Tried setting up the Personal Criteria Formula to search for signficant
volume and price changes over the last 10 days as outlined by Sir Methodical. When I do, I always get negative values when testing it.

The formula given was (avgV10/avgV50.10)*(((C-C10)/C10)-1)*100

After trying several times I came up with a formula which gives me
positive values but am not sure it is pertinent. Would appreciate
your comments.

(avgV10/avgV50.10)*(((C/C10)-1)*100)

Bruce and I cannot make sense of the '-1' part of the formula. Try this, it should work as he describes:

(AVGV10/AVGV50.10)*((C/C10)-1)

If the stock was up in the last 10 days, the result will be a positive number.
