QUOTE (fastpitch) Previou day close < or = $9.95 but > than $2.00
Avg. daily volume last quarter > 100,000
Please try using the following Personal Criteria Formula as an EasyScan Condition:
C1 <= 9.95 AND C1 > 2 AND AVGV63 > 1000
QUOTE (fastpitch) Price to sales Ratio < or = to 8%
Please try using the following built in Fundamental System Criteria as an EasyScan Condition with the EasyScan Rangefinder set to Value: Min to .08 (or as close as you can get).
Price to Sales Ratio - Determined by dividing current stock price by revenue per share (adjusted for stock splits). Revenue per share for the P/S ratio is determined by dividing revenue for past 12 months by number of shares outstanding.
QUOTE (fastpitch) Revenue growth > or = to 12% year to year
Please try using the following built in Fundamental System Criteria as an EasyScan Condition with the EasyScan Rangefinder set to Value: 12 to Max (or as close as you can get).
Revenue Growth Rate Last 4 Qtrs - The difference between the latest fiscal year revenue and the previous fiscal year revenue, expressed as a percentage.
QUOTE (fastpitch) % institutional ownership > or = 30%
QUOTE (fastpitch) Return on invested capital > or = 10%
Revenue growth quarter vs quarter > or = 75%
EPS growth next 5 years > or = 15%
Mean recommendation > or = Hold
Recent quarter surprise % > or = 0 (differ between analysts forecasts and the quarterly earning a company actually reported.
These Fundamental Criteria are not built into TeleChart and TeleChart's Personal Criteria Formula Language does not have syntax for referencing other symbols or fundamentals. I do not know of a way to include them in an EasyScan. You may wish to look at some of the following built in Fundamental System Criteria as alternatives to some of these Conditions:
Earnings Growth Rate 5-Yr - The compound annual earnings per share 5-year growth rate. In looking for quality companies, well established companies of good size, this criterion is indispensable. The units are in percentages.
EPS Latest Qtr - Fully Diluted earnings per share from Total Operations, as taken from the latest 3-month ending period.
EPS Percent Change (Latest Q) - The percentage change in earnings per share from the comparable quarter a year before. Timely stocks will usually have strong recent quarterly earnings to validate the annual earnings strength. This reads in percentage.
EPS Percent Change (2nd Q back) - The percentage change in earnings per share from the comparable quarter a year before.
EPS Percent Change (3rd Q back) - The percentage change in earnings per share from the comparable quarter a year before.
EPS Percent Change (4th Q back) - The percentage change in earnings per share from the comparable quarter a year before.
EPS Percent Change (Latest Yr) - The percentage change in earnings for the latest 4 quarters compared to the preceding 4 quarters. An appropriate criterion to include in many types of screens. Also a common criterion to sort by, with the best earners on top.
