I want to write an easyscan that includes criteria at two different chart timeframes.  The scan is to look for stocks which have a stochastic crossover on a daily chart, and stochastics on the weekly chart that are going up.  The first criterion is already in the program, but the latter has me stumped; I also don't know how to integrate them both in one scan.

It is fairly straightforward to mix time frames in an EasyScan in TC2000 version 12.4. Each of the EasyScan Conditions in the Edit tab of the EasyScan has its own TimeFrame setting. You can adjust this TimeFrame setting by clicking on the EasyScan Condition in the Edit tab of the EasyScan.

The original TimeFrame used for the EasyScan should be based on the condition as it was created. For example, if you click on a stochastic indicator on a weekly chart and select Create Scan Condition, the default time frame of that condition will be weekly.

Create Conditions from Your Chart (5:25)

You can select Add to an Existing WatchList or Scan when you are done creating a condition this way to add the condition to any EasyScan which is currently visible in the layout.

Thanks.  How do I set up the scan to look for only those stocks whose weekly stochastics are rising (i.e. this week's sochastic is reater than that two weeks ago)?

Change the time frame too weekly.

Click on the stochastics indicator on the chart and select Create Scan Condition.

Choosing Moving Up Net from the Condition drop-down menu.

Set the Period to 2 (to compare the current week to 2 weeks ago) and the Net Change > setting to 0.
