Will alerts in V16 continue to only be available for 'real time permission' folks (Platinum?) or will the final version have a reduced number available for Gold members as 12.6 does?

If you're using the watchlist column set, it  should be included already. If not, and you have columns that include entry price and # of shares then click on the '+' add column button to the right of your column header. Go down the list that come up to 'watchlist tracking', click the '+' there to expand that list and then click on 'Tracking Gain/Loss' . that should do it.

Bruce, re your post of 10-4-2012 on PPO Histogram; I wanted to do a PCF to simply determine whether it was above or below zero, for a scan. In testing your PCF from the post as an indicator, without the greater than operator, the top portion, for the current day/period, the result showed as zero. By multiplying that part of the PCF by 100, as the PPO formula reaquires, the PCF gives the value presented on the chart. I was thinking that might be the source of the case #8894 problem, too many decimals.

Now my question, the second part of my scan involved the coincidence of PPO histogram 8-12-7 also being < 0. If the above doesn&#39;t help with the Indicator condition problem, could you post the formula for histogram 8-12-7.

You do amazing things with your math and these formulas. Thanks for your help!

It seems the calculation method for TC2000 ver 12 would be the more accurate at end of week but look at INFI - daily is solid positive BOP in the range +60 to +100 since 7/1/2012 but for the same period weekly is all -100 red BOP.

About a month ago (Aug 25) I had a chat session with Marcus regarding the display of Bop in weekly and daily charts resulting in his statement that he would refer the problem and have a response emailed to me. To date I have not received that response.

To restate the problem, weekly charts fail to display extensive periods of Green BOP and instead show Red Bop during those periods. Example from our discussion was RAX. Checking the same weekly chart in 2007, the green BOP is displayed.

To demonstrate the problem today I did the following 

Created PCF   max(BOP,15)  -maximum BOP over last 15 periods (weekly)-   and used as condition in scan: value less than -8 (minus 8) weekly. Pulled 327 stocks. Set up weekly and daily templates in both 2007 and 2000 V12 with same time frame in all 4 charts; approximately Nov 2011 to current, in 2007 daily zoom at 3 and weekly zoom at 7 &ndash; ver 12 adjusted with slider bar at bottom of charts.

In most instances  ver 12 weekly chart failed to display extensive green BOP when it was evident on daily chart.

In 2007, daily chart was identical to ver 12 but weekly chart did show green BOP which ver 12 failed to do.

Has there been any investigation into this anomoly, or is it known and just something we must live with?

Thanks Bruce,   I found the PCF Formula Descriptions after I posted and am using it along with the Handy PCF doc to develop a spreadsheet to write the formulas based on input for the w, x and z criteria. As noted in the PCF Formula Descriptions I&#39;ll have to omit the possibility of the w criteria for MIN, MAX, AVG AND XAVG for formulas and functions.

The Boolean PCFs for candlesticks is exactly what I was hoping for.

A separate note, I found the full list of TC2007 training videos - which being short and very specific will be helpful as far as they apply to V12

Thanks again for your help.

I&#39;m don&#39;t know why the diacriticals, apostrophe &#39;  and quotes " came out so weird in the above post. I think they were alright in the preview pane. Maybe because I typed in Word then pasted to the post thru the security box.

I have two questions regarding PCF formulae for TSV.

First, on my charts, I have been using TSV with exponential average (Technitrader chart templates) and when I create a PCF condition e.g.  MAX(TSV18,10) I find that the charts of the scan results don&rsquo;t necessarily agree with the condition. What I discovered is that the PCF condition is calculating TSV with Simple average while the chart depicts exponential. If I create a condition from the indicator on the chart, it does use the selected, i.e. exponential, average; but I can&rsquo;t get the &ldquo;personal&rdquo; flavor of MIN/MAX etc.

Question 1 is, can we write a PCF for TSV with exponential average.

Question 2 is, can we make the exponential PCF for &ldquo;z&rdquo; days ago value rather than the current value (as we can in the simple average PCF : MAX(TSV18.z,10)?  

While I&rsquo;m asking questions, is there a single source Manual available for PCF language which would reduce the sometimes tedious and time consuming (even though often enlightening) search through the discussions and if so, is it current with TC2000 version 12?

Finally, last question, I promise, has anyone published a definitive and tested set of PCFs for the major candle patterns Morning/evening star, bullish/bearish harami etc. etc.?

Thanks for your fantastic help with all our questions.

Bruce,

you&#39;re amazing. I don&#39;t know how you do that so fast.

Thanks once again
