I'm looking for a filter which has these things in common. I will use some charts examples for you too look at for what I mean.

First take a look at chart of "EEE".

If we look at both WEEKLY and DAILY chart EEE had been in a downtrend for 2 years. Then on the bottom in december the chart ran sideways. Suddendly it got a spike late december with increasing volume. I want a filter which should alert me THIS move , a first sign on a stock which has been downtrending for minimum 10 months ( or sideways for 10 months) and suddendly spike up with more volume.

So if there are anyone in here which knows how to make a filter , finding stocks below 10 , market is not otcbb and stocks which has been downtrending or sideways for months and then suddendly get a pop with volume increasing. Thats a filter I want to know.

If anyone so brilliant , please help me on this.

EEE is the first example chart , then if we look at "IBCP" thats the same kind of chart. What I mean here is that IBCP and EEE both had in common a longer term price drop on weekly and daily charts and suddendly IBCP 19 december got a increase in volume and spike up. THAT is the first signal and sign for a filter to show ma an alert.

So thank you all if you can help with this filter.

Tried out a bit myself and came to this:


market is not otcbb
price is below 10
weekly Slow Stochastics Slow %D(30) has been below 20 last 35 weeks
MACD Histogram(12,26,9) is below 0
MACD Histogram(12,26,9) increased last 2 days


Anyone has any better ? This one gives you stocks in downtrend, but like IBCP and EEE, they had on weekly chart both trends down in a constant matter for months and months.. and suddendly got up

I'm not sure if IBCP and EEE could be counted as a form of falling wedge pattern, if so there must be some screens for falling wedges both on daily and weekly chart

Good post.What you want to do is find a filter that would have caught EEE making it's move on Jan 5,breaking 1.00 on heavy volume after a long low level consolidation.Now you have something worth trading....

Good thread, I feel like this is the one filter we all want to find (and are still here looking for !!)...

I haven't found it yet either but I get some good candidates from this, I prefer rsi as opposed to macd, just preference I guess and this is sort of pieced together from some others that I use. Found EEE about where you wanted it, and it hit fnma and fmcc for me to :-)


Fetcher[

/* rsi strength change */
set{rsivar0, rsi(2)}
set{rsivar1, rsi(2) one day ago}
set{rsivar01, rsivar0 - rsivar1}
set{trigger1, count(rsivar01 > .39,1)}

/* good volume compared to average*/
set{volvar1, average volume(1)}
set{volvar90, average volume(90)}
set{volvar, count(volvar1 > volvar90,1)}
set{trigger2, count(volvar > .9,1)}

/* close to, but leaving, bollinger bands(10,.1) - has to go somewhere from here */
set{bbvar1, count(close > bollinger bands(10,.1),1)}
set{trigger3, count(bbvar1 > .9,1)}

/* define buy trigger */
set{buyvar1, trigger1 + trigger2}
set{buyvar2, buyvar1 + trigger3}
set{buy, count(buyvar2 > 2.9,1)}

/* don't lose the farm */
set{stoploss, low 1 day ago}

/*criteria*/
buy > .9
buy one day ago < .9
average volume(90) > 200000
price > .25
price < 10
and not etf

/*add column display criteria*/
add column stoploss

/* add drawing criteria*/
and draw bollinger bands(10,.1)
and draw buy
and draw stoploss on plot price
and draw wma(21)

This doesn't quite match my rsi strength indicator (what I look for) but its close. I am sure your restrictions are with the set statements. Also in the above filter I didn't add any downtrend validation which I included here. I also have one that uses a low rsi as a trigger that i will try to post later...

Fetcher[

/*criteria*/
high < ema(100) for the past 15 days
rsi(2) > 74
rsi(2) > rsi(2) one day ago
close > upper bollinger bands(10,.1)
average volume(1) > average volume(90)
average volume(90) > 200000

price > .25
price < 10
and not etf

/* add drawing criteria*/
and draw bollinger bands(10,.1)
and draw wma(21)
and draw ema(100)

To catch situations like EEE, In my opinion any filter should include indicators eg:

MA(3) has crossed MA(20) from below
MA(20) is above MA(50)
RSI(2) has crossed RSI(8) within the last 1 day

Try these in combination with your other choices and you will have results very close to finding stocks like EEE
Please give me your frank comments if possible
