Greetings:

I'm trying to find stocks where the 50-day high occurred before the 50-day low, but I don't seem to be getting the desired result.

Fetcher[show stocks where days(high reached new 50-day high,50) > days(low reached new 50-day low,50)]




Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Jerry

Fetcher[
set{dsh, days(high equal high 50 day high, 51 ) }
set{dsl, days(low equal low 50 day low, 51 ) }

add column dsl
add column high 50 day high {50_High}
add column low 50 day low {50_LOW}

TRO:

Thank you for the quick response. I really appreciate your time.

I like the way you set yours up so that we could see the results in the columns. When I tried it without the sorting I got some results right at the top that show what I think the problem is.

There are a bunch of the results that show the 50-day low as '-1.00'. These do not seem to be correct, and are causing an undesirable outcome. I have included some examples below.

TYRIA 0.0002 N/A 132006800 11.00 0.00
EMC 24.45 8.52 126032900 0.00 -1.00
JAVA 5.75 -1.20 68890000 9.00 -1.00
FNIX 0.0005 N/A 65671900 7.00 0.00
AIG 61.79 -3.21 64325700 12.00 0.00
INTC 25.89 -0.46 57683200 5.00 -1.00

With EMC, for example, the 50-day high was the most recent day, but the 50-day low should have really been 50; which sould have disqualified this match.

With JAVA, the 9 is correct for the 50-day high, but the 50-day low should have also been 50; which should have also disqualified this match.

With INTC, however, unless I am counting the candles wrong, the 50-day low should have been 49. Since the 50-day high is 5, though, this match should still have been disqualified.

I also tried changing the number of days from 51 to 52 and 100; which did change the outcome, but did not eliminate the -1.00 results.

Any more ideas, or do you think that maybe this a bug that would need to be addressed by SF?

Thanks again,

Jerry

-1.00 means NO MATCH found.

Hmmmm...........

Unless I am missing or not understanding something, it looks like a bug!

There does not appear to be an obvious way for me to contact SF. I clicked the 'Home' button, then I clicked the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom, and it took me to the 'Help' page. At the bottom of the 'Help' page I clicked the 'Contact Us' link again, and it took me to a "404 - Page not found" error page. Another bug?
