You can go it. Just take each line at a time

1.) Dividend / Close (0) > ).5

2.) Close(0) > 20

3.) Volatility - see comment below

4.) AvgVol(0-89) > 10000 (Check - this is in 100s, I forget what QP2 uses for volume format

Volatility: You didn't say what he defines volatility as. QP2 Help leads you to Beta which is covariance performance vs. SP-500.

Several other "volatility" measures exist. Technical Analysis from A To Z (see test on <http://www.equis.com>) has three references including Chaikens Volatility, which is spelledout our so you could code it. If you look at the QP2 Help on Chaikens money flow oscillator it looks different, has a similar basis - but Chaikens A/D Oscillator is really it.

To me, Bollinger bands (the width) is also a volatility measure.

If you use MetaStock help, under volatility they list 10 different measures of volatility they provide. Those are not listed in my print copy of the TA book, but might be in the on-line version which has extra stuff. Got any idea of what you want to use?

I assume you want to look at the Bollinger band display, not screen for it. But Brookelise has some BB scans on her list - she might also be the programmer. So you could screen for it - then look at specific charts.

Tell us more specifics.
