DAX TecDAX SL(bd) 788. Dow Jones S&P 500 Nasdaq 100 SMI All Ordinaries Stocks WDC . Retracement back to support. Seems a bit risky, because the previous bullish bar didn‘t have any follow through, but only a bearish inside bar. Buy(ab) STP 42.75 LMT 42.80; SL(ab) 41.45; TP(a) 44.70. SO . Standard setup. Short(ab) STP 45.80 LMT 45.75; SL(ab) 46.20; TP(a) 45.20.

I'm using a simple ProRealtime screener:
Code
clong=low<average[10](close) and high>ExponentialAverage[20](close) and close>average[50](close) and average[50](close)[1]>average[50](close)[2]
cshort=high>average[10](close) and low<exponentialaverage[20](close) and close<average[50](close) and average[50](close)[1]<average[50](close)[2]
criteria=close
SCREENER[clong or cshort] (criteria AS "close")
I don't have any experience with ProRealtime's programming language, so that was the best I could do. Seems to work fine. I screen the "US Tech 150" and "US Non-tech 200" plus the German indices.
