Hi,
I would like to create a condition using the Williams%R for a 10 day period of yesterday.
 
The condition is
Scan for stocks where daily Williams%R(10) for yesterday is less than or equal to -80
 
How can I do this? I tried charting the Williams%R(10) and making a scan out of it, but then it only scans for todays value.
 
 
Thank you,
 
Kind regards

Williams %R is just Stochastics minus 100. This means you could write your formula as:

STOC10.1.1 <= 20

Understanding Stochastics
PCF Formula Descriptions
Handy PCF example formulas to help you learn the syntax of PCFs!

You could also add a 1-Period Simple Moving Average with an Offset of 1 to the Williams %R indicator and click on the Moving Average instead of the %R to create the Condition.

Thank you, that was great help.

Is there a manual or handbook for conditions and their syntax?

Thanks again

The PCF Formula Descriptions topic mentioned in my original response contains a fairly comprehensive list of the syntax which is valid in the Personal Criteria Formula Language.
