Hi, trying to build a scan that able to capture specific data points in the past
For example… bring any stock with price > $5 in the last 250 days. So the stock must be above 5 in the last 250 days. Or i want volume to be > 1000000 shares daily over the past 50 days, it it gives me the stocks trading above 1000000 daily for the past 50 days

Thanks

Hi Duxx

OLang/Oscript should be able to help you e.g.

HHV(H,250) > 5 OR LLV(V,50) > 1000000

I'm sure there are better ways but hopefully this will get you started …

Cheers

Here are two formulas that seem to work if I understand your criteria:

For stock price: SUM(-(C > 5),250) = 250

For Volume: SUM(-(V > 1000000),50) = 50

Not unexpectedly, both formulas return quite a large number of stocks so you might want to pare them down in the "Sort Value" section. Hope this helps.

Another way to skin the cat, slightly more efficient (tho the Sum method also works) is to just check to make sure the min price or vol in that period is above the threshold.

LLV(C,250) > 5
LLV(V,50) > 1000000

In theory, this runs a bit faster.

Hi Robert & Jim

As per Duxx' specification,

any stock with price > $5

IMHO High price not Close is correct YMMV
