 Four,
 
 Have you ever seen those street signs that say Slow Children At Play? Apparently we need one in my neighborhood.
 
 Here is what I think you are saying:
 
 When green line, PP, crosses above purple line, MA(PP,5), buy and when purple crosses above green, sell? Please confirm if I am understanding you.
 
 This looks like John Person's indicator on thinkor swim except you have given us a way to use this as a screener. Thinkorswin only allows you to check one stock at a time. I have been looking for something like this. Thanks.
 
 Person also incorporates the use of Doji's. Do you think they matter on this indicator? Your signal looks fine without Doji's.
 
 Bill

 - doji -
 
 show stocks where the open equals close and
 high is above open and low is below open
 
 
 -------------------
 
 "When green line, PP, crosses above purple line, MA(PP,5), buy and when purple crosses above green, sell? Please confirm if I am understanding you. "
 
 This is possible
 
 pp crossed above ma(pp,5)
 
 -------------------
 
 close > cma(pp 1 day ago,5)
 close > open
 low > cma(pp 1 day ago,5)
 high 1 day ago < cma(pp 1 day ago,5)
 
 close between 1 and 20
 avgvol(30) > 800000
 
 The above (original) requires (1) white candle (2) low and close greater than the MA (3) yesterday's high below MA
 
 -------------------
 
 Thanks and try this ? Needs exit and needs stop-loss...

 Four,
 
 From your latest post, version 1 and version 2 give the same list. Apparently they are different ways of displaying the same thing. Thursday produced the same 7 stocks on both screens. Friday caused losses in the same 6 from both screens. I assume all 6 violated the stop loss? What stop loss would you suggest?
 
 My comment about losses is not intentended as a criticism. I think you have found something good and I'm just trying to understand it better. Friday was brutal on most everything.
 
 Bill

 P.S. This filter (above) with a "buy trigger" for the next day's limit order would have kept you out of the majority of the pain.
 Stop-losses and exits are where I have many questions. It also depends on the time frame.... I wonder about your thoughts.
 
 P.P.S. Any thoughts on this filter (below)?

 That filter doesnt look like its codded correctly, I see to many conditionals bieng saved as variables.  I could be wrong though and just confused on how stockfetcher works.
