Trainer: I am unable to calculate my Personal Criteria formula. When I hit Databank: Update Personal Criteria I get "Syntax errors were forund in the following Personal Criteria: (Up stocks) Unable to update Personal Criteria.

Formula is: C > C1 AND > C2

What I would like is: C > C1 * 1.1 AND C2 * 1.02

Dear nking,

The formula that you have provided is not understood by the program. C>C1 and > C2 is missing a variable. (C>C1 is OK) but what is it that you want to be greater than C2?

Could you explain, using words, the pattern that you are looking for?

C > C1 * 1.1 AND C > C2 * 1.02 will return True when today's close is 10% higher than yesterday's close and also 2% higher than the close 2 days ago.

If that's not what you want, just tell us exactly what you're looking for.

C1 > (C2 * 1.05) AND C > (C1 * 1.02) AND V2 > (V1 * 5)

I would like to add Market Cap greater than 50M, (50,000,000,)to the above. The same may apply to eg: P/E, or items not listed in the PCF inventory clipboard. Thank you

TeleChart's Personal Criteria Formula Language does not have syntax for referencing other symbols or fundamentals.

You can use PCFs and the built in Fundamental System Criteria in the same EasyScan however. You may wish to review the following:

Disclaimer:  New User -.... 

How would I create a condition in an Easy Scan for an Outside Reversal. 

 

Yesterday's High is lower than today's high.  

Yesterdays Low is greater than today's low. 

Current price is higher than Yesterdays close and/or Current price is lower than yesterday's close.

 

H < (C*H)  

L > (C*L)

???? 

Any thoughts?

A Condition Formula where the current price is higher than the previous close would be:

L< L1 AND C1 < C AND H1 < H

A Condition Formula where the current price is lower than the previous close would be:

L< L1 AND C < C1 AND H1 < H

A Condition Formula where the current price is highor or low than the previous close would be:

L< L1 AND C <> C1 AND H1 < H
