Volume and Higher Closing High Scan for 3 continous days

Optuma Scripting
1

Hi All

 

I would like to set up a scan to scan Volume and Closing price on Daily Charts.

Volume high to be higher than the prevoius day and the day before that, (So 3 days of volume higher than the previous day )

and

The closing price to be higher than the previous day and the day before that.

MYR is a perfect example Apil 5th 8th and 9th

Anyhelp would be great . If i have to i will book a hr with the team to go over it , but if anyone is up to give me some pointers that would be cool

Cheers

please try this ..and just curious how you are using it.

 

 

c1 = CLOSE();
c2 = CLOSE(OFFSET=1);
c3 = CLOSE(OFFSET=2);

//c4
v1 = VOL();
v2 = vol(OFFSET=1);
v3 = vol(OFFSET=2);

c4 = (c1 > c2) and (c2 > c3) and (v3 < v2) and (v2 < v1)
and (close() > OPEN()) and close(OFFSET=1) > OPEN(OFFSET=1) and close(OFFSET=2) > OPEN(OFFSET=2);
c4

Thanks for that I will try over the weekend .

 

I guess you would say its a very basic entry , the next day on open .

 

Then you could use a number of exit plans . Main thing is go in with a plan in place.

 

Cheers

The DaysUp function DU() (and tool) by default counts the number of consecutive higher closing prices, so for other counts (eg volume, RSI, MACD, etc) nest the function within it. More info here:

https://help.optuma.com/kb/faq.php?id=1078

So for consecutive higher volume: DU(VOL()), as per this example (the opposite is DD() for Days Down):

Capture

BARSTRUE() is similar and will count how many times X has been true in Y days, so for the number of up days in the last 10:

BARSTRUE(DU(), LOOKBACK=10)
