I'm having an issue with syntax in this scan and hoped that one of the coding champions could help. I think that I have narrowed it to one of two lines of code. The problem lies either in this set phrase under /*my indicators*/ set{mymac%,close / ma(126)} or this line under /*criteria*/ mymac% crossed .8 from below.
The full scan is below, any assistance you can provide is appreciated

Fetcher[/*my indicators*/
set{myrange, high 52 week high / low 52 week low}
set{mymac%,close / ma(126)}
set{myslp, count( 7 day slope of PVI > -.01,2)}
set{mshares, shares outstanding *1,000,000}
set{maxshares, mshares * .0005}
set{myatr, count(ATR(10) > ATR(10) 20 day low, 2)}
set{mypvi, count(PVI > ma(PVI,20),2)}
set{mymo, count(momentum(10) > 0, 2)}
/*MoneyFlow RSI*/
set{up,count(close above close 1 day ago,1)}
set{down,count(close below close 1 day ago,1)}
set{pivot,pp}
set{MF, pivot * volume}
set{UPMF, MF * up}
set{PMF, sum(UPMF,10)}
set{DNMF, MF * down}
set{NMF, sum(DNMF,10)}
set{ratio, PMF / NMF}
set{MFI, 1 + ratio}
set{MFSI, 100 / MFI}
set{MFRSI, 100 - MFSI}
/*Criteria*/
Market is not otcbb
Market is not etf
close > 1
avg volume(90) above 250,000
myatr > 1
mypvi > 1
mymo > 1

Use "crossed above 0.8" in the second snippet

I clicked on it (thanks for making it clickable), made the change that mahkoh suggested, and the first syntax error was this line: set{myslp, count( 7 day slope of PVI > -.01,2)}

I'm far from a coding expert here but can you count how many days a slope of anything was above a certain number? I think I'll play with that and see what I come up with.

Okay, got it. You have a - sign in that line in front of the .01. I played around with PVI and the lowest number I got was 0. When I deleted that sign in your code the syntax error went away. It didn't show any other syntax errors but no stocks made it through the filter.

set{myslp, count( 7 day slope of PVI > -.01,2)}

Change -.01 to .01

Without changing anything, results are returned for 01/24/2020 and further back. Do these results not match what you were expecting?

@xarlor

That's odd. I just tried it again without changing anything and didn't get results for Thursday or Friday, (1/23 or 1/24) but did get them for Wednesday, 1/22, and before without any syntax errors. I am definitely NOT one of the coding champions here so if push5280 is still having problems with it then I don't know why but I hope they get them resolved.

@push5280, SF support has found errors in my code when I email it to them that I didn't see, so if you're still having problems that's what I'd recommend.

Apologies, I meant to say 01/22/2020 and further back. I do not get results for 1/23/2020 or 1/24/2020 either.

Do you mind explaining the 'max shares' component as well as the purpose of the filter's use of the 'PVI' ? Genuinely curious.
