Backagaindog,

One more thing (as if the last post didn't have enough things >>gg<<).

The prescan should now include stocks with a TSF/EMA xover in the 2 previous days. No sense including stocks without an activated trigger in the prescan.

The eyeballing I've done indicates that the TSF/EMA xover often occurs 2 days before the other prerequisites are fully met. The 2 dRSI and 3 dRSI both move into the desired ranges 1 or 2 days after the xover. This movement can be used as a means of tracking candidates for confirmation.
It may involve running overlapping scans with higher ranges for the 2 and 3 dRSI used in a secondary prescan on the first prescan results. And a final scan on what would be the hit day.

ie, say...500 stocks meeting just the TSF/EMA xover prescan would be narrowed to 100 the next day by putting in 2 dRSI above 70 and 3 dRSI above 65. Those would be used as the universe on the next day while raising the bars on the 2 day to > 90 and the 3 day to > 85. The day after that would just raise the 2 day to above 95. Also, the second day would have a 2 day >95 only run to catch the really quick ones.

If you can do all this stuff in this and my last post, I think you'll find we would have caught CADE with the scan.
