What is the best way to check to see if the distance between MAs is getting larger?

Basically, I'm looking to scan for stronger trending stocks, so, I'm looking for the distance between the MA(20) and MA(50) to be increasing.

Is it just looking at the MACD?

What would be the most efficient SF syntax?

thanks a bunch!

Or, would I want to check to see if the slope of MA(20) is greater than the slope of MA(50)?

"slope of MA(20) is greater than the slope of MA(50)?"

5 day slope of ma(20) > 5 day slope of ma(50)

"distance between the MA(20) and MA(50) to be increasing"

draw ppo(20,50) 3 days ago < 0
draw ppo(20,50) > .01
draw ma(20)
draw ma(50)

"scan for stronger trending stocks"
sp500
count(ma(20) above ma(50), 40) > 39
count(ma(50) above ma(100), 40) > 39
