  Hello, Im new to the site, but looking for a scan to find stocks that have crossed below the 10ma but above 20ma. Basically the stock is in the middle of the two Moving averages. Any ideas how to create a scan?
 
 Thank you,

  I think this is what you're looking for:
 
 show stocks where the Aroon Up (20) has been above 70 for the last 2 weeks
 and don't draw aroon up(20)
  EMA(10) above EMA(30)
 and close < EMA(10)
 and close > EMA(30)
 and draw EMA(10)
 and draw EMA(30)
 and set {B, price - lower bollinger band}
 and set{range, upper bollinger band - lower bollinger band}
 and set {%B, B/range}
 and %B above .5
 and draw %B
 and volume(30) above 400000
 and price above 3

  To anyone looking at or using this strategy - what characteristics are you using to select candidates from the results?  For example, running  7/17  UNH looks like action has come down in line with prior pullbacks . . . good vol for the day . . . price near EMA(30) . . .  etc.

  lwshultz:
 You're looking for a pullback into the TAZ from a strong uptrend. You use a buy stop to get in, placed just above the high for the completed day. After you buy in, you place a protective stop below your entry price. a few cents below the ATR(10) is a good rule. You probably want this to be a mental stop because the NASDAQ at least, makes your stop a market order if hit by the bid price. All this is reversed to trade the short side.

  How will I modify the current script to look for the reverse of the trade (short side of it). looking for stocks that are below the 30ma but above 10ma?
 
 Thanks,
