trying to make a filter that will give me stocks that have lost each month for the last 12 months and then gained for each of the last 4 weeks,

when i write the filter like this it shows some months up instead of down and the last 4 weeks some weeks down instead of up

show me stocks where the close is > 8% down for each of the last 12 months and then the close is up > 2% for each of the last 4 weeks

many thanks to anyone that can help me with this filter!!!!

Hi
I have a start for you
I did not get any hits because you filter is to restrictive.

Fetcher[
close > 2% above close 5 days ago and
close 5 days ago > 2% above close 10 days ago and
close 10 days ago > 2% above close 15 days ago and

close 20 days ago > 8% below close 40 days ago
]



If I add anymore restrictions I get zero hits.
To finish your filter you would need to add.

close > 2% above close 5 days ago and
close 5 days ago > 2% above close 10 days ago and
close 10 days ago > 2% above close 15 days ago and
close 25 days ago >2% above close 20 days ago and
close 20 days ago > 8% below close 40 days ago
close 40 days ago > 8% below close 60 days ago

and so on till you get as many months back as you want.
Hope it helps
See ya
David

TRO taught me to write filters in the forum as a follow up and test them in the preview message page. this works well.
