In the event of a stochastc going below a certain level eg 20, I need to check whether this is first such occurence since the 20ma crossed the 80ma from below.

Many thanks.

Hi! here you have.
```
sma80=average[80](close)
sma20=average[20](close)

stok=Stochastic[14,3](close)


if sma20>sma80 then
   cross=cross+(stok crosses under 20)
else
   cross=0
endif

SCREENER[cross=1 and cross<>cross[1]]
```
You can change cross=1 for cross=3 if you want the third cross.

Thanks Ivan, I have complete a quick test and don’t think it is quite correct.

As you can see in the attached image the cross over occurs at point 1, in this case I am only interested in the first occassion following the crossover that stoch is below 20. Don’t wish to be notified of subsequent instances where stoch crosses below 20 (ie point 3/4)

Try this one…
```
SMA20=Average[20](Close)
SMA80=Average[80](Close)
Stoch=Stochastic[14,3](Close)

SMABars=BarsSince(SMA20 crosses over SMA80)
SMABars=Max(SMABars,1)
Signal=Summation[SMABars](Stoch crosses under 20)=1

Screener[Signal](Stoch as "Stoch")
```
