Bruce,

Is it possible using PCFs/EasyScan with TC2000 PC version, to scan for stocks where a price bar moves above a previous bar which has one to x bars in between that are lower than the first (previous) bar?  Basically price moves up (1st bar), dips one or more bars, then closes above price of 1st bar.

Thanks,

Ed

Is there a limit to x?

Does the price need to go above the high or the close of x bars ago?

x can be one to ten, and price needs to close above close x bars ago.

Please try the following Condition Formula.

(C > C2 AND C1 < C2) OR (C > C3 AND MAXC2.1 < C3) OR (C > C4 AND MAXC3.1 < C4) OR (C > C5 AND MAXC4.1 < C5) OR (C > C6 AND MAXC5.1 < C6) OR (C > C7 AND MAXC6.1 < C7) OR (C > C8 AND MAXC7.1 < C8) OR (C > C9 AND MAXC8.1 < C9) OR (C > C10 AND MAXC9.1 < C10) OR (C > C11 AND MAXC10.1 < C11)

Looks to be doing what I'm wanting.  Pretty clever using the MAX cmd.

Thank you Bruce...

Ed
