I can't get any of the columns to sort.
Can anyone else...or, is just me ?

alf44,
Same problem here.
Can't sort by column nor can I get the "NEXT" page.

Its an awsome filter, good job.
I had to load it into SF by a couple of steps.
If I tried to run it as is, it seems like SF froze up.
I deleted about 2/3s of the filter - add to filters - then went back and copied the part I had deleted. Went back into my filters - edit filter - and pasted the remaining portion. After that it runs fine.

I agree with some of the sentiments expressed here. RumpledOne, I think you do a GREAT job sharing your knowledge and expertise, but a filter like this probably goes over the heads of most members here including my own. Maybe, when posting an advanced filter like this, you could also post a basic version of the same one. It's a shame not to be able to use, change and generally 'play around' with it.

Guys, this IS a basic filter.
It gives you all of the most common displays people use for selecting and trading stocks like the ma(50), ma(200).
The beauty of this filter is you can use it as is and sort the columns to find stocks meeting your criteria or you can add a statement or 2 and filter out just the stocks you want and still have all the display columns. You don't have to figure out all the coding because it is already done!!
The problem is you HAVE TO CLICK ON THE MAGNIFYING GLASS ICON or the filter may "blow up".
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

CLICK ON THE MAGNIFYING GLASS ICON:
Now take the basic filter above and add a line to only show stocks where the close is crossing above the ma(50)... a very popular bullish signal
Now you just get the stocks meeting your selection criteria but you still have all the columns with the information you'll need to make your selection/trading decision. And all I did was add 1 line of SF code. See how simple it is!!
I hope this helps.
MAY ALL YOUR FILLS BE COMPLETE.

Rumpled One
I realize you must spend considerable time creating filters, so it's not my intent to criticize you. I have tried to backtest several of your lengthy filters, usually without success. It seems that your filters overwhelm the SF software.In this particular filter, I did get a list of stocks by clicking on the hourglass, but absolutely nothing happens when I tried the SF backtest feature.

Well, I can't get the backtest to work either.. but I don't really care about the backtest.
You can backtest all you want but backtesting is NOT going to help you once you enter a trade.
That's when trading skill and money management take over.

I was able to run the backtest. Here are the results
There were 1692 total stocks entered. Of those, 1442 or 85.22% were complete and 250 or 14.78% were open.
Of the 1442 completed trades, 736 trades or 51.04%resulted in a net gain.
Your average net change for completed trades was: 0.60%.
The average draw down of your approach was: -6.37%.
The average max profit of your approach was: 7.20%
The Reward/Risk ratio for this approach is: 1.16
Annualized Return on Investment (ROI): 8.54%, the ROI of ^SPX was: 0.00%.
