Listed below is my filter for a combination Bollinger Band & CCI strategy. The debug states that the wording is OK, but it has yielded zero results, which i know is not true. RIMM is one stock that meets the criteria on March 12, but it doesn't show up in the results. Does anybody know why?

yesterday's close > upper Bollinger Band (20,2)
today's close < upper Bollinger Band (20,2)
CCI (14) > 100

Try "close 1 day ago" instead of yesterday's close and simply "close" for today's close

Fetcher[

close 1 day ago above upper Bollinger Bands(20,2) 1 day ago
close below upper Bollinger Bands(20,2)
CCI (14) > 100
]



This gives you 444 hits today - that's probably more than you want. I would suggest limiting it further by either price target or volume. For example:

Fetcher[

close 1 day ago above upper Bollinger Bands(20,2) 1 day ago
close below upper Bollinger Bands(20,2)
CCI (14) > 100
close above 1
average volume(30) above 500000
]



That reduces it to 126 hits.

Thanks to both welliott111 & Kevin_in_GA. I'm new to stockfetcher, but I think it is a great tool. I've added both price and volume filters, and now my count is down to a very manageable level.
