12/15/2016 2:09:01 AM I copied this Set syntax from an old thread but unfortunately I can't find that thread anymore. Does anyone remember what this syntax is used for? I thought the thread showed the line crossing above/below 0 but I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. set{trigger, macd fast line, macd slow line} |

12/15/2016 8:33:54 AM This syntax makes no sense - are you trying to use a crossover as the trigger? If so it would look more like this - set{trigger, count(macd fast line crossed above macd slow line, 1)} to trigger only on the day of the cross, or set{trigger, count(macd fast line above macd slow line, 1)} to trigger any day where that criterion is met. |

12/15/2016 11:12:00 PM Hi Kevin, I wish I had copied the entire filter, not just this snippet from that old thread. The person was able to add another syntax showing the trigger line crossing 0. If you leave that syntax as is and click on the chart you'll see the trigger line, but now how to have it just crossing above 0? Oh well, I really appreciate your help! |

12/16/2016 8:44:13 AM set{trigger, count(macd fast line crossed above 0, 1)} draw trigger line at 0 and, if you want only those stocks where the trigger has crossed today, then just add the following as a selection criterion trigger above 0.5 |
