If your averages are simple try one of these:
10sma xup 20sma
AVGC10>AVGC20 AND AVGC10.1<AVGC20.1
10sma xdown 20sma
AVGC10<AVGC20 AND AVGC10.1>AVGC20.1
10sma touching 20sma
AVGC10=AVGC20
If your averages are exponential put an XAVG wherever you see an AVG above.

Since AVGC10=AVGC20 or XAVGC10=XAVGC20
is unlikely.
You may want to try sorting by:
AVGC10-AVGC20
(difference)
(AVGC10/AVGC20*100)-100
(percent difference)
The values closest to zero will be averages that are close.

Diceman,
why would you say avg 20 and avg 10 are unlikely ???

Realize when you see moving averages cross on a chart
you are connecting data points with a line. Even though
it appears they "touch" it is unlikely that the values will be
exactly the same. If you think about it, to generate a "cross"
one must be higher than the other.
I looked at the 7070 stocks in the all stocks watchlist and only
one VKI is true for AVGC10 equals AVGC20.
There are about 50 other true stocks but they are faulty.
The have their price frozen or some type of trading halt.
They aren't real tradable's.
RBNC is one example.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If we look at XAVGC10 equals XAVGC20 there is only one stock
true and it is also a faulty stock.
It is simply too rare for a 10 day and 20 day average to be
exactly the same value.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think that sorting for "close" would be more useful.
Thanks

Sorry for the mis-understanding........
I always meant when they cross........
not to be the same......
Thanks

As in " THEY JUST CROSSED "
Thanks

This from Craigs post is
"just crossed":
"If your averages are simple try one of these:
10sma xup 20sma
AVGC10>AVGC20 AND AVGC10.1<AVGC20.1
10sma xdown 20sma
AVGC10<AVGC20 AND AVGC10.1>AVGC20.1"
(the 10 is > then 20 today and
was below yesterday)
(the 10 is < then 20 today and
was above yesterday)
Also view the link in his post.
There are more equations under
the video.
Thanks
