I'm sure this is easy but I can't figure out how to get stocks below a certain moving average. Not just when they cross or touch. Any help?

Fetcher[
/* select stocks below their 50 period moving average */
close below ma(50)

/* select for price, volume and market */
price above 50
volume above 1000000
market is nasdaq

/* compute and display how far price is below the moving average */

set{diff, ma(50) - close}
add column diff


/* descending sort of the difference column */
sort column 5 descending
]

From the BASIC FILTER DISPLAY:

Fetcher[

/* select for price, volume and market */
price above 50
volume above 1000000
market is nasdaq


set{E50b,days(close is above ma(50),100)}
set{E50a,days(close is below ma(50),100)}
set{CxM50, E50a - E50b}

set{E200b,days(close is above ma(200),100)}
set{E200a,days(close is below ma(200),100)}
set{CxM200, E200a - E200b}

set{E50200b,days(ma(50) is above ma(200),100)}
set{E50200a,days(ma(50) is below ma(200),100)}
set{M50xM200, E50200a - E50200b}

and add column CxM50
and add column CxM200
and add column M50xM200

sort column 5 ascending
]



Now you know how many days the close has been above/below the moving averages.

Of course, a "1" or "-1" means a cross over just occurred.
