Hello,
I visual screen daily charts for stocks that have a divergence (weeks and months) between the stock Price and Accumm/Dist indicator at SharpCharts. I am new to StockFetcher and don't see a Accumm/Dist indicator to use in a scan.
However I wouldn't know how to set up this scan if I could find the right indicator.
If anyone could give me ideas/help I would appreciate it.
Just for background and if anyone wants to use this method.
I look for both long and short opportunities. I prefer to look at Large caps but have seen the divergence work well with pennies.
I like to overlay the price and indicator on the chart as the divergence is much easier to see that way. After finding good candidates, I look at CCI, Slow Stochastic, MACD, for overbought or oversold and check for recent news, and company fundamentals.
For a long position I like to see the Stochastic and price trending up before I enter and the opposite for shorts.
Thanks in advance,

I would like to do two different things with the "draw accumulation distribution" view.
I would like to be able to have it overlayed in the box with the volume and directly overlay the chart prices not under it.
I would like to add the views to my scans. To clarify I don't need to do both at the same time as they would be used with different scans.
thanks in advance.

TRO & Mushroom...by normalizing where the close falls in the last 60 day's range you can overlay the adval plot. In this way you can make direct comparisons between the two. Although this doesn't quite achieve Mushroom's goal I believe it's probably the best that can be done within the constraints of fetcher:

I added "volpct" to this filter and added the macd and three ema's. I thought it might be instructive to look at RIMM. A double bottom was confirmed on the breakout of 8/10/06. This breakout was on large volume. Now look at the adval line when price retested it's low. It stayed much higher than closeval, implying accumulation. Also note how the breakout on high volume was above all 3 ema's. You could have gone long here or waited for a pullback close to either the rising ema(20) or ema(50). This occurred on September 8 when there was an upclose after testing the ema(20).
