Ive never seen anything remotely close to these.

Worst_Case_Scenario · July 2016

I am looking to make 2 quick scans,

my notes say-a scan to see the the closeness of the lines of the 20/50 and 200 day to see where trend is heading.

!> Would be a scan to see the the closeness of the lines of the 20/50 and 200 day
moving averages to see where trend is heading. I guess like a Bollinger Band Width but a moving day average width, if its too much to do all 3 indicators the 50-20 would be fine as I will know the 200 easy enough. How would you write that though to create an indicator or use it as scan parameters?

2> More importantly, a scan to check for position of stochastics ( Ill just use different % like 85-15)

and a way to find doji candles such as [closing price >15% of opening price{ AND {opening and closing price having a deviation of "less than".04%} both of these in one scan.

I know its asking a lot but I know the idea is good and will prob change your life! : )

Most of what you want is built in. Just select and edit from the drop downs in Advanced Scan Builder.

For 1, check out the MACD article in Chart School. I think it does what you want:

https://stockcharts.com/school/doku.php?id=chart_school:technical_indicators:moving_average_convergence_divergence_macd

MACD uses exponential moving averages, but for your purpose that should be fine.

For 2, just select the stochastic you want from the advanced scan builder drop down Technical Indicators and edit to your preference.

Likewise, for the doji, you can select the kind you want from the drop downs Candlestick Patterns or Candlestick Building Blocks.

The candle stick drop down options are explained here. Also see the links at the very bottom of the page:
