Here is a scan I use for bullish stocks making a pullback. You can use a similar scan but change the "less than" to "greater than" and the time periods. You can also add the same comparison for daily low in addition to daily high.
• 20-day Exponential Moving Average of Close for today is greater than 50-day Exponential Moving Average of Close for today
• 50-day Exponential Moving Average of Close for today is greater than 200-day Exponential Moving Average of Close for today
• Daily Close for today is greater than 20-day Exponential Moving Average of Close for today
• Daily High for today is less than Daily High for yesterday
• Daily High for yesterday is less than Daily High for 2 days ago
• Daily High for 2 days ago is less than Daily High for 3 days ago
• Daily High for 3 days ago is less than Daily High for 4 days ago
• Daily High for 4 days ago is less than Daily High for 5 days ago0 -
Here's another alternative to try (Mark_L's scan is great, just taking another approach):
[type = stock] AND [Daily SMA(20,Daily Volume) > 40000]
// lower price channel is still rising
and [Lower Price Chan(21) = max(21, Lower Price Chan(21))]
// test current month channels against prior month
// lowest upper price channel in last 21 days is better than the best of prior 21 days
and [min(21, Upper Price Chan(21)) > 21 days ago max(21, Upper Price Chan(21))]
// and same test of lower price channel
and [min(21, Lower Price Chan(21)) > 21 days ago max(21, Lower Price Chan(21))]
//************if you want, same tests for second month versus third month
//and [21 days ago min(21, Upper Price Chan(21)) > 42 days ago max(21, Upper Price Chan(21))]
//and [21 days ago min(21, Lower Price Chan(21)) > 42 days ago max(21, Lower Price Chan(21))]
The test of the most recent two months gets a reasonable number of hits that look pretty good. Adding the third month gets no hits, so I left it in but commented it out. Those lines might be useful in a different market.
You could play with the 21 day parameter to see if it makes a difference.0
