is it possible to develop a scan with the stockcharts scan engine for the price of a trade crossing above or below its pivot point on daily or weekly charts. Although you can create a chart with pivot points I don't see how you can scan for crossovers?

    Hi JHuber8383,

    It is not possible to scan for a Pivot Point. There used to be a working link that showed a list of indicators that do not work in the scan engine. The page is down.

    There are other options. You could build a list of clauses using [symbol = ''] with and/or clauses and check for close crossing a certain value. Like this:

    and [
    ...
    ...
    or [[symbol = 'ABC'] and [Close x 45.40]]
    ]

    Another idea is to set price alerts with your broker.
