Great work Slippage. In one of TG's videos discussing his scanner, he has many studies that make up 1 scan (Moxie Crossover, Daily 50/200 SMA on/off, Hourly 50/200 SMA on/off, Monthly 10 SMA on/off, etc.) Does the scan you link to in this thread mimic that?
Like you, I've watched a lot of TG's videos, both from his days on his own at Moxie Trading and now with ST. I think finding the setups for the Moxie Method before it crosses above zero on the indicator to place on a watchlist would be beneficial. Is that possible? I guess I could pay for his Mastery Program but would like to hear your thoughts. Thanks again for the code - great job! All the best.
The scan code I posted in this thread is only the Moxie piece. I didn't link any shared scans nor do I plan to.
I saw the scan in the video you're talking about, I think in the Moxie Trader channel, when he was excited that he now finally has a scan. That made me seriously doubt whether he even created Moxie since turning it into a scan is simple and took me about 5 seconds. His scan piqued my interest at the time but I didn't try to copy it. Instead, I created a scan that filters for the criteria I hear him talking about all the time. My scan has 6 sections.
1. On monthly, close is above 10 SMA
2. On monthly, Moxie is above -0.2 (this is equivalent to the weekly chart)
3. On weekly, Moxie is above -0.2 (this is equivalent to the daily chart)
4. On weekly, close is above 8/21 EMA and 30/50 SMA and 8 is above 21
5. On daily, close is above 50 SMA
6. On hourly, close is above 50/200 SMA and price traded within one third ATR of the 50 SMA
I run this scan with "Scan in" set to a another scan that has my minimum requirements for stocks I'd consider for a swing -- average volume and things like that.
You can see I gave Moxie a little wiggle room with above -0.2 instead of above 0 in case it's about to cross. I need more experience with Moxie before I can know if that wiggle room helps or hurts.
I doubt his scan filters out stocks that aren't near the hourly 50 SMA. Having that filter is helpful to not waste time looking at stocks that need a pullback to the 50 before they should be traded. And it eliminates stocks that already took off and shouldn't be chased. Even though he only executes trades in the last hour of the day I get the impression he spends a lot of hours looking at charts and waiting for them to set up. I'd rather not see them until they're almost ready for entry. Once I have more experience with it I may add filters for the 15m criteria as well, to get only stocks that are truly ready to trade immediately.
I considered adding filters to get rid of stocks that are just below monthly 50/200 SMA, weekly 200 SMA or daily 200 SMA but he does trade those on their second attempt to pass those resistances so I didn't filter them out.
I originally created scans for the crosses above/below zero. Then I watched the videos to learn the strategy and discovered the crossover generally is not the time to enter a trade so I don't see those scans as useful.
Lastly, I haven't been trading any of this yet so I'm no expert. I did enter a couple of orders yesterday, based on this Moxie stuff, to execute Monday if my stop-limits are hit. My scan may change as I learn more either through experience or paying for training.
