How can I write a PCF to identify when the 2MA has crossed-over (up or down-through) the 8MA?

If both moving averages are simple:

SGN(AVGC2 - AVGC8) <> SGN(AVGC2.1 - AVGC8.1)

You would need to change the AVGC to an XAVGC if that moving average is exponential instead.

Hi this condition looks good

I&rsquo;m new to TC2000 how would you pipe the results of this condition into a second condition that would check for volume 50% above average 30 day volume.

Thx Dan R

You could create a single Condition Formula by using an AND:

SGN(AVGC2 - AVGC8) <> SGN(AVGC2.1 - AVGC8.1) AND V >= 1.5 * AVGV30

Or you could create a Condiiton Formula for the Volume:

V >= 1.5 * AVGV30

And include both Condition Formulas as EasyScan Conditions in the same EasyScan.
