I can't get higher closes and higher volumne to work consistently.

I've tried PCF of (C > C1) AND (C1 > C2) AND (C2 > C3)

also
((C - C1) > 0) and .....

The resutls when combined with similar PCF for volume does not produce correct results

Vol ex:
(V > V1) AND (V1 > V2)....

Results include some stocks with lower close and some with lower vol.

When creating the PCF the test seems to indicate the correct result. When combined in an easy scan with the vol. I get inconsistent results.

I am guessing you want stocks that closed up three days in a row on higher volume.

If so, please create these TWO PCFs:

Up three days in row

C>C1 AND C1>C2 AND C2>C3

Vol up three days in a row

V>V1 AND V1>V2 AND V2>V3

Once you create both PCFs and calculate them. Add them both to any EasyScan. You will limit your results to only those stocks that closed higher on higher volume three days in a row.

If you find any stocks that do not meet these, please give me some tickers here.

wilson1,
As far as I can tell, all four of the listed symbols meet the conditions:

MOVE Volume:
5/26/06: 40698
5/25/06: 38321
5/24/06: 27344

MOVE Close:
5/26/06: 6.07
5/25/06: 5.83
5/24/06: 5.40

NGPC Volume:
5/26/06: 4422
5/25/06: 1117
5/24/06: 1087

NGPC Close:
5/26/06: 13.91
5/25/06: 13.55
5/24/06: 13.31

PCLN Volume:
5/26/06: 13695
5/25/06: 9459
5/24/06: 5707

PCLN Close:
5/26/06: 31.40
5/25/06: 30.67
5/24/06: 29.32

CT Volume:
5/26/06: 748
5/25/06: 664
5/24/06: 446

CT Close:
5/26/06: 32.75
5/25/06: 32.63
5/24/06: 32.13

You you have different Volumes or Closing Prices?

how did you get the date and price/vol data? Was that a manual process or is there an easy way to capture the data?

If you press the period key it activates the pointer mode. Move the pointer to any point on the chart and read the OHLCV on the top Data Bar.

Are you looking at daily charts? Where are you looking to get the idea that the data does not match the results?

It seemed very obvious from the graph.

I appologize. I had no idea the graph was so for off. The graphing of the price and the vol is very missleading when you look at the specific data.

THanks.

The graph should match the numbers... How is it misleading?

Each is clearly up three days in a row and the volume bars are clearly greater each day.

We need to figure out why your charts don't seem to match the data.

Jump to CT. Do you have three green volume bars, one each higher than the last for the last three bars?

I have 3 green vol bars and 1 red. I assume the 1st green would be "V", 2nd green would b V1, the 3rd green V2 and the 4th green V3. Therefore a formnula like V > V1 AND V1 > V2 and V2 > V3 would fail.

By the way, it does fail when I test the PCF. It passes when I include it in an easyscan.

I appologize again for taking up your time. Everything is fine. This was a user error.

I would like to write a formula that returns values (plot it in tc.2000) based upon price and volumn (go figure). What I want to do is this:

v-xavgv34 + C-C1

If the price has gone down (C<C1) and v>xavgv34 then I want the v-xavgv34 to be negative reflecting that there may have been huge down vol.

If the price has gone up (C>C1) and v>xavgv34 (same as above) then I want v-xavgv34 to be positive reflecting the large spike to the upside.

Do I need to have the up and down volumn for each stock each day? Where do I find that in TC.2000?

Your help is appreciated.

Alan

Please try using the following Indicator Formula as the Formula in a Custom PCF Indicator.

SGN(C - C1) * ABS(V > XAVGV34) * (V - XAVGV34)
