Just wondering if it's possible to run a scan for an MA crossover from 2 different scales, in this case MA of volume crossing over MA of price in the same frame.
I'm getting a number of visual crossovers but assuming can't run a scan because of the different parents/ scales, there aren't any actual crossovers - is there a workaround for this?
Any thoughts much appreciated.

No, you can't scan for crossovers of values on different scales.

How do you scan for a crossover of two scales when "there aren't any actual crossovers?"
Bruce might have some idea when he reutrns from holiday. Me, I can't think like a Borg. :)

Kidding. Not sure if Borgs have a sense of humor. :)

Tricky problems I always defer to the collective.

Well for the most part this can't be done unless the scales are fixed (always have the same value at the top and bottom of the scale). If the scales are fixed, you run some conversions to get the crossovers to work.
There is a workaround that will work for the current bar (but will not line up with apparent crossovers for previous bars) if you know the exact numbers of bars on the chart.
You can add multiple stochastics indicators to the same pane and scale as each other with a %K period of 1 and a stochastic period matching the number of bars on the chart. Change the data sources to use the indicators of interest instead of price. Then check for the stochastic indicators crossing.
