  Hi,
  I’d like to know how I could get the value of SMA200 of 20 days ago ?
  the goal is to detect if the SMA200 has been going up over the last 20 days
  thanks

  There you go:

  Sma200 = average[200,0](close) UP = Sma200 > Sma200[20] SCREENER[UP](Sma200 AS "Sma200")

  1 2 3

  Sma200 = average[200,0](close) UP     = Sma200 > Sma200[20] SCREENER[UP](Sma200 AS "Sma200")

  I’m confused…

  here is my original screener :

   

  TIMEFRAME(daily) SMA50 = average[50](close) SMA200 = average[200](close) NoDaysMaxForCrossing = 20 xCrossing=0 For i=1 to NoDaysMaxForCrossing If SMA50[i] crosses over SMA200[i] then xCrossing=i Break EndIf Next C1=xCrossing>=1 and xCrossing<=NoDaysMaxForCrossing SMA5enBaisse = close[5] > close[3] AND close[3] > close PrixAuDessusSMAs = close > SMA200 AND close > SMA50 // DEFAULT CONDITIONS Timeframe(Yearly) minimumAge = barindex>=3 TimeFrame(Monthly) p1 = lowest[36](close)>=3 TimeFrame(Daily) p2 = (close<= 1000) v1 = Average[50](Volume) >= 50000 defaultConditons = p1 AND p2 AND v1 and minimumAge // DEFAULT CONDITIONS Screener[C1 and SMA5enBaisse and PrixAuDessusSMAs and defaultConditons](xCrossing as "DaysBackCrossing")

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

  TIMEFRAME(daily) SMA50  = average[50](close) SMA200 = average[200](close) NoDaysMaxForCrossing = 20 xCrossing=0 For i=1 to NoDaysMaxForCrossing If SMA50[i] crosses over SMA200[i] then xCrossing=i Break EndIf Next C1=xCrossing>=1 and xCrossing<=NoDaysMaxForCrossing     SMA5enBaisse = close[5] > close[3] AND close[3] > close PrixAuDessusSMAs = close > SMA200 AND close > SMA50   // DEFAULT CONDITIONS Timeframe(Yearly) minimumAge = barindex>=3 TimeFrame(Monthly) p1 = lowest[36](close)>=3 TimeFrame(Daily) p2 = (close<= 1000) v1 = Average[50](Volume) >= 50000 defaultConditons = p1 AND p2 AND v1 and minimumAge // DEFAULT CONDITIONS     Screener[C1 and SMA5enBaisse and PrixAuDessusSMAs and defaultConditons](xCrossing as "DaysBackCrossing")

  If I run this screener on the “US NSYE Actions”, it returns 8 stocks including the one on the screenshot. On this screenshot, we can see that the SMA200 100 days ago was below today’s SMA.
  But if I add a new criteria based on what you told me, I get 0 result. I don’t get. What did I do wrong ? any idea ?

   

  TIMEFRAME(daily) SMA50 = average[50](close) SMA200 = average[200](close) NoDaysMaxForCrossing = 20 xCrossing=0 For i=1 to NoDaysMaxForCrossing If SMA50[i] crosses over SMA200[i] then xCrossing=i Break EndIf Next C1=xCrossing>=1 and xCrossing<=NoDaysMaxForCrossing SMA5enBaisse = close[5] > close[3] AND close[3] > close PrixAuDessusSMAs = close > SMA200 AND close > SMA50 SMA200goingUp = SMA200 > SMA200[100] // DEFAULT CONDITIONS Timeframe(Yearly) minimumAge = barindex>=3 TimeFrame(Monthly) p1 = lowest[36](close)>=3 TimeFrame(Daily) p2 = (close<= 1000) v1 = Average[50](Volume) >= 50000 defaultConditons = p1 AND p2 AND v1 and minimumAge // DEFAULT CONDITIONS Screener[C1 and SMA5enBaisse and PrixAuDessusSMAs and SMA200goingUp and defaultConditons](xCrossing as "DaysBackCrossing")

  SMA200goingUp = SMA200 > SMA200[100] is not allowed in screeners as 200+100 exceeds the 256-bar limit with IG. Only the premium version from PRT supports a 1024-bar limit.

  To make sure your conditions are all correct, analyze them separately, esch one of them, then combine them.

  Can you please elaborate the « analyze them separately, esch one of them, then combine them » ?

  Switching the timeframe with « timeframe(weekly) » might be easier ?

  All you need is to use test one condition at a time:

  1. Screener[C1]
  2. Screener[SMA5enBaisse]
  3. Screener[PrixAuDessusSMAs]
  4. Screener[SMA200goingUp]
  5. Screener[defaultConditons]

  when you are confident they all work, you can combine them in a single line.

  you lost me… to combine them in a single line, you’d do Screener[C1 AND C2 AND C3 ] ?

  and how would you do the testing one condition at a time ?

  One condition at a time like my example in my last post.

  You start with the first one, when it’s ok thrn you replace it with the second one (or even better, you add it to the first one), eyc… until all conditions return what you expect.

  Then you may combine them as you want, like you did in line 30 or 33.
