ROCK, Advanced Get shows GMH to be in a wave 3 on daily chart

The scan that I use (in Quotes Plus)  is to find stocks that have: 1)  hit a 6
month high for the close, low, and high over the last 21 days,  2) hit a 6 month
high for either On Balance Volume or Chaikin's Volume Accumulation over last 21
days,  3) %k and %d for the Stochastics(89,3,5) is  above 70 over the last 14
trading days, 4) a 6 month high over last 21 trading days for the difference
between the 5 and 35 day simple moving average, 5) lows over last 21 days are
above 34 day exponential moving average, 6) stochrsi(8,8,5)<30 and less than
prior day's value, and 7) stochrsi(34,34,13)>60 or <40.  I'm focusing on large
caps, so I require market capitalization to be > $1billion.
