 Merry Christmas and a happy new year to everyone. :-)

I would like to use PCF to scan for stocks whose Stochastic crosses %K and %D? Possible to do that?

Would you be able to also let me know what is the syntax for Wilder RSI function? I am interested in RSI(4).

Thank you.

 The specific formula would depend on your exact Stochastic Settings:

- Period: ?
- SK Period: ?
- SD Period: ?
- Average Type: Simple or Exponential?

Understanding Stochastics

The same is True of Wilder's RSI:

- RSI Period: 4
- Use Wilders Smoothing: Checked or Unchecked?
- Avg Period: ?
- Average Type: Simple or Exponential?

For example, assuming an Avg Period of 1, the formula could be:

With Use Wilders Smoothing Unchecked:

RSI4

With use Wilders Smoothing Checked:

100 * ((C > C1) * (C1 - C) + .75 * ((C1 > C2) * (C2 - C1) + .75 * ((C2 > C3) * (C3 - C2) + .75 * ((C3 > C4) * (C4 - C3) + .75 * ((C4 > C5) * (C5 - C4) + .75 * ((C5 > C6) * (C6 - C5) + .75 * ((C6 > C7) * (C7 - C6) + .75 * ((C7 > C8) * (C8 - C7) + .75 * ((C8 > C9) * (C9 - C8) + .75 * ((C9 > C10) * (C10 - C9) + .75 * ((C10 > C11) * (C11 - C10) + .75 * ((C11 > C12) * (C12 - C11) + .75 * ((C12 > C13) * (C13 - C12) + .75 * ((C13 > C14) * (C14 - C13) + .75 * ((C14 > C15) * (C15 - C14) + .75 * ((C15 > C16) * (C16 - C15) + .75 * ((C16 > C17) * (C17 - C16) + .75 * ((C17 > C18) * (C18 - C17) + .75 * ((C18 > C19) * (C19 - C18) + .75 * ((C19 > C20) * (C20 - C19) + .75 * ((C20 > C21) * (C21 - C20) + .75 * ((C21 > C22) * (C22 - C21) + .75 * ((C22 > C23) * (C23 - C22) + .75 * ((C23 > C24) * (C24 - C23) + .75 * ((C24 > C25) * (C25 - C24) + .75 * ((C25 > C26) * (C26 - C25) + .75 * ((C26 > C27) * (C27 - C26) + .75 * ((C27 > C28) * (C28 - C27) + .75 * ((C28 > C29) * (C29 - C28) + .75 * ((C29 > C30) * (C30 - C29) + .75 * ((C30 > C31) * (C31 - C30) + .75 * ((C31 > C32) * (C32 - C31) + .75 * ((C32 > C33) * (C33 - C32)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) / (ABS(C - C1) + .75 * (ABS(C1 - C2) + .75 * (ABS(C2 - C3) + .75 * (ABS(C3 - C4) + .75 * (ABS(C4 - C5) + .75 * (ABS(C5 - C6) + .75 * (ABS(C6 - C7) + .75 * (ABS(C7 - C8) + .75 * (ABS(C8 - C9) + .75 * (ABS(C9 - C10) + .75 * (ABS(C10 - C11) + .75 * (ABS(C11 - C12) + .75 * (ABS(C12 - C13) + .75 * (ABS(C13 - C14) + .75 * (ABS(C14 - C15) + .75 * (ABS(C15 - C16) + .75 * (ABS(C16 - C17) + .75 * (ABS(C17 - C18) + .75 * (ABS(C18 - C19) + .75 * (ABS(C19 - C20) + .75 * (ABS(C20 - C21) + .75 * (ABS(C21 - C22) + .75 * (ABS(C22 - C23) + .75 * (ABS(C23 - C24) + .75 * (ABS(C24 - C25) + .75 * (ABS(C25 - C26) + .75 * (ABS(C26 - C27) + .75 * (ABS(C27 - C28) + .75 * (ABS(C28 - C29) + .75 * (ABS(C29 - C30) + .75 * (ABS(C30 - C31) + .75 * (ABS(C31 - C32) + .75 * (ABS(C32 - C33))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

 Thanks for the quick reply.

I am looking at using full Stochastic (8,3,3)

With regards to RSI, I only know it is Wilder RSI(4).I am not familiar with the other parameters that you have mentioned.

 You didn't specify the Average Type for the Stochastic, but you may wish to try one or more of the following:

Simple Stochastic 8,3,3 SK xUp SD:

STOC8.3 > AVG(STOC8.3,3) AND STOC8.3.1 <= AVG(STOC8.3.1,3)

Simple Stochastic 8,3,3 SK xDn SD:

STOC8.3 < AVG(STOC8.3,3) AND STOC8.3.1 >= AVG(STOC8.3.1,3)

Exponential Stochastic 8,3,3 SK xUp SD:

XAVG(STOC8,3) > .500488758553275 * (XAVG(STOC8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.2,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.3,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.4,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.5,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.6,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.7,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.9,3))))))))))) AND XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) <= .500488758553275 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.2,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.3,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.4,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.5,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.6,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.7,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.9,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.10,3)))))))))))

Exponential Stochastic 8,3,3 SK xDn SD:

XAVG(STOC8,3) < .500488758553275 * (XAVG(STOC8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.2,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.3,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.4,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.5,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.6,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.7,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.9,3))))))))))) AND XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) >= .500488758553275 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.1,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.2,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.3,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.4,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.5,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.6,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.7,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.8,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.9,3) + .5 * (XAVG(STOC8.1.10,3)))))))))))
