Hi,

I'm new to TeleChart. I've been watching several of the introductory videos and they have been very helpful. My understanding of EasyScan's is that one keeps adding criteria to further winnow down a list of stocks. Is it possible to have say 2 criteria, either of which would cause a stock to be included in the resulting list? For example, if I wanted to create a watch list of all stocks where either the 10 day moving average is crossing above the 40 day moving average OR where the RSI is moving from below to above the 20 line. Could I get these all in one watch list?

Thank you,

EasyScan uses the AND convention. However, you can write PCF's using OR, and then include them as conditions of an EasyScan.

You might want something like:

((AVGC10.1<AVGC40.1)AND(AVGC10>AVGC40)) OR ((RSI30.9.1<20) AND (RSI30.9>20))

This is assuming your RSI period was 30 and the average period was 9. Change the formula to match your RSI settings.
