I am trying to construct a PCF to find issues where the tsv is coming into a low price reversal area. I think i need to first find the low area and then with a second PCF find where the TSV swings positive up through the moving avg. This is my first attempt at the first formula:

TSV18.1 <= 0 AND TSV18 < 0 ,where .1 is the look back period

I am assuming the above formula will yield issue where the TSV is low and heading lower. I would use additional filtering to weed out unwanted issues.

After running this PCF I would save the results in a watch list and then run the second PCF.

I am not certain how to construct the second PCF to reveal the move from below the moving avg to above the moving avg. Can you help me there also.

Your PCF above will find stocks where the last two days TSV18 was below 0.

I read your description... try this for me:

MIN(TSV18,10)=MIN(TSV18,100) AND TSV18<0

Look at the charts found with this and tell me if it fits what you want better.

To find TSV18 crossing its own moving averages try the PCF below. I use a 20-bar simple MA. You can change the 20 in the formula below to match the period of the MA you are using on your charts:

TSV18>AVG(TSV18,20) AND TSV18.1<AVG(TSV18.1,20)

I ran the suggested formula against the entire stock list and it resulted in ~700 true. As you commented it seems to fit better. I see stocks heading lower. But the TSV is still above zero for some, one can often stay in a stock if the TSV is at zero. So if I find issues below TSV zero I can look for the turn. By additional filter for good fundamentals I can see which have the best chance to change direction. When i view the stochastic i can see it is also in a potential reversal area.

What i have found is that a stock with good fundamentals can pull back into a buy zone and the weekly TSV and Stochastic clearly show that , see KOMG on 10/14, 10/21 and 11/18/05.

Would you please state the syntax so i am clear.

My first formula does not allow the TSV today to be above 0:

MIN(TSV18,10)=MIN(TSV18,100) AND TSV18<0

My second formula looks for crossovers and, if you don't use it in cunjuction with the first, will allow the cross to occur above 0.

TSV18>AVG(TSV18,20) AND TSV18.1<AVG(TSV18.1,20)

This version will make sure the crossover is below 0 (so you don't have to use it along with the first one)


TSV18>AVG(TSV18,20) AND TSV18.1<AVG(TSV18.1,20) AND TSV18<0
