Hi...I'm thinking of ways to scan for stocks that have been in a smooth uptrend over the last 12 months. Is it possible to write a PCF whereby:

 

1. high and low for month 2 > high and low for month 1

2. high and low for month 3 > high and low for month 2

etc. up to month 12?

Also...I'm sure you have been asked similar questions before so if you can point me to previous responses that would also be great.

Many thanks,

Piers

Please try the following daily Condition Formula.

MAXH21 > MAXH21.21 AND MINL21 > MINL21.21 AND MAXH21.21 > MAXH21.42 AND MINL21.21 > MINL21.42 AND MAXH21.42 > MAXH21.63 AND MINL21.42 > MINL21.63 AND MAXH21.63 > MAXH21.84 AND MINL21.63 > MINL21.84 AND MAXH21.84 > MAXH21.105 AND MINL21.84 > MINL21.105 AND MAXH21.105 > MAXH21.126 AND MINL21.105 > MINL21.126 AND MAXH21.126 > MAXH21.147 AND MINL21.126 > MINL21.147 AND MAXH21.147 > MAXH21.168 AND MINL21.147 > MINL21.168 AND MAXH21.168 > MAXH21.189 AND MINL21.168 > MINL21.189 AND MAXH21.189 > MAXH21.210 AND MINL21.189 > MINL21.210 AND MAXH21.210 > MAXH21.231 AND MINL21.210 > MINL21.231 AND MAXH21.231 > MAXH21.252 AND MINL21.231 > MINL21.252

The above actually checks for the 12 months in a row being up. If you only want 11 months in a row being up as to not reference the 13 month at all then you would take off the last two terms of the above formula.

MAXH21 > MAXH21.21 AND MINL21 > MINL21.21 AND MAXH21.21 > MAXH21.42 AND MINL21.21 > MINL21.42 AND MAXH21.42 > MAXH21.63 AND MINL21.42 > MINL21.63 AND MAXH21.63 > MAXH21.84 AND MINL21.63 > MINL21.84 AND MAXH21.84 > MAXH21.105 AND MINL21.84 > MINL21.105 AND MAXH21.105 > MAXH21.126 AND MINL21.105 > MINL21.126 AND MAXH21.126 > MAXH21.147 AND MINL21.126 > MINL21.147 AND MAXH21.147 > MAXH21.168 AND MINL21.147 > MINL21.168 AND MAXH21.168 > MAXH21.189 AND MINL21.168 > MINL21.189 AND MAXH21.189 > MAXH21.210 AND MINL21.189 > MINL21.210 AND MAXH21.210 > MAXH21.231 AND MINL21.210 > MINL21.231
