Seems #DDAmanda finds stocks after they break out, which then requires pumping and waiting late, prepping for the next early.
I've never dissected the software on this specific program but I know quite a lot about stock screeners (that's what DDAmanda is) and the writing of code.
In fact, anyone can build their own or just copy someone else's. lol
There are two main components to a stock screener...
(1) Web scraping (2) Technical (or fundamental) indicators. The software pulls the data from #1 then matches it against a pre-set data base.
The people who buy this don't know they can copy and paste the algorithm for free. lol
