Hello,
Can someone tell me the code to put into my filter that will show me results from a few days ago...example...I would like to see a moving average that has crossed, but I want the filter to display only crosses that occured 5 days ago, not"within" the last 5 days...any solutions would be appreciated...thanks
Ron

Retired,
Thanks for awnser, but changing the offset doesn't accomplish the task at hand. It doesn't pinpoint the day in which the ma cross occured. For some reason, it shows me ma crosovers that occured more than 5 days ago...the way I am doing it now is to create a watchlist on the day the ma crossed and then watch it. This is very cumbersome. I have found that w/my particular filter criteria, that after the crossover, it may take a few days for price action to move in the direction I am anticipating...so I am watching for a divergence between the 2 ma's after the crossover to help pinpoint an entrypoint. I need to look into the past 5 days to weed out the ma's that are still intertwined from the ones that are diverging.

Ron,
Sorry. Can't help you with that, it's beyond my knowledge. A form contributor who goes by the name as214 probably could help. Good luck.

I believe this is what you're looking for:
As you can see the key is using "x days ago" after each ma statement
Regards
Max

show stocks where days(close crossed above ma(10),15) equals 5
set{cross5, count(close crossed above ma(10),1)}
draw cross5

The CxEma5 column will tell you how many days since the close crossed above/below the ema(5).
If you want the 5 day cross, just add this line:
CxEma5 equal 5
I used some of the code out of the BASIC FILTER DISPLAY that I posted.
HTH.
