Thank you for posting the concept of an SAR exploration. Would you please
post the complete exploration i.e. what columns to put what formulae etc.
?

<p><font size=+0>I don't know if you've gotten any replies off line on

<p><font size=+0>To screen for your conditions, you have to create a new
exploration. In one of the columns of the explorer, you would place
the following in the dialogue box</font>
<p><font color="#990000"><font size=+0>XDN:=SAR(0.02,0.2)>C;</font></font>
<br><font color="#990000"><font size=+0>Cross(Sum(XDN,4)=4, 0.5)</font></font>
<p><font size=+0>I've used a "sum()" function to make sure that I don't
capture situations where the Parabolic SAR flipped five days ago, but within
the following four days flipped back. The 4 in the second line suggests
that the closing price has been below the Parabolic SAR for 4 days; you
can change these two 4's to any number you prefer.</font>
<p><font size=+0>For a stock that's just changed to a close above the Parabolic
SAR use</font>
<p><font color="#990000"><font size=+0>CROSS(CLOSE, SAR(0.02, 0.20))</font></font>
<p><font size=+0>in another column when you build your exploration.
I haven't had a chance to test these out yet, but that's the gist of what
you would use.</font>
