I can only write a fomulas that were given to me. I can not copy and paste them. I do not know if my spacing is correct. could tour please correct the syntax error on the spacing if in error for a J-hook pattern:

(((L - L20) / L20) > .10 AND (L2  <= L3 AND L1 <= L2 AND C >=0)

Jerry,

You merely need one more ending parenthesis at the end...  

... c >=0))

Hope this helps.

This is on the candlestick site:

 

((L1 = MINL4) OR (L2 = MINL4) OR (L3 = MINL4) ) AND
( (MAXC3 < MAXC4.3)) AND
( (H3 = MAXH15.4) OR (H4 = MAXH15.4) OR (H5 = MAXH15.4) OR (H6 = MAXH15.4) OR (H7 = MAXH15.4) ) AND (((MAXH4.3 - MINL4) / (MAXH4.3 - MINL21.3) > .23) AND ((MAXH4.3 - MINL4) / (MAXH4.3 - MINL21.3) < .62) ) AND
((AVGH3.5) > (AVGH3.8 ) AND (AVGH3.8 ) > (AVGH3.13) AND (AVGH3.13) > (AVGH3.18 ))

 

 

 

Thanks

Jerry,

I tried your pcf and got no hits, so it seems to be too restrictive. 

I use this fomula that I wrote, called, "J-Hook-Tight Breakout"

 

(Xavgc4-Xavgc4.1) >0 and
((Xavgc4.1-Xavgc4.2) <0 and
(Xavgc4.2-Xavgc4.3) <0)
or
(c1<c2 and 
c2<c3) 
and
(Xavgc4.3-Xavgc4.4) > 0 and 
(Xavgc35.1 - Xavgc35.9) >0
 
 
Furthermore, I add another condition called, "MA Exp 08 % Rise 6 DaysAgo". This requires the price to have been advancing nicely. I set this to rank above 72 percentile.
 
(Xavgc8.6-Xavgc8.11)/Xavgc8.11*100
 
Good luck to you.
 
Van
