I'm looking for someone who can make a filter , finding stocks which has been in a very tight range for a very long time , and then suddendly starts to move to upside.

If we take some examples , take a look at weekly chart on :

1. EGT

2. PATK

If you look at both charts on weekly chart , both stocks moved sideways for 2-3 YEARS , but suddendly moved higher.

I want a filter where it for example would catch EGT on the break of 0.3-0.4 before it broke out

And the same with PATK when it broke aorund 2-3$.

Thanks a lot if you know what kind of filter to search for.

Hi
This is one way to make it work.
I just looked for an explosion in ATR
It found your stocks.

Fetcher[
set {a, atr (150) / close} add column A
set {b, atr (3) / close} add column B
set {jump, b / a} add column jump and sort column 7 descending
close > .1
average volume (30) > 99000
]



Seem to find a lot of stocks that takeoff and then just die.

Good Luck
See ya
David

set {jump, b / a} add column jump and sort column 7 descending
close > 1
and close is > 7% above open

Hi, It's very useful script, but it seems these stocks were silent and constant at same price level for some time. example XTLB. It was at same price level between 03/04 until 03/18 and exploded. Is there a way to modify script to modify to find out stocks if daily change is around 10% for last 5 days?

You want to get in earlier? Something like this scan...maybe


StarLight scan - Look at the ones with the very FIRST big white candle; and ignore the ones that gap up, of course.

close > 1

average volume (60) < 400000 /* Very low volume for months */


/* And then it eXplodes */
and close is > 5% above open
volume gained > 20% within the last 2 days
and volume >= 450000


closed above ema(7)
closed crossed above Upper SMA Envelope(20,2.5) within the last 2 days
