I would greatly appreciate some help.
I'm trying to create a scan to find stocks that:
1) Currently have the 10 day price moving average > 50 day price moving avg > 150 day price moving average > 200 day price moving avg
2) Volume spike: (V / AVGV50) >= 4.0
3) Volume over 100k per day

Also, would like to see relative rank above 70
(C - AVGC135 ) / AVGC135

The scan I set up doesn't seem to be providing these ideas.

Thank  you in advance for your help.

The first three requirements could be combined into a single Personal Criteria Formula:

Handy PCF example formulas to help you learn the syntax of PCFs!

AVGC10 > AVGC50 AND AVGC50 > AVGC150 AND AVGC150 > AVGC200 AND V >= 4 * AVGV50 AND V > 1000

You would need to use this PCF as an EasyScan Condition and then use your other PCF as an EasyScan Condition in the same EasyScan with the Rangefinder set to Rank: 70 to Max. A slightly shorter version of the formula for your fourth requirement is given below:

Using EasyScan to find stocks that meet your own criteria

C / AVGC135 - 1
