This was my attempt at turning this scanc1/c2>1.04 and v>3*avgv50.2 and v1 >=200000, into an Easy Scan that would show me any stock that met this criteria over the last 40 days. I only get one stock to return. Can't understand what's not working.

I would do it for 1 day add a 40 period simple average  and check to see if its positive.

 

 

Thanks

You can put parentheses around each section to get your formula working the way I expect you want it to work. For example, the first line would be as follows.(c1/c2>1.04 and v>3*avgv50.2 and v1 >=200000) OR

But the technique diceman is suggesting of using the Condition Formula as the Boolean Formula in a Custom PCF % True Indicator with the Period set to 40 and the Average Type set to Simple is going to be better.

You can just click on the indicator and select Create Scan Condition to check for the Custom PCF % True Indicator having a value greater than 0 to create the condition.
