I sort all stocks by your scan-stochastic crossing up through 20 and when I check the trues they are not crossing up through the 20. Please explain.

Hi Mike,
I just did the scan myself and you need to set your chart to the same settings as the formula, which in my software, is
STOC12.5.1 < 20 AND STOC12.5 >= 20
so in order to compare it to a chart, use Stoch12,5,1 simple for the chart settings, assign it to an EasyScan for All Stocks In System - I get 77 stocks returned.
Regards,
Mark

Sorry Mark, I just tried again and it worked. I must have done something wrong before.
Thanks

mikelombardo,
My charts and Personal Criteria Formulas are both updated through 12/08/2006 Market Close. My charted Stochastic has the following settings:
Period: 12
SK Period: 5
SD Period: 1
Average Type: Simple
Stochastic crossing up through 20:
STOC12.5.1 < 20 AND STOC12.5 >= 20
Returns True for 79 symbols in the All Items in System Watchlist. I manually checked each of these symbols and, on a daily chart, all were below 20 yesterday and equal to or above 20 today.
Stochastic crossing down through 80:
STOC12.5.1 > 80 AND STOC12.5 <= 80
Returns True for 282 symbols in the All Items in System Watchlist. I manually checked each of these symbols and, on a daily chart, all were above 80 yesterday and equal to or below 80 today.
You may wish to review the following:

If you are viewing a Stochastic with the indicated settings on Daily charts, your Personal Criteria Formulas are updated and the symbols that return True for the above PCFs do not match your charts, you may wish to contact technical support to see if your installation is damaged.
All e-mail communication sent to support@worden.com during business hours (Monday through Friday 9AM-11PM and Saturday and Sunday 9AM-3PM ET) should be answered within 20 minutes of arrival.
