Hi Mark,

Hardly great and noble, more grated and knoble after having a down computer since last Friday. Still it may have been a blessing as I happened to be looking at STEM this am and jumped on it in size. eSig went down as the fed announced it's decision, so I missed the top, but still a good day.

Anyway, I'll here's a shot - however I haven't worked with WOW for nearly a year and I've never used WOW's Internet trader program. Does the IT version use the same coding language of the old WOW Pro? If I left a copy of WOW on my old computer (that the kids inherited) and some data I'll be able test this scan; but probably not before this weekend. After digging in the back of my brain on how to construct an end of day version, I cobbled this simple version together for you to try - PM if doesn't run, as I can't check it [and remember to watch the ( )s and that cut and paste may not work from SI to WOW].

alertmarker(close>2
AND mov(c,20,e) > prev((mov(c,20,e)),2)
AND pdi(14)-mdi(14) >= 3
AND
( close > .85*(mov(c,20,e)) OR close < 1.05*(mov(c,20,e)) )
OR
stoch(5,1) < 50 )

I didn't realize that you were still using that WOW kludge dog, thought you had converted to eSig. 'Course, eSig alone won't allow you to set intraday alarms for this - you'd need Ravenquote, Ensign or something else.

But if it is a real end of day scan you'd be needing, then I'd recommend (again) Quotes Plus to ya, laddie. (Shameless, gratuitious plug <VBG>.) And for anyone else lookin' with QP try this:

// Rashid's DI Delta Scan (W/ Patrick's Mods)

// scanning for (+di)-(+di)>= 3 and increasing (over past
// 3 days) with Close in 85% to 105% of rising (over 5
// days) 20 day EMA or 5 period daily stochastic under 50
// plus close and volume filters

Input="common.lst"; // specify your prescan list
OUTPUT="Rashid's DI Delta.txt";

DaystoLoad = 250;
DaysRequired=250;

Set MDM = 14; // Sets the +DI period to 14
Set PDM = 14; // Sets the -DI period to 14
Set Stochastic = 5,3,1; // Sets fast stoch to 5

Integer A, AV, Z, Bar;
A:= 3; // set the delta value for +DI to be > -DI
AV:= 150000; // set the average vol required
Z:= 20; // set period for average volume check
Bar:= 0; // set day to check

float MA, MA1,MA2,MA5, D,D1,D2, FS;
MA := emovavg(bar,20,cl);
MA1:=emovavg(bar-1,20,cl);
MA2:=emovavg(bar-2,20,cl);
MA5:=emovavg(bar-5,20,cl);
D := PDM(bar)- MDM(bar);
D1 := PDM(bar-1)- MDM(bar-1);
D2 := PDM(bar-2)- MDM(bar-2);
FS := StochasticPctK(bar);

If close(bar) >= 3 and close(bar) <= 25 then

if avgvol(bar,bar-Z) >= AV then

if MA >MA1 and MA1 >MA2 and MA2 >MA5 then

If
D >= A //checks for specified delta
AND D > D1
AND D1 > D2
then

if
( close(bar) > .85 *MA
and
close(bar) < 1.05*MA )
OR
FS < 50
then

println symbol:-6," ",", ", close(bar):-8:3," ",", ", DESCRIPTION;

endif;
endif;
endif;
endif;
endif;

This scan (with my prescan) gives the following for tonite's data: BBC CHK CHR DRE GOU GT ICBC MLTX NFB PLD PMTC PXD RSFC SLE SUPG WR. See any you like Mark?
