It is possible to scan a list of stocks for marubozus at the end of a day? What criteria would be needed, if it is indeed possible? Thanks.

A marubozu is a large japanese candle stick that have little or no wick. They can be either clear or filled. in other words, they represent a day when there was a large movement in the stock, but again, no wick, meaning the stock didn't go in a direction and retrace by the end of the day. Can you help me? Thanks GGL

ggloydsr,
Please try the following:

Body is at least 95% of the entire candle:

ABS(C - O) >= .95 * (H - L) AND H > L

You can adjust the percent as desired by changing the .95. You may wish to review the following:
