This type of simple crossover, run against the entire SF database of stocks over the time period you are indicating, should be done in a matter of 5-10 seconds.

Hi:
I figured that something was horribly amiss. I don't get it. I went through the first tutorial, did the second (allegedly the "expert user" tutorial); that all went fine. I used the existing crossover coding, copied it, and revised it to the specific crossovers I was testing.
D*mmit.

I give you credit for attempting your own thing. I stay in the safe lane and stick to OneClick and AutoSearches.

Well...
I mean, the searching/logic syntax is simple enough. I don't understand what went cattywampus, or why. I am loath to reinstall it...crapparooni. The first few tutorials/tests seemed to go fine.
Maybe I'll try a one-click, and see if that runs. I don't know any other way to bracket-navigate the problem. (Geeze, all this for a simple crossover test!)

FWIW...
I've uninstalled and reinstalled SS. My operating assumption is that somewhere, somehow, I corrupted or added to, or...? The stock data, via the updates. As I don't seem to be able to view the data, the raw stock pricing data (and maybe I've missed that), then I can't tell. But I tried a one-click last night, which by my understanding shouldn't have taken that long, and it ran for hours upon hours. Assuming that the program is fine, which it seemed to be upon initial installation, then the only possible answer--since the one-clicks are also taking a long time, is that the data's been corrupted.
So...if anyone's remotely interested, I'll post back here, on the assumption that other people may at some time have a similar problem; maybe I'll figure out what it is.
Thx.

BWB: OneClicks on even one or two symbols can run for days, maybe weeks, if you let them. I've let AutoSearches go into millions of runs. It's up to you as to how long to let them go if you are happy with the results.
Go to Setups>Price and Symbol Setups and you can see if the data for the symbols you are running looks correct.

When uninstalling and reinstalling you should also delete the Stratasearch directory in your program files.

Would anyone here be able to convert this stratasearch filter into stockfetcher filter. It seems like a great filter on stratasearch, however I can only apply it to the 30 Dow Jones stocks ( the dow stocks I am able to update prices daily). By having it on stockfetcher, it can be applied to the entire market.
// Momentum Divergence: 2 (Primary)
(close = high(close, 55) and mom(close, 13) <> high(mom(close, 13), 55)) and
// Chaikin Money Flow - Stock: 1 (Supporting Entry)
(cmf(17) > 0) and
// Intraday Momentum Divergence - Stock Periods: 1 (Supporting Entry and Exit)
(diverge(imi(16), mov(close, 3, simple), 4, 5) <> -1) and
// Stochastic Momentum Divergence - Stock Pds: 1 (Supporting Entry and Exit)
(diverge(smi(13, 8, 8), mov(close, 3, simple), 0, 13) <> -1) and
// Price Channels - Stock (Supporting Entry)
(pcu(5)-pcl(5) < mov(pcu(5)-pcl(5), 5, simple))
If possible, I truly appreciate it. Thank you.

For the divergence filters check this thread: http://www.stockfetcher.com/forums2/Filter-Exchange/TRADING-DIVERGENCES-ON-THE-S-P-500/108174/-1/108174
The cmf filter is pretty straight forward and I don't think Stockfetcher supports price channels. According to Stratasearch help they're similar to Bollinger Bands and Envelopes, you could try this.
But in all honesty, I would rather put effort in building and maintaining a decent database of historical stock data. Since I do not have to pay for Stratasearch anymore I decided to upgrade my SF subscription. I can now download price data for 1000 symbols in one run. I use this filter:
watchlist(your watchlist)
add column open
add column high
add column low
add column volume
add column close
add column open 1 day ago
add column high 1 day ago
add column low 1 day ago
add column volume 1 day ago
add column close 1 day ago
add column open 2 day ago
add column high 2 day ago
add column low 2 day ago
add column volume 2 day ago
add column close 2 day ago
add column open 3 day ago
add column high 3 day ago
add column low 3 day ago
add column volume 3 day ago
add column close 3 day ago
add column open 4 day ago
add column high 4 day ago
add column low 4 day ago
add column volume 4 day ago
add column close 4 day ago
add column open 5 day ago
add column high 5 day ago
add column low 5 day ago
add column volume 5 day ago
add column close 5 day ago
Then download the csv file and use it to create a file that I can import into Stratasearch.

Mahkoh,
I copied this ((mov(volume, 20, simple) * close >= 200000) and close>2) but SS is giving me an error box that's saying "missing operator." Would you know what I'm missing? Also, I couldn't locate the word Optionable in its manual. Does SS offer this option? If so, what's the verbiage that they use?
This is what I have:
period (monthly, rsq(close, 36))
((mov(volume, 20, simple) * close >= 200000)
and
close>2)
Thank you if you can help me out!
