Breakout screener problem

Henchey · 2017-08-15T21:48:46+00:00

Hello, apologies if this has been asked before but I’ve just found the forum. I have based this on a proscreener offered free on the prorealtime site. I’ve tweaked it a bit, It’s a code for searching for a close above the previous [n] bars high. It works fine on the daily timescale, but not when running it on the weekly timeframe, but I can’t see the problem. Could someone be kind enough to point out the problem? Thanks: High10 = Highest[10](High) c1 = (close > High10[1]) indicator1 = Average[20](Volume) c2 = (indicator1 >= 450000.0) c3 = (volume > indicator1) c4 = close > open criteria = volume / indicator1 SCREENER[c1 AND c2 AND c3 AND c4] (criteria AS"Vol Gain")

Because one of your condition is not met.

Be aware that if you are using the free “end of day” version, results of screeners are delayed.

```
High10 = Highest[10](High)
c1 = (close > High10[1])

indicator1 = Average[20](Volume)
c2 = (indicator1 >= 450000.0)
c3 = (volume > indicator1)
c4 = close > open
criteria = volume / indicator1


SCREENER[c1 AND c2 AND c3 AND c4] (criteria AS"Vol Gain")
```
Sorry Nicolas, is that any better?

Also which condition is not met?

Thanks

I don’t know what cause your problem since I get some results myself (example attached for NYSE,NASDAQ and EURONEXT stocks) on weekly timeframe.

Ok thanks for looking Nicolas. I think you’re right, on my system it might be the end of day issue affecting this on a weekly scan.
