Backup Program

Sunday, July 24, 2005

Just a note that ChartSmart has been working at a backup program. You can take a look at it at
http://www.backuptoserver.com and give it a try. It is independent from ChartSmart and it backs up your computer folders into one file. We also do stock chart books for U.S. and Canadian Exchanges and you can find our chartbooks at http://www.chartbooks.com .

Screening for Declining PE ratio

Tuesday, July 05, 2005

With our professional upgrade there is a way to do something like this ... for example

(#last#/#eps#)<10.and.(#100last#/#100eps#)>20.and.(#200last#/#200eps#)>30.and.#eps#>0

would mean the pe is currently less than 10, 100 days ago it is more than 20 and 200 days ago it is more than 30. All stocks meeting this declining pe pattern would be met in chartsmart

Complex Technical Indicator Screens

Friday, July 01, 2005

Chartsmart Professional offers some unique capabilities for screening on technical indicators. You can visit our web site which shows examples. For example, the following would be a formula to screen out stocks over a 150 day period having a gradual decline

An Asymptopic Price Decline over 150 trading days - This formula looks back about 150 trading days then specifies that the price then was at least within 30% of the high of the range, then it specifies that over 75 days ago that it had declined to at least 40% of the range then currently it trades within 30% of the low of the range. Usually this screens out a lot of OTCBB charts. It is a good example though of how you can create your own price patterns.

#150last#/(#150last#-#last#)>.7.and.#75last#/(#150last#-#last#)<.4.and.#last#/(#150last#-#last#)<.3.and.#close#>0
