Hi:

Is there a way to have a scan produce a prediction on price?

Thanks,
Yama

The trainers can't give setting, interpretation or investment advice.

If you have a specific algorithm in mind you wish to use to predict price, we might be able to help you implement it, but I am not aware of an already existing accurate algorithm for doing so (and I suspect most traders would contend that this type of holy grail indicator isn't possible).

That said, there are all sorts of Indicators that could be interpreted in a way that might be considered predicting price. For example, if you were to extend a Linear Regression Line into the future it would be possible to interpret this extension as a prediction of sorts based on past performance over the period covered by the Linear Regression (although the validity of this interpretation would be more than slightly suspect without significant caveats).
