Doug,
Open Explorer, New. Name your exploration. In Filter enter:
C > Mov(C,30,S) AND Mov(V,50,S) > 1000
This looks for closes above the 30d sma w/avg 50d volume greater than
100K.

to the user group is not too many basic questions (actually, isn't
that what a user group is for?) but rather 1) little Peyton Place
frolics-avec-detours such as asking someone if she is single and how
old and then generating a slew of missives on the propriety vel non
of such discussions and 2) somebody deciding to become Thread Mom and
scold newbies for not reading the manual quite as thoroughly as
Thread Mom thought they should.

efficiently for some basic stock screening projects, such as alerting
me to every one of 2,000 or so stocks which closes above the 30 day
sma with a certain volume on each and every day? I don't know
exactly how this is done, but I think it must work off my creating a
special alert on the Explorer and then running Explorer every day
after the close?
