Hi,

I would like help creating a PCF for the following:
-Price crosses up through the 26 simple moving average on a weekly chart.

While running my scans at the end of each day on a weekly chart, I want to know when the price breaks the 26MA.

Thanks,

Au197

C > AVGC130 AND C1 < AVGC130.1

Au197,
Apsll's formula takes into account all of the days during the period. If you need the formula to match the Chart (which only uses one close out of every 5-Trading Days on a Weekly Chart), you may wish to try the following Personal Criteria Formula:

25 * C > C5 + C10 + C15 + C20 + C25 + C30 + C35 + C40 + C45 + C50 + C55 + C60 + C65 + C70 + C75 + C80 + C85 + C90 + C95 + C100 + C105 + C110 + C115 + C120 + C125 AND 25 * C5 <= C10 + C15 + C20 + C25 + C30 + C35 + C40 + C45 + C50 + C55 + C60 + C65 + C70 + C75 + C80 + C85 + C90 + C95 + C100 + C105 + C110 + C115 + C120 + C125 + C130
