Hi and Good Morning,

I use XMACD 12, 26, 9

I need a scan for the following criteria:

1. Fast line below slow line and both below the zero line, AND the first tick up of the histogram 

Thanks for your help as always.

Please try using the following Personal Criteria Formula as an EasyScan Condition:

XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 < XAVG(XAVGC12,9) - XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND XAVG(XAVGC12,9) < XAVG(XAVGC26,9) AND XAVGC12 - XAVGC26 - XAVG(XAVGC12,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26,9) > XAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 - XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9) AND XAVGC12.1 - XAVGC26.1 - XAVG(XAVGC12.1,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26.1,9) <= XAVGC12.2 - XAVGC26.2 - XAVG(XAVGC12.2,9) + XAVG(XAVGC26.2,9)

Thank you so much Bruce.

I also use TSV 5 with a XMA of 10

I would like some scans for the following:

1. TSV line below 10XMA

2. TSV line below 10XMA and 10XMA below zero line

3. TSV crossing down through 10XMA below zero line

You have been a great help!!

I'm going to assume from your question in TSV with MA scan that the TSV is Exponential.

QUOTE (Drchipshot)
TSV line below 10XMA

XAVG(TSV,5) < XAVG(TSV,10)

QUOTE (Drchipshot)
TSV line below 10XMA and 10XMA below zero line

XAVG(TSV,5) < XAVG(TSV,10) AND 9 * XAVG(TSV,10) < 4 * XAVG(TSV,5)

QUOTE (Drchipshot)
TSV crossing down through 10XMA below zero line

XAVG(TSV,5) < XAVG(TSV,10) AND XAVG(TSV1.1,5) >= XAVG(TSV1.1,10) AND XAVG(TSV,5) < 0

These scans  are so hepful, thank you again. While we are at it I do need a scan that would give me: 

1. stocks that are between their 13xma and their 23xma.

2. I use a channel with the formula: Channel(c,sqr((avgh100*avgh...)22period
Is there a way to scan for stocks that are near the lower channel line??

(XAVGC13 <= C AND C <= XAVGC23) OR (XAVGC23 <= C AND C <= XAVGC13)

See the ..., that means it's not the complete formula. You would need all of the settings from the Channel Plot to create a Personal Criteria Formula based on the Chanel Plot. You can Edit the Channel Plot to get these settings.

In addition to knowing the exact settings, any attempt at creating a formula for this would require an uambiguous objective definition of "near".

One possible technique that would not require knowing all of the settings is presented in Sort using envelopes, regression channels and Bollinger bands.
