While on its own, this should be no great surprise, if used in a scan along with a couple of other indicators, then perhaps an early signal to buy may be given.  Any that turn up on such a scan would certainly be worth putting on the watchlist and then using the daily charts to time the perfect entry.

That's the sort of thing worth scanning for, so thank you once again for a job well done with the exploration formula.  It works perfectly here, after I adjusted the lookback days to 3, changed the EMAs to the time periods I use, and ran the exploration with "n=5 days" in the Analysis window.

I know that if I go to 'Scan' with your formula, I get an error about something not being defined, but it works perfectly as an "Explore".  Never been clear on the difference and the use of the terminology there - to me, a scan and an exploration would seem to be the same thing....  but what do I know? :)
