 Hello everyone, I am a newbie to Stockfinder but I work with vb.net professionally so the learning curve is not that steep for me. Here is my question:

 The default Bearish Doji Star rule filter did not catch SYMM (Feb. 8/2010) close so I created my own simplified Bear Star Doji rule as follows

 If price.close = price.Open AndAlso _
    price.Close(1) > price.Close(2) AndAlso _
    price.Close(2) > price.Close(3)  Then pass

I'd like to add volume >= 100000 condition to the above statement and according to the RealCode documentation, I should just add

If price.close = price.Open AndAlso _
    price.Close(1) > price.Close(2) AndAlso _
    price.Close(2) > price.Close(3) AndAlso _
    Volume.Last >= 100000  Then pass

and it should work, but it is not working. How can I fix this?

Thank you,

Burak

I don't encounter any problems when using your Rule on my computer. Keep in mind that Volume in StockFinder is reported in blocks of 100 shares.

Hi Bruce,

I found the "Volume Greater Than Value"  predefined rule , and it worked fine. :)

Could you help me with the following issue please? I posted this on StockTrader forum and didn't want to cross post it here too.

----------------------------

 I haven't quite figured out how to find a channeling stock using RealCode. 

 Could you

a) tell me how I can set RealCode to return a list of channeling stocks

 or

b) tell me a stock that is in a channel as we speak

 Thank you,

 Burak

The trainers can't give setting, interpretation or investment advice. In general, this means I can help you learn how to implement an algorithm that you have developed or that already exists in StockFinder, but can develop or suggest a particular algorithm for you.

The Bouncing Stocks video gives one technique for finding stocks of this type and the channelling stocks topic presents another.
