Hi,
I am a novice to metastock.
I like to know whether I can scan using the explorer for all stock
within a 2/3 months period having a shape of 'v' or tick (it should be
like a small dip, followed by a up trend, looking like a tick)
How can it be done in metastock programming ?

a primitive effort, using the Trough function:
put a c (for closing price) in column A
and in filter:
(Trough(1,close,35)<c*.8) and close>mov(close,30,s) and close>ref(c,-1) and close>ref(c,-2)

maybe the first part of the filter should read:
(alert(trough(1,close,50)),40<c*.8) and etcetera
By the way, why wasn't I able to cut & paste directly from metastock, it used to work OK? good thing it wasn't a lengthy formula!
