I run screens each night through stockscharts.com using crossovers (their advanced package – $19.95 per month). I don’t do it real time because it is not necessary in my trading.

AMZN, earlier on 11-Mar-08 I had posted a similar query to Chis "I see that AMZN has the 10-week MA cross the 30-week and the slope of both is down and the price below them as well. Of the 4 horsemen, AMZN is still aloft. Time to short?" Chris graciously responded to the above: "Yes, AMZN is another stock that qualifies under the rules I have been using with shorts (10-week and 30-week moving average." On 11-Mar, AMZN traded between 64 to 67, and now it is over 69. AMZN has been a stubborn ones among so many high-fliers which have deflated, especially considering Bill Miller of Legg Mason's so many dud picks (CFC for one - "doubling up" in Nov'07 for over $15). You would think the fund should be facing redemptions and the AMZN may have more supply than demand in due course. In response to Praveen’s query reg.

I found one ad supported free software, HingeFire, which generates on-screen alerts for a select set of MA & EMA crossovers with delayed data, but only for daily MA/EMA and no 10-week/30-week crossover. Thanks.
