Ken, I posed the chartscript question in the WLP discussion forum. What I am trying to get to is a chartscript that would do a multi-stock scan looking for the Magic Box setup.

Here is how I asked the question, please let me know if I got something wrong.
===================================================
This uses a one-year daily chart.

It only looks for an entry point.

Indicator settings are:

Bollinger Bands (20,2)
Aroon(8)
Wm%R(9)

It's basically a two-day pattern with a "wait" step for confirmation.

What kicks it off is:

Day 1: a close with a red candle on or near the lower Bollinger Band, and at the same time the Aroon Down sitting at 100 on the indicator.

Day 2: a close with a white candle, and the Aroon Down drops to 87.50.

That sets the stage, THEN:

Day 3 (or possibly a few days later) the Aroon Down comes to the 75.00 and Wm%R crosses the -50% (heading towards 0)

THAT is the buy.

HGR is a good example of this, with June 7th, 8th and 9th setting the stage, then it took until June 13th to confirm with the Wm%R coming through the 50.

So, do you think it would it be possible to create a chartscript that could do a multi-scan on a watch list that would look for this setup?
=========================================================
