Hello!
I need help with some very simple(?) PCF's:
- Stock close below 20 EMA yesterday and above 20 EMA today.
- Stock close above 20 EMA yesterday and below 20 EMA today.
Can you help me?
Thanks a lot
Monica

Please try the following:
Stock close below 20 EMA yesterday and above 20 EMA today:
C1 < XAVGC20.1 AND C > XAVGC20
Stock close above 20 EMA yesterday and below 20 EMA today:
C1 > XAVGC20.1 AND C < XAVGC20

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to scan when price moves across an EMA (for example 30 period), in either direction?
Thanks for your help,
Doug

You can just OR together a crossup formula with as crossdown formula.
(C > XAVGC30 AND C1 <= XAVGC30.1) OR (C < XAVGC30 AND C1 >= XAVGC30.1)
But I generally prefer the following form instead.
SGN(C - XAVGC30) <> SGN(C1 - XAVGC30.1)
