ChartSmart Screens

Wednesday December 14, 2005

Basically in ChartSmart we like to break the idea of it’s screens into 5 groups. These are:

1) our basic screens. When you click on the Filter button you can make your own filter sets combining the criteria under the tabs available such as price, volume, tech screens and so on.

2) Screens that are on the Charting Menu. These screens are for example, screening stocks that have crossed trendlines, screening stocks that have memos, screening stocks in specific watch lists, portfolios and so on.

3) Screens that are in our searchable database. We also include a database of pre made screens that you can select. For example select from over 70 candlestick screens by simply going to the searchable database finding it then pasting it into a custom formula.

4) Creating your own formulas. This option allows you to go through all the variables available in chartsmart and use them to create formulas. For example you could specify #close#>#sma20# which would mean the closing price is above the 20 day moving average value.

5) Finally ChartSmart Professional allows you to create formulas with backtest files. This feature enables you to create your own formulas using 100′s of variables over a period of over 3 years. For example you could specify what the 14 day rsi is 1 day ago, 5 days ago, 10 days ago in your formula which actually allows you to screen out stocks with a very specific trend in the rsi. Similarly you can actually create formulas for chart patterns since you can specify what the closing price was any day over the last 1000 days.
