Metastock Formula

Dear Friends,

Hi hermn4n,

This formula will give you all stocks in an exploration above the 22-MA.:

C>Mov(C,22,S)

My assumption is that you want a Simple MA.; otherwise , just change the type of MA. That you want, eg., “E” for exponential.

The following formula will give you the stocks in an exploration below the 22-MA.:

C<Mov(C,22,S)

If you want an exploration to find stocks which have just closed above the 22-MA, then try this:

Cross(C,Mov(C,22,S))

The same for those which have closed below the 22-MA:

Cross(Mov(C,22,S),C)

On a particular note, this is basic stuff which can be found on the Manual; also, I would strongly recommend to you that you download the Formula Primer, where you will find more on this, at http://www.equis.com/customer/resources/Formulas/Primer.aspx .
Finally, my last recommendation on the subject is to subscribe to MetaStock Tricks and Tips newsletter; it’s somewhat pricey, but worth every penny, and even cheap at the present price; visit http://www.metastocktips.co.nz

Hope I have been of help.
