I need help with writing this filter, If the ADX(5) crosses above 85 and ADX(14) also crosses above 70, then sell. I need a column so that I can see the value. I want to be able to set my sell limit at that value or better.

Actually I am not but I don't know why its picking up such low volume. I am not using that as a scan alone filter, but as a guide as to when to sell.

What is the criteria you are using to buy? Define your filter indicators for going LONG before an exit strategy could be suggested.

Try a "+money dollar stop".Things don't always work out the way they're planned on paper.Go back over all your current +money trades,if you're lucky enough to have some.Calculate what your average gain is,in dollar terms.Sell out at that number.....

Are you sure that you go LONG when RSI values are above 70? It should be otherway around. You go SHORT as the RSI values indicate "OVERBOUGHT" situation. have a look at this filter:
Please correct me if I am mistaken.

How do you interpret this particular signal from the displayed pick of Fridays close?

--
BUY = high +.03, TDS $34.39 + .03 = $34.42
SELL = Selll + .03 = $34.62 + .03 = 34.65
In general, buy the high + .03 for next day and sell the Selll +.03
