Topic: PCF for vwap over 5 days in multiple (if poss) or single time frame
Posted: Monday, May 23, 2011 1:39:16 PM
Hi Bruce,

can you think of a formula that would show me stocks with rising vwap over 5 days in multiple time frames, or is daily only option ? 

Thanks,
Al  PS. did I give you enough info/critera ? let me know
Topic: MACDH condition trigger off of 2nd trough
Posted: Wednesday, September 22, 2010 1:39:32 PM
Hi Mike,  
great meeting you a few weeks ago. While I'm learning the program, would you mind helping me create a condition? I'd like to go off MACDH. From the bottom of a trough (below zero line) in the histogram, when momentum begins to fade, there is a next bar that is not as far down, just a little shorter than the steepest/deepest histogram bar. I often use that as part of many tools to use as an entry point for a trade. Also, the one trough is often not alone.. it might not cross over the zero-line but continue going lower again, before resolving to the upside of the zero-crossing... as often does on the upside as well, which I could use for finding short entries too. But let's start with the long side & I could always work it opposite once I know the configuration for troughs, then crests would be easy for me. please let me know if that was enough to describe what I'm wanting to create. Thanks

Dear Bruce, I'm also quite visual, so putting these questions into text for me will tax your patience, but here's what I'm hoping to create.  I'd like a pcf that will identify stocks that are about to enter into an uptrend (higher highs & higher lows). The stock will have a low, then test that low successfully by then taking out significant resistance on the upside. I suppose we can define what is significant resistance...perhaps 20 bars?? I'd like to see the 200 period moving avg flattening out. I'd like to see the 5 period m.a., trending up through the 20 period m.a., and the 20 above or maybe better, moving up through the 50. 

If any of these parameters are in conflict or don't make sense, please let me know; I'm not real good at describing what I see on a chart that works ideally for me, but I know it when I see it. Thanks so much,

Al

Hi Bruce,

I'm a Gold customer for Telecharts 2000; would like to use your formula created for  "Sambro" recently...

when I paste this in there is an indication of syntaxt error.. can you help please? I don't know what or where the "realcode editor" is in the program or if at all in TC2000.   thanks!!!

Topic: pcf for my criteria
Posted: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 4:34:10 PM
Hi Bruce,

thanks so far...    ...low vol price pulling back would be between 3-7 bars with vol less than previous 7 days and price less than high from the same previous 7 days.

thanks!

thanks!
Topic: pcf for my criteria
Posted: Wednesday, May 20, 2009 3:12:58 PM
Hi,
I'd like a pcf that will include:
average daily vol greater than 1 million shares
chart has a rising 200 day m.a.
chart has a rising 50 day m.a.
shows low volume price pulling back to the 20 day m.a. over the last 5 days ( 5 for example that I can change...) or possibly the 5 day m.a. instead as an option

thank you so much!!!
