Can someone please help find the average of the sum of the 5 ema's and then express the convergence of this value with the ema (80) as a %difference?

You can't do more than one mathematical operation when defining a new variable
This seems to work, but make sure that it is giving you the type of stocks you are screening for. Remember that you have structured this so that it sorts based on var5.

ALSO......
WHEN PICKING A CUSTOM VARIABLE NAME, YOU NEED TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION, RESERVED NAMES: SUCH AS "SUM". SUM IS RESERVED FOR THE SF COMMAND, YOU SHOULD NOT USE IT FOR A CUSTOM VARIABLE NAME OR YOU RISK CONFUSING THE SF PROGRAM. WHAT I LIKE TO DO IS ADD A "V" IF I WANT TO USE IT.
WHERE YOU PUT THE "DRAW" COMMAND IS IMPORTANT, IN RELATION TO FILTERING LINES.
PLOT COMES BEFORE THE DESTINATION.

Thanks for your time and energy Kevin ... I'm still at the low end of the learning curve but making progress.

Man o man, ok guys that's a HUGE help. Still working conceptually on the relationship between dollar flow, Ema's, and internal strength while "the curtain's still drawn" so to speak.
