Topic: price within 1% of 8ema

Thank you so much, Bruce!

Topic: price within 1% of 8ema
Posted: Tuesday, May 29, 2018 2:26:19 PM

I am trying to create a formula for price within 1% of the 8 exponential moving average.  The system keeps saying I have an error and a ( is expected at position 7.  This doesn't make sense to me.  Can you tell me where I've gone wrong?  

C<(XAVG8*1.01) and C>(XAVG8*.99)

How do I set exact numbers for the high and low when using Fibonacci retracement tool?  It seems like I have to click and drag, and then it&#39;s never exact unless I get lucky.

Bruce,

Thank you very much for your help.  You have a knack for finding every mistake I make -- you not only patiently answer the question you think I intend to ask, but also provide an answer for what I did indeed ask.  Yes I didn&#39;t want to ask about dollar volume; it was supposed to be "1 million shares".

Thank you for all you do and sorry to have created extra work for you!  Your answer helped me a lot!

Have a good one

Ellen

How do you say "average daily volume over the past 30 days is greater than $1mil"?  Do you have to create a condition that adds v+v1+v2+v3 etc, all the way up to v29, and then divide by 30?  Or does "avgv30" create the same answer?  I want to create the PCF which states volume over a period of time and not just at one point of time in the past.

Thank you for your help

Ellen

Topic: Help with use of parentheses
Posted: Tuesday, February 18, 2014 3:16:04 PM

Thanks, Bruce!  I understand everything.  I didn&#39;t know that you have to delete and re-add to reflect the changes.

Is there anything besides the PCF examples and the webinars that would help me learn this language?  It is hard to understand "ranges", for example, - like if you want to ask for certain criteria "within" the past x number of days. This type of thing isn&#39;t covered much.

I&#39;m trying to create a PCF for high volume and price going up at the same time, within the last 4 weeks.  I&#39;m getting confused on the use of parentheses, as my scan is not catching some stocks it should be catching.  Can you tell me if the parentheses are correct?  I am looking for weekly volume that is at least 2.8 times greater than the previous week, with close this week being at least 5% higher than close of last week.  Here is what I&#39;ve written:

(v>avgv50.1*2.8 and c>c1*1.05) or (v1>avgv50.2*2.8 and c1>c2*1.05) or (v2>avgv50.3*2.8 and c2>c3*1.05) or (v3>avgv50.4*2.8 and c3>c4*1.05) or (v4>avgv50.5*2.8 and c4>c5*1.05)

Thanks for your help!

 

Topic: PCF question
Posted: Tuesday, January 21, 2014 11:50:19 AM

Bruce, I&#39;m trying to write a PCF to find stocks whose volume is greater than or equal to 1.5 times the 50ma of volume, plus whose close today is greater than close yesterday.  This is what I have written - is it correct? v>=avg50.1*1.5 and c>c1

Thanks for your help

Bruce I left out a digit in my original post.  It&#39;s (maxh60.1/minl60.1)<=minl60.1*1.15
