<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2></FONT><FONT size=2>I am having a problem with
the logic of your request so can we go through it again please?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>You seem to want to look for three conditions to be satisfied,
and some of those conditions are themselves conditional.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Firstly: You want the stock to have shown a new high in recent
times. You suggest "recent" to be 15 days. You define the new high as
being 25% up, but up on what? Suppose you are looking at the highest high value
in the last five days and you want that to be 25% above the highest high value
that occurred before that. You could put</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>ColA as hhv(c,5)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>ColB as highestsince(2,hhv(c,5),c)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Your first filter would be something like ColA >=
(1.25)*ColB</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>In your second condition you require the price to be lower
than a previous price by 10% sometime in the last 10 days. The problem is to
decide on what that previous price is. It could be the price indicated in ColB
in the previous expression or it could be the price, say, twenty days ago (which
can be found with a simple reference statement).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Your third condition looks like you require the crossover to
have occurred today. If that is the case then that condition is straight out of
the text book.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>This reply probably asked more questions than your original
posting but as I said at the start I am not sure of some of the details of the
conditions you want to put in the exploration.</FONT></DIV>

It's close and some would like to interpret this law as including Email, but
to my knowledge there is not yet been a precedence.
The laws that currently do apply; require that spam be properly return
addressed, and provide a means for you to be removed from their mailing list
(which the Wiz ad handled cleanly).
I hope no one falls for the reply to remove scam with a real spammer as you
will be removed from that list but the spammer profits by selling a verified
address of someone who opens the stuff.
