Custom TOS Stock Scanner when Overall market is UP

Hi experts,

First time posting.

I am trying to add QQQ as an additional existing Study filter for my TOS Stock Hacker Scanner.

(15-mins)
MACDWithPrices("price" = CLOSE("QQQ"))."Diff"[1] > 0

Doesn't look like the Scanner using it correctly. I am not sure what timeframe it is looking, even if I put 15-mins.
When QQQ is deep red, it is still marking this study success.
Any ideas or workaround? All I want to do is List me Few trending stocks when NASDAQ is UP.

Thank you.

Your script has the correct syntax.
Sometimes ToS gets squirrelly when making definitions within the scanning condition. Perhaps try:
Code:
def QQQprice = CLOSE("QQQ") ;
scan = MACDWithPrices("price" = CLOSE(QQQprice))."Diff" > 0 ;

If still...

If still having issues provide an image of the 15min QQQ chart w/ the macd plotted on it and an image of your scanner so we can compare your scan results to the chart plot.

Remember to include your scripts, timeframes, and screenshots for the best answers. (How To Insert Images Into Your Post).
