Topic: 15 min candle after open
Posted: Friday, December 28, 2012 1:02:44 PM

Bruce - thank you.  I will give these pcf formulas a shot.  Regarding the %, the statement is probably better referenced as a true range (ex: a true range of a candle is $25 - $25.50 then 50% of that range is $25.25 - 50% being a fib number gives some importance)  The concept could be calculated for any % of a candle or range. 

Thank you again.

Sorry for not replying sooner.  I just came back to the idea.  Basically, a trading strategy is that if price action is over or under the first 15min candle provides some direction for trading long or short.  Over the first 15min candle is long and under short.  I would like to create a column within a watchlist that identifies this condition. 

Basically, it would identify price action over or under the Prior 15 min candle. 

based on 15 min candle:

Close higher than prior candle

Price lows are higher than prior 15 min candle (would be nice to have % of candle held: above 50%, or 2/3s of prior 15 min candle).

The inverse of these would also be true for short positions.

 

--PCF continuously confuse me or I would try to figure it out.  :D

Topic: PCF "or" statement - condition scan help
Posted: Friday, December 14, 2012 11:42:57 AM

I would like scans that tell me when price action is at a significant area (moving average, VWAP, etc.) and Stochastics are at an oversold/overbought condition.

Basically i would like a real-time scan of a watchlist that would display columns for the following (i can make columns for each, but would like a consolidated column for VWAP crossing; Moving average crossing, etc.)

I would like:

Price crossing up or down through VWAP (a single column)

Price crossing up or down through 5 sma (a single column) - ability to chage timeframes (5min most handy at this time)

Price crossing up or down through 15 sma (a single column) - ability to chage timeframes (5min most handy at this time - i understand this may require adjusting the condition parameters)

5sma crossing up or down through 15sma (a single column) - ability to chage timeframes (5min most handy at this time - i understand this may require adjusting the condition parameters)

50sma crossing up or down through 200sma (a single column) - ability to chage timeframes (daily most handy at this time - i understand this may require adjusting the condition parameters)

Overbought on 5min Stochs (14, 3, 3)

Oversold on 5min Stochs (14, 3, 3)

Possibly price crossing Pivot points: crossing above or below

I hope this is understandable enough to create conditions. My idea is to have one watchlist that scans conditions with minimal columns.
