How can I use computer software to write stocks that meet Stan's criteria? Is there a formula for this? Thank you!

Hi Stanhoe, you can use computers to help you scan or filter stocks that meet your criteria
there is only one that i know that specifically looks at the individual stages. that's called Chartmill
Other software, such as pro real time, metatsock, amibroker etc allow you to "code" your own criteria but I have found that particularly time consuming. 

otherwise what is often easier to do, is to use these software to partially filter, such as stocks above the 30sma or the mansfield relative strength above zero. something like that is generally very easy. so there are choices, its finding the one that best fits your needs. then as you become more proficient, you could look at some of the advanced features of these software packages


its a long rewarding journey, best of luck with it


Which is free and more suitable for investors? (Mainly used in the method of selecting Stan)

Hi Stanhoe, you are able to check yourself
amibroker is free and prorealtime is free of the few that i mentioned. they both still have paid/subscription levels attached to them
i'd encourage you to find this out, perhaps trial them and see which one works for you and then as you trial them you will find out which parts work well or not for your specific needs. as all of ours are different, my requirement from a software package will no doubt differ considerably to yours thats why i try every one that i come across and are interested in
