Do you mean their volume is the highest volume in 52 weeks? Is it the price or the volume that you want making a 52-week high? Is this daily or weekly volume?

Craig, I want a scan that will give me stocks making a 52 week price high or low on a volume breakout or surge over the last 10 days. I am adding it to another scan I already have. The idea is to find good candidates for swing trades that are either breaking up or down in price on bigger than normal average volume.
As far as stock prices go I'd also like to be able to check the 52 week price high and low range the way Yahoo Financial offers it. Maybe Telechart has it listed somewhere, but I can't seem to find it and I am constantly going to yahoo financial for that information. Those prices are the resistance and support areas for the stock over the last 52 weeks Thanks for your help. Bob Baron

I have a clearer idea now.
To see the 52-week range on the stock please watch these two videos:
How to create a Personal Criteria Forumula (PCF)
Customize the Information Displayed in the WatchList
You can then create the following PCF:
52wk Range
MAXH250-MINL250
Once created and calculated, add it to any WatchList Tab you like.
A few last questions on your EasyScan...
You mention a "volume breakout or surge". How do you want to define if the volume is surging or breaking out? Does the ONE-day volume need to be X times higher than the Y-day average volume? If so, what are X and Y?
Does this volume surge need to happen on the exact same day the high or low in price is made? Can the volume surge happen in the last 10-days and the price high/low happen in the last 10-days (but both don't have to happen on the same day?)

The volume should be greater than the stocks normal or average volume, but I honestly don't have a definition for x and y. Maybe 1.5 to 2 times average volume. The volume surge does not need to to happen on the exact same day as the hi/lo price movement. It could be anywhere in the last 10 days and they both don't have to happen on the same day , although it seems like they usually do. Hope that helps a little. bb

One last thing... average volume over what period? 1.5 times the average volume for the last month, 6-months, year?

The volume surge is over the last 10 days compared to its average volume of the last year. If you explain the formula to me I can probably throw in different values so I can adjust it in a variety of ways. So let me know where I can change the ____ times the average volume for the last____ time period. Thanks. Bob

Try this for me:
(V>=AVGV250*1.5 OR
V1>=AVGV250.1*1.5 OR
V2>=AVGV250.2*1.5 OR
V3>=AVGV250.3*1.5 OR
V4>=AVGV250.4*1.5 OR
V5>=AVGV250.5*1.5 OR
V6>=AVGV250.6*1.5 OR
V7>=AVGV250.7*1.5 OR
V8>=AVGV250.8*1.5 OR
V9>=AVGV250.9*1.5) AND
(H>MAXH250.1 OR
H1>MAXH250.2 OR
H2>MAXH250.3 OR
H3>MAXH250.4 OR
H4>MAXH250.5 OR
H5>MAXH250.6 OR
H6>MAXH250.7 OR
H7>MAXH250.8 OR
H8>MAXH250.9 OR
H9>MAXH250.10)

 Hey Craig - that nice new do doesn't even look like the old you - you look much younger!! Anyway, is the above formula supposed to be used in it's entirety or are these used as individual lines? Thanks - Mike
