  How is it possible that there is no filter that can show Divergence on the Smoothed Rate of change? I have tried EVERYTHING. Unbelievable.....

  If by divergence you mean against price try this:
 
 10 day slope of Smoothed Rate of Change is above 0
 10 day slope of close is below 0
 
 You may substitute whatever time period or slope you want.

 Thanks for trying guys, I too have already tried simular filters to both of your's, but to no avail. It's when prices fall to a new low but SMRoc makes a HIGHER bottom. That's what I meant by Divergence. It just appears to be impossible, but thanks to both of you for taking the time.

  Riggs,
 Try running this and see if it works for you. 
 
 Show stocks where Close has been increasing over the last 5 days
 and MACD Fast Line (8, 17, 9) crossed above the MACD Slow
 Line (8, 17, 9) within the last 9 days
 and Average Volume(90) is above 100000
 price crossed above MA(50) within the last 2 days
 and MACD fast line(8, 17, 9) is above 0
 and MACD fast line(8, 17, 9) crossed above 0 last 2 days
 offset is 0
 
 Current example that seems to have MACD positive divergence with price is EENC.
 Anybody is welcome to improve on this..

 Thanks for that filter, but once again it's not doing the trick. Man, this is becoming a real challenge. I was up till 3:30 this morning trying to conquer this filter, and I'm no closer than when I started 3 days ago. Thanks again to you for also spending some time on this IMPOSSIBLE filter.

  What's there not to believe when you want it bad enough?

  Just to clarify, the above filter will find stocks displaying higher price momentum (ie, higher high over the past 3 weeks) & sagging Smoothed ROC momentum (ie, lower high over the past 3 weeks). Needless for me to say, this is a bearish indication. Just reverse the filter parameter to find stocks with bullish outlook. For example, from "Set{Lo10, high 10 day high}" to "Set{Lo10, low 10 day low}", etc, etc.
