I would like to have an indicator that would graph all Bullish Engulfing candles, for all the SP-500 stocks, over time.  It seems Peter Worden showed a methed on a video but I can't find the video.  Any help would be appreciated if you know how to do this.

Add the Bullish Engulfing condition to your chart.  Then right click on the condition bubble and select Create Market Indicator.  Select the Standard and Poors 500 watchlist and click Next.  Select "Count Passing" then click Next.  Set the number of bars you want to calculate (how far back the market indicator will plot) and set the Recalc frequency.  Then click Finish.

I have a question on bullish engulfing PCF.  I made a PCF and ran a scan but the Bullish engulfing shows on stocks four days ago, I want to see them as today.

andy07,
The RealCode is relatively straightforward:

'# NewLowPeriod = userinput.integer = 10
If price.Low=price.MinLow(newlowperiod) AndAlso _
    price.Open(1)>price.close(1) AndAlso _
    price.Close>price.Open(1) AndAlso price.Open<price.Close(1) Then pass

I'm not seeing how this would identify engulfing patterns from four days ago. It doesn't preclude them, but it certainly doesn't check for them. Can you give some examples?

I'm not a candlestick guy, but the Bullish Engulfing Personal Criteria Formula from the Boolean PCFs for Candlestick Patterns topic doesn't check any prices beyond yesterday and today, so I'm not seeing how it would be identifying symbols from four days ago either unless your PCFs aren't updated.

How to create a Personal Criteria Forumula (PCF)

ABS(C1-O1)>(H1-L1)*0.50 AND
C1<O1 AND
C>O1 AND
O<C1
