did a search on %b but didn't get any results. John Bollinger in his book "Bollinger on Bollinger Bands" uses a %b indicator and gives the formula as:
(last - lower bollinger band) / (upper bollinger band - lower bollinger band)
How do I write that in TC2000?

I'm trying to do an EasyScan for stocks crossing up above a moving average. As an example, I'd like a list that displays stocks that were below the 40 day simple moving average yesterday, but closing above that average today. I'm using the PCF: (C > AVGC40 ) AND (C1 < AVGC40.1 ). This gives me a nice list, however, I notice that it is not an accurate list. Some of the stocks meet that criteria and others do not. From Fridays list (2/03) I showed MYL which met this scan criteria perfectly, however, I also had MHP which is a nice stock, but the crossover of the 40 MA was on 1/27, a full week back.
Where am I going wrong?

QUOTE (Craig_S) Are you averages simple or exponetial?
If exponential you need:
XAVGC200.2 > XAVGC50.2 AND XAVGC50 > XAVGC200
Also be sure you are looking at a daily chart.

Hi:
I have been listening ot Doug's presentation on moving average crossovers. Nice presentation.
I'm interested in doing something slightly different which is a price crossover of the moving average. I'm writing to you as I'm having some problems getting the scan to do that. I tried to do a price crossover of the 3 day MA for starters using (AVGC1/AVGC3)*100 for the first PCFand then like the video, use (AVGC1.3/AVGC3.3)*100 for the second PCF.
I did it this way as I could not get a formula to make the price or  close, cross the average or AVG3. What I'm still getting however, is a list of some stocks that meet the criteria and some that do not.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Paul
