I bumped into this little piece of code while looking at some thinkscript this weekend, and thought this would be easily done in SF. The basic idea is that one goes long when the stock crosses above the upper band of the "Neutral Zone" (and no, not the one between us and the Romulans). One exits the long position when it crosses back below. Same could be done on the flip side, but I would want to see if the stock were above the 200 day or not before doing this. Anyway, I chose AAPL as the demonstration stock just for fun.

How would you modify this to screen for stocks that are close to breaking into the buy zone?

Possibly add the following lines
high above NZU
close below NZU
That should show you stocks that briefly crosses above but closed a little below the Upper Neutral Zone line.

Something new to play with. Wowo!!!
Has anyone tested this one to see how it might have performed in 2008 or 2002 or even 2011.
Thanks

That was going to be my next question. What is the exit trigger code?

In my observation I've notice his method works well because it tends to cut looses rapidly while capturing maximum price action. I've tried using NZU as an exit criteria but it does not seem to work. Has anyone figured out the exit? if so, please post.

Could this be incorporated into Kevin's filter?

To use a cross below the Upper NZ as an exit, you need to put the full code into the exit trigger, like so:
set{overbought,70}
set{upperNZ, 55}
set{lowerNZ, 45}
set{oversold, 30}
set{OB1, RSI(34) - overbought}
set{OS1, RSI(34) - oversold}
set{NZU1, RSI(34) - upperNZ}
set{NZL1, RSI(34) - lowerNZ}
set{OB2, OB1 /100}
set{OS2, OS1 / 100}
set{NZU2, NZU1 / 100}
set{NZL2, NZL1 / 100}
set{OB3, close * OB2}
set{OS3, close * OS2}
set{NZU3, close * NZU2}
set{NZL3, close * NZL2}
set{OB, close - OB3}
set{OS, close - OS3}
set{NZU, close - NZU3}
set{NZL, close - NZL3}
close below NZU
Unless you define NZU in the exit trigger, it doesn't know what you are talking about.

How come I cannot see the NZL on the chart? How do I resolve this issue?
Fetcher[
Close is above $20
Average Volume is above 2000000
close crossed above nzl 4 day ago
set{overbought,70}
set{upperNZ, 55}
set{lowerNZ, 45}
set{oversold, 30}
set{OB1, RSI(34) - overbought}
set{OS1, RSI(34) - oversold}
set{NZU1, RSI(34) - upperNZ}
set{NZL1, RSI(34) - lowerNZ}
set{OB2, OB1 /100}
set{OS2, OS1 / 100}
set{NZU2, NZU1 / 100}
set{NZL2, NZL1 / 100}
set{OB3, close * OB2}
set{OS3, close * OS2}
set{NZU3, close * NZU2}
set{NZL3, close * NZL2}
set{OB, close - OB3}
set{OS, close - OS3}
set{NZU, close - NZU3}
set{NZL, close - NZL3}
draw OB on plot price
draw OS on plot price
draw NZU on plot price
draw NZL on plot price
and do not draw MA(200)
and do not draw MA(50)
and do not draw MA(20)
