Hi,

I'm looking for a PFC to scan for stocks, which have been trending up, but just pulled back to 40 Week Exp MA. and also for 20 Week Exp MA.

Appreciate your help.

Can you provide objective and detailed definitions of what you mean by "trending up" and "pulled back"?

It should probably be noted that if your definition requires multiple uses of the 20-Week or 40-Week Exponential Moving Average, the formula will quickly become impractical. I'll provide just the formulas for the averages to give you an idea why:

Stock pulling back to 40 week exp on less volume

We still need a detailed and objective definition of "pulling back" to write this. We also need to know what you see as "less volume". Do you want to compare the volume for just two bars or do you want to compare average volumes in some way?
