How to get my code to work

  Hi there,

  I have been struggling with my ProScreener to correctly predict and show me relevant stocks that hit my 6 criteria on the 1 hour mark.

  Where could I go to on the platform to have the code ‘reviewed’ to fix it?

  At times the problem is that it returns zero results (which is incorrect when I check) and other times it leaves out shares that should be in the selection.

  I am comfortable with my logic (so far) but it seems that my sequence of conditions may incorrectly throw shares out or even give zero result?

  In essence I am trying to find out 6 scenarios that should happen at the same time and to look back if this was the case over the last 9 candlesticks/intervals.

  Do you know where I am possibly going wrong here please?

  once periods = 9 //last 9 bars myvol = Volume c1 = myvol >100000 medprice = medianprice c2 = medprice > 3 mymacd = MACD [12,26,9] (close) c3 = mymacd = 0 myao = (Average[5](MedianPrice)-Average[34](MedianPrice)) c4 = myao =0 mystoch = Stochastic [14,3] c5 = mystoch =2 mymfi = Moneyflowindex [y] c6 = mymfi >x if summation [period] [c1 and c2 and c3 and c4 and c5 and c6] then endif Screener [trade]

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19

  once periods = 9 //last 9 bars   myvol = Volume c1 = myvol >100000 medprice = medianprice c2 = medprice > 3 mymacd = MACD [12,26,9] (close) c3 = mymacd = 0 myao = (Average[5](MedianPrice)-Average[34](MedianPrice)) c4 = myao =0 mystoch = Stochastic [14,3] c5 = mystoch =2 mymfi = Moneyflowindex [y] c6 = mymfi >x   if summation [period]  [c1 and c2 and c3 and c4 and c5 and c6] then endif   Screener [trade]

  c3, c4 and c5 are unlikely to happen individually, altogether… I think it’s impossible.

  How can both MACD and  AO be exactly 0 at the same time with the addition of Stochastic having to be 2?

  They are usually used with relational operators > or < or >= or <=, just = is very hard to occur!

  Moreover, try removing ONCE from line 1.

  Hi Roberto,

  Thanks, you are exactly right. It has to be > or < but even when I did that then it seemed that the code wouldn’t ‘read’.

  Even if the metrics are >  for MACD and AO, and the StochRSI >50 (which should be logically correct then) could it be that the format of how I am arranging my code is confusing the screener?

   

  Thanks.

  Hi Roberto,

  Just to close this out – I spent some time this morning just going through the logic. I seem to have figured it out. The sequence of logic was off, and I rather removed the MFI criteria as it was messing up the entire code.

  Thanks for your assistance though, I think this thread is now solved.

  Cheers,

  Lial

  There are some errors, the summation conditions must be under parenthesis (you used brackets) and the Trade variable is not defined anywhere?
