Slow Stochastic crossover is one click off
-
Hi,
I am looking for stocks where the slow stochastic has just crossed over.
I wrote this simple screener code:
indicator1 = SmoothedStochastic[10,3](close) indicator2 = Average[10](SmoothedStochastic[10,3](close)) c1 = (indicator1 CROSSES OVER indicator2) SCREENER[c1] (Variation AS "Close")The problem is that the crossovers I am shown are 1 week old, delayed by one click (for a weekly chart screener). I want the ones that happened this week. What is wrong? See picture. It was taken Monday September 3rd California time at 9 PM, so well into Tuesday September 4th European time, yet it is showing me a cross-over from August 20th, why not from August 27th . I presume that the weeks are labelled by their starting date? Otherwise, today is September 3rd , Monday is finished, so also the week of (ending on) September 3rd should be calculated now. Strangely enough, the formula works fine, i.e. as expected for DAILY charts. I get today’s crossovers, not from 2-3 days ago.
Best regards,
Andre
You’ll not get result for a cross over on August 27th, since no cross-over occurred on that date. For a cross-over on this date to be confirmed, the stochastic would have been below its signal on August 20th, but it was already above it.
