  I have the following part of a filter
 Price is between 3 and 11
 and 45 day slope of the close is below -.10
 
 That works fine and gave me 128 selections.
 When I add the following I get 0 responses even though looking at some of the 128 it should return a result
 
 "and close 4 days ago is below the 45 day slope of the close".  What am I doing wrong?

  instead of using -0.10 try -0.20, should get about 22 results.

  That did not help.  It is adding the language regarding the close 4 days ago that somehow is not working.  When I check debug, it say OK.  I do not understand the problem, but thanks for trying.

  45 DAY SLOPE OF CLOSE IS LESS THAN -.10 AND THE CLOSE IS GREATER THAN 3
 
 HOW CAN POSITIVE 3 BE LESS THAN NEGATIVE ANYTHING.
 
 CLOSE IS NEVER NEGATIVE.

  that did not work.  Among the returns were TTWO and AM.  The close 4 days ago was above the 45 slope of the close.  I don't understand why putting in "close below the 45 day... will not return the result I want.  Not being a mathematician, Linear Regression is a little beyond me.  Thank you for the try.
