Hi ... I'm looking for a Scan to find stocks when the 3 Day SMA crosses over the 8 Day SMA. I'm looking for two separate Scans, one for crosses UP and one for crosses DOWN. I want to use this on any timeframe such as Daily, Intraday, etc. Thank you very much! Jay

Please try the following:

SMA3 xUp SMA8:

AVGC3 > AVGC8 AND AVGC3.1 <= AVGC8.1

SMA3 xDown SMA8:

AVGC3 < AVGC8 AND AVGC3.1 >= AVGC8.1

Thanks Bruce. How do I run the scan on a particular list such as my own Watch List or a Component Watch List such as Nasdaq 100 or DJ-30? Thanks! Jay

You would use the Personal Criteria Formula as an EasyScan Condition. Left-clicking on the first line of the EasyScan allows you to adjust the Watchlist to Scan. You may wish to review the following:
