Hello.  How do I create a condition calling for today's MACD to be 25% less than the MACD for 20 days ago?  What do I select when I Create Scan Condition?  Moving Down %?  Periods = 20?  Percent < ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi Andeso55,

The Moving Down % condition does not appear to be working as intended in TC2000 right now.  I wrote you a formula to find the percentage move down in MACD you're requesting.

Here's the Personal Criteria Formula that describes the behavior you're looking for:

XAVGC12-XAVGC26 <= (XAVGC12.20-XAVGC26.20)*.75

 

This formula can be used to create a PCF Condition that can then be used as part of an EasyScan or as a Sort column for a WatchList.  I'm not sure how familiar you are with the process of creating a PCF, so let me know if you need help implementing.

Best,

Julia
