 That explains it alright.  The hull theoretically doesn't have any lag therefore will not make a good crossover.
 
 Thanks for pointers on the variable names.  At times, coming up with variable names requires more concentration than what I'm actually trying to do with 'em.   :o)  Thanks chetron

 Here are a few Hull Moving Average filters for various periods.  Due to a limitation in SF some calculations took place outside the filter.  If you want to change the period do the following:  Look at the first filter below (5 day period).  There are 3 moving average numbers used in fast1, fast3, and fastavg.  (3,5,3)
 
 First number = ceil(period/2);  3 in the filter below
 Second number = period;  5 in the filter below
 Third number = ceil(sqrt(period));  3 in the filter below
 
 ceil is the next highest whole integer.  For example:  sqrt(5) = 2.24  Therefore, ceil(2.24) = 3

 I can't seem draw a Hull Moving Average on my charts, and I couldn't seem to locate how to do this on any of the forum posts.
 
 Neither one of these seem to work:
 
 draw /* 5 Day Hull Moving Average */
 
 draw HMA(5)
 
 Thanks for any assistance.
 
 Eric

 Eric,
 
 (1) This doesn't work because  the use of /* */ indicates a comment. A comment is not 'seen' as code and is ignored. A comment is provided by a programmer to provide explanation.
 
 (1)  draw /* 5 Day Hull Moving Average */
 
 - - - - -
 
 (2) This doesn't work because StockFetcher does not, currently, offer 'HMA'. Perhaps they might add this indicator.
 
 (2) draw HMA(5)
 
 - - - - -
 
 (3) tomm1111 has provided his way of creating HMA using StockFetcher (see posts in this discussion and modify for your needs).

 Is there a way to review this screener for the Hull moving average? I get over 3000 results, which I truly doubt.

 Dreyer, the only criteria filtering here are lines:
 
 show stocks where the close is above 1
 and volume is above 100000
 and not otcbb
 
 The rest of the filter sets what is calculated and displayed.

 Just my 2 cents. Here is a version with much less lines achieving the same result:
