Hi everyone. I'm trying out Omniscan and am playing around with a few basic scans to check it out. In my test I'm scanning for "C(20) and C>SMA(50)", but the results are inconsistent. I have attached an example showing APG which does not adhere to the scan criteria. Am I missing something?

Apologies, it should read:

C(20) and C>SMA(50)

Something is dodgy:

C > SMA(20) and C < SMA(50)

The prior two were incorrect. The third one is valid. It should return stocks that had a closing price between the sma20 and the sma50, as of the latest day.

Thanks Jim. The problem is that it does not work. If you refer to the two attachments you'll see how I configured it, and one of the stocks that it returns.

I have added an additional measure " TRII (40,20) > 80 ", but the results are as inconsistent as the previous example.

The snapshots show what appears to be missing data on the right side - run ToDo

Thanks Jim. It seems to have no impact. I think I'll have to get someone from Nirvana to hop on my machine to see what's going on.
