I am wondering if anyone can give me some hint on making one or two filters to find stocks have bullish pennant or bullish flag continuation pattern for the past 5 trading days.

Thanks in advance.

Have you checked out the "Short Term Pattern Matching" section on the SF home page?

I tried this some time ago and could only do as well as this.

Fetcher[set{v,count(4 day slope of close is between 0 and -.05,1)}
set{a,count(5 day slope of close 4 days ago > .1,1)}
set{and1,v * a }

set{t,count(5 day slope of close is between 0 and -.05,1)}
set{r,count(5 day slope of close 5 days ago > .1,1)}
set{and2,t * r }


set{b,count(6 day slope of close is between 0 and -.05,1)}
set{c,count(5 day slope of close 6 days ago > .1,1)}
set{and3,b * c }


set{or1,and1 + and2}
set{or2,or1 + and3}
or2 > 0
and price > 1 and avg vol(90) > 50000
]



It looks for a very recent advance(5 day slope of close x days ago > .1). A slope of 1 would mean price doubled in that 5 day period. Then, it looks for a 4 day, or 5 day, or 6 day colsolidation where price cannot advance and give back up to half(.05).

The slope and pullback are adjustable to your volatility requirements.

Some charts look good, but, many do not. Search on "flag" and "flagpole" to see prior thread(s) on this topic.

Fetcher[

and bollinger(20) with is at a 30 day low
]

Thanks all for the info.

Chart like this one below inspired me to look for stocks with pennant pattern. I caught GLNC from 0.33 to 1.40s on this formation a few days ago.

Well I do the patterm match method, it generated hundreds, none really matched it. I'll test of others you suggested. Thanks a lot!
