Hi all,

I am new to SF and was hoping someone could help me code this. I am trying to find stocks that have been trending below ma20 for at least 3 to 4 weeks and now the stock over last few days has made a sharp increase above ma20, to lets say ma50 or ma40...

the idea is, that if its been trending below ma20 for a while and has now moved up sharply, the stock is probably going to make a quick short term move up.

So, its below ma20 for several weeks, then pops sharply above ma 20 and the idea is that you want to buy the next retace, if at all possible to code the last retrace back to ma 20.

thank you all in advance.

Larry

Something simple to start with:

Fetcher[
show stocks where close < MA(20) between 10 and 60 days ago
and close > MA(40) in the last 10 days
and close < MA(20)
]

Snappy- I think your first line because of the way it's worded is only picking up stocks between prices of 10 and 60 rather than days? Check me on that though...

Here is the first part of request and is missing the 2nd part where you wish to code the subsequent retrace.
Used 10 days = 2 weeks for below ma(20) ---- change to any variable you wish
*/

set{c1, count(close 1 day ago < ma(20) 1 day ago,10)}
c1 > 9 and do not draw c1
draw ma(20)
low crossed above ma(20)
volume 1 day ago > 12340
low > 10
