I would like to have a Formula PCF with the following parameters:
Volume Buzz => 300%
 
Thank you and goodbye.

Bruce will be along in a bit, but I'm not sure Volume Buzz is scannable. Sortable, yes, Scannable, don't think so. But I've been wrong once or twice before in my life. LOL.

There isn't a way to create this sort of condition as a Personal Criteria Formual. You can sort by Volume Buzz, but you can't use it as an EasyScan Condition.

After the market closes, the formulas would either be:

V >= 4 * AVGV100

Or:

V >= 4 * AVGV100.1

My original testing indicated that the first formula is correct, but follow-up testing by mdhuang would seem to indicate the second formula is correct.

Volume Surge vs. Volume Buzz

The two formulas do not generate any signal !

Doing a scan for this criteria during market hours will result in few, if any, hits. Running it half way through the day would require volume to be running at 8 times the regular volume.

Running it for Friday, the trading day before today, with the PCF V1>4*AvgV20 returned 57 items from the list of all US Common stocks. Running it against the SP500 returned no hits. Running it against the High Cap 1000 returned one hit

I would suggest you create multiple scans to run at different times during trading hours using this formula:

 

V >= 4 * AVGV100 * (hours/6.5) where hours = hours already passed for current trading day

 

For example, at 10AM, use this:

V >= 4 * AVGV100 * (0.5/6.5) 

At 12PM, use this:

V >= 4 * AVGV100 * (2.5/6.5) 

You can create multiple scans, for example, one per hours. Or have only one scan but modify it as time goes by during the day.
