Topic: Scalping with 10/20 EMA Crossovers PCF needed
Posted: Friday, November 23, 2007 12:09:48 PM

If anyone else is reading this post apart from me, then for your benefit, a better formula is:

ABS(XAVGC10/XAVGC20)

Use Sort By this indicator in real time and you can spot EMA crosses much quicker.

Hey guys don't bother answering this, its pretty simple as i realised its just XAVGC10-XAVGC20, then just sort by that.

not worth your time this one

Hi Wizards of TC,

I need a pcf for a 10 day EMA, but unlike other pcf's in the discussion this needs to produce a boolean number as I need to make a custom indicator from it. Can you help?

Basically, I want to be able to use Sort By in Realtime (5m) to identify shares where 10EMA just crossed 20EMA. It's a shame we can't use EasyScan on such a time frame, hence will have to go for Sort By.

I figured one way to do this is to create a Custom indicator which will have some kind of joined formulas for both 10EMA and 20EMA, possibly equating to a number of above or below zero or something like that that I can sort by later (I haven't figured this out yet, but I'm sure it can be done).

As you are just the geniuses in this kind of sphere, can you help me bring this idea into life?

Hey Bruce,

Thanks once again. Yes massive formulas is a challenge. Do you guys use visual basic or something similar to help you answer the queries. Otherwise it can take you quite a while to make one and then check it and stuff.

I'l check out the link as well.

Hey Bruce,

I can't believe you went all this way to help me. Thank you so much!!!

I will check it out later on today (late night your time) and let you know what happens.

I appreciate your help with this.

Hey Bruce,

Thats exactly what I am after. I dont need to find out the exact value, all I am looking for is to find the lowest point on that indicator, for that share, in the last 6 or less months.

Sorting by change seems to deliver something like this, but I am not confident if thats a right way to do it.

Any ideas?

Hey Bruce,

I appreciate your concerns. Do you know another way of finding out the lowest value that I am looking for?

I had a play around with sorting by 'change' in the 'actual value'. Do you think that could be a more intelligent alternative? and if yes, how exactly would you recommend to do it?

Hi,

I have the following PCF for Bollingerband bandwidth: 

4*SQR(ABS(C^2+C1^2+C2^2 +C3^2+C4^2+C5^2+C6^2+C7^2 +C8^2+C9^2+C10^2+C11^2+C12^2 +C13^2+C14^2+C15^2+C16^2+C17^2+C18^2+C19^2-20*AVGC20^2)/19)/AVGC20

What I need help with is to create a percent true indicator and an Easy Scan that would show me the lowest value for this in the last 6 months.

I want the EasyScan to find me stocks with the lowest value they hit on that formula in the last 6 months. 
I have already tried sorting by this formula, but it doesnt give me what I want.

Also, if its gonna be a gigantic PCF, can you also make me another one for 3 months please, to save time.

Any help?

Thank you guys

Hey Craig,

How do you define it Craig?
