Hello,
I am trying to scan for securities that had 8 period EMA cross over 13 period EMA in last 10 days. I am using following formuae:
Alert(Cross(Mov(CLOSE, 8, E), Mov(CLOSE, 13,E)) , -10)
However when i run it, all the records are rejected due to "Period Value out of range in Alert Function". Please help.
Thanks
Irshad

Hi Irshad
The Periods parameter for Alert() should be positive not negative. Remove the "minus" sign. Do not run your exploration set for Minimum Periods or the Alert will not extend for the full 10 periods. Use 30 or more periods and the exploration should work fine.
