Hello,

I'd like to screen stocks for swings like on 28th Sep 2023, 1st Now 2023 and 8th Jan 2024 on the CRWD stock.

I have created a strategy in the picture and it correctly finds the first swing but not the other two. Any ideas what is wrong? I tried modifying parameters, disabling blocks, everything. Still no success. I tested on the single stock, 1% positions, not retaining NSF positions, 3 years back. It finds only that one swing on 28th.



Thx
Jiri

BTW... it would be great if it's possible to:
1) freely re-arrange the blocks. It somehow works by drag & drop but it's not very reliable
2) Add short comments to individual blocks... sometimes it's not easy to recall the meaning in the whole strategy

Rearranging blocks is reliable. You drop a block onto another block and the block you dropped is moved to below the target block.

Adding comments to Blocks is an idea as suboptimal as raising substantially different questions in a single topic like this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, sorry :)
Well, I still think it does make sense to enable the block-level comments. It would make the stuff much more readable for me. Learning C# is not an option with my time restrictions.

You want even more visual clutter than there currently is on that drawing board? Let me respectfully disagree with you and get back to the topic:

1 - Consider enabling an event provider that returns splits and replacing your "Close is >= 10" with the SplitRev indicator which reverses split adjustments and returns the actual historical prices. Otherwise your testing may be inaccurate on stocks that split in the past.

2 - Overall, Extensions > Price Grid Editor is capable of detecting chart patterns like swings in a more intuitive way and with much flexibility and power. Have you considered it for this purpose?

1) I've disabled the Close > 10 condition completely but it did not help.
I'd really need to identify the issue here... I believe the strategy is setup correctly.

2) Yes, I've been playing around but it did not find what I asked for> Sometimes yes, sometimes not. Maybe I did not spend enough time on it to learn all details but the guidance is rather limited and I don't have that much time.
