Hi, I need help with this scan. How do I scan stocks where 50 SMA crossed up 200 SMA within last 40 bars (it could be yesterday or last month). Please help. Thanks

    You would test for the 40 days ago 50 MA less than the 40 days ago 200 MA, and today's 50 MA greater than today's 200 MA. If you get a hit, then at some point in between, the 50 must have crossed above the 200 at least once.
