Trying for hourly PCF where hour .1 was over 15 sto and now hour 0 is greater than hour .1, but not greater than 20. I was working with this basic formula for crossing over the 20, but I can't seem to get this other formula to work. STOC14.3.1 < 20 AND STOC14.3.0 >= 20

Assuming you are interested in the %K of Simple Stochastic 14,3, please try the following (making sure to set the Time Frame of the Condition Formula to Hourly):

15 <= STOC14.3.1 AND STOC14.3.1 < STOC14.3 AND STOC14.3 <= 20

Bruce, This isn't quite working, its giving me some stocks where the current hourly sto is over 20. here is what it looks like 15 <= STOC14.3.1 AND STOC14.3.1 < STOC14.3.0 AND STOC14.3.0 <= 20

It is possible that your Stochastic is Exponential instead of Simple. If so, the formula would be:

15 <= XAVG(STOC14.1.1,3) AND XAVG(STOC14.1.1,3) < XAVG(STOC14,3) AND XAVG(STOC14,3) <= 20

I cannot reproduce this. I only get 24 stocks total currently returning true in the US Common Stocks WatchList and absolutely none of them have an hourly Simple Stochastic 14,3 %K above 20.
