Hi Bruce,

 

Could you please tell me how to scan for stocks that are currently at 50day sma on daily OR within 1-3% of it . As you know 50 day sma is great support/resistance for most stocks. thank you!

A condition formula for the current price bar touching the 50 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

L <= AVGC50 AND AVGC50 <= H

A condition formula for the current price being within 1% of the 50 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

100 * (C / AVGC50 - 1) <= 1

A condition formula for the current price being within 3% of the 50 period simple moving average can be written as follows.

100 * (C / AVGC50 - 1) <= 3
