 That's golden. Is the 4th line even needed?
 
 Could flip it to look for shorts too.
 
 Or take it to 6 months to look for more extreme conditions.
 
 Nice one, four

 The version I was referring to with regard to the 4th line is:
 
 
 
 
 The 1st line appears to be the key set-up line. I don't understand what the 4th line is looking for. In plain English, it seems to looking for stocks where the pp is near pp making a new 4 week low. But if the 1st line is true I don't understand why the 4th line is needed since the first line is already stocks where pp is making a new low.
 
 I'm mainly focused on microcaps right now so I don't plan on trading this filter. But if I was a short term trader I might add "optionable" to this and also look for other indicators that could be added to increase the chances for short term success.
 
 I also played with this version a little. Gives some interesting results:

 Clarification
 
 I believe we don't need line 1. Line 1 is covered in line 4.
 
 However, line 4 adds the additional requirement that the pp today needs to be near the pp reaching a new 4 week low. Notice there are two lines plotted.

 how do you trade these stocks? I mean how do we know that they have touched a bottom and will not go further down. Any other indicator to support this

 @raviram80
 
 Try this:
 
 set{var1, day point range / 5}
 set{buy, max(close,open) + var1}
 draw buy on plot close
 add column separator
 add column var1
 add column buy
