Shouldn't the volume filter be as two checkable boxes? If there was a stock like C which trades over a 100,000,000 shares, wouldn't it be excluded because it falls outside of the range. Even if I set it at >= 10,000,000 and <= 100,000,000 anything over 100,000,000 can't show up because the <= prevents the >= from going over 100,000,000.

Could you add a cross for middle bollinger band since the Advanced screener currently has only cross of lower and upper bollinger band.

The middle bollinger band is the same is the moving average. In that case, you can use the price and 20MA crossover.

I was wondering if you could include which sector the company is in when our screening is done and the co. is pulled up. It would help to know this because that sector could be trending and also not all company names are obvious as to what they exactly do.

Administrator: When you use the screener, does the stock have to meet ALL CONDITIONS prescribed in a search or just ONE CONDITION to be included in the list provide as results? Thanks,

It has to meet all conditions in order for it to show up.

Admin: Thanks on the all conditions response. I think that it sometimes doesn't do this accurately. I will have to save an example so you can check it out more thoroughly. On another topic: When each day is the database updated? I know its after the close but I am getting different numbers from different sources. E.G. Doji doesn't match Yahoo closing or after hours and not always stockcharts.com closing. Again I will have to give you examples. Cheers

Cheers We bought the data from a third party company, and they don't count the amount for after hour trading. It is possible that there are a few data error sometimes, and hence the screener sometimes show 1 or 2 inaccurate stock. Hopefully, in the future when we grow bigger and will buy live data from more reliable vendor.

Thanks Admin for considering adding the sector to your screening. If you don't you still have the best screening system I've seen.

We didn't include the sectors because the vendor we bought the data from doesn't include it. We are under tight budget and short handed right now or else we could make the screener a lot better. Once our forum start to grow and have more users, then we can look for advertisers to advertise on our site to generate revenue so we can hire people to build more powerful screeners and other features.

Administrator: You all are doing a fantastic job. The addition of "advertiser/sponsors" on the opening page of screener is very well done. Attractive, and content of ads are relevant to the use of the screener. The comparative information is very helpful. Cheers

So excited finding this free site, better than a few paid services I have used. I prefer trading ETFs, particularly country, currency and commodities ETFs. Can a tick box be provided for only screening ETFs?
Thanks.

I posted this question earlier on another thread but maybe its more appropriate for this section and will get answered quicker....
Hello, quick question. Can someone explain to me how Dojispace's stock screener works. I clicked on the screener that is supposed to return stocks that formed the Hammer candlestick pattern but it said it had zero results. So I went to stockcharts.com and they have 21 stocks listed for 8/21 with a hammer pattern. Whats the deal? I came to check out dojispace's pattern scanner because you also scan for inverse hammers but that screen also did'nt return any results..... Anyone know whats up

I believe the screener filter out low volume stocks. Also, check out the stocks on stockcharts and make sure they are indeed have the pattern because I often found stockcharts scanner return garbage results.

Thanks for your reply!
I am currently trading a system based on hammers and inverted hammers and since we are currently in a bullish phase all my trades have been off of hammers returned to me from stockcharts.com so as far as I know it returns quality hammers (as far as the other candlesticks are concerned I have no idea) so maybe it is the low stock theory you put forth in which I would ask why would it filter out low volume stocks if it results in a very low return of stocks? I think it should be left up to the trader whether the stocks are so low on volume as to negatively effect their portfolio. JMHO.

We received many user suggestions to filter out low volume stocks when we initially launch the site. Back then, we didn't have the volume screener and sorting capability so people have to manually filter out those stocks and most of them don't buy low volume stocks anyway.
