Arthur, you should really read the manual. This is a very elementary filter.

hi, i know the filter, but it doesnt catch all of the stocks where they actually touched the low the prior day. for instance:
show stocks where low touched ma(50) within the last 1 day
and the stock that did that was WFT and it doesnt show up on the scan. can you tell me why?

I would think the proper expression should be
But, here's how I would approach it:
