Hi,
 
I'm trying to figure out how to create the two formulas listed below for TC2000. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
 
3% Gap Up (3% or greater gap up at the open)
3% Gap Down (3% or greater gap down at the open)
 
Thanks!

The following Condition Formula for the 3% Gap Up assumes you mean between the close of the previous bar and the open of the current bar.

O >= 1.03 * C1

As does the following Condition Formula for the 3% Gap Down.

O <= .97 * C1

If the open must be above the previous high for a gap up, then you would replace the C in the formula with an H in the first formula and with an L in the second formula. If the low must be above the previous high for a gap up, then you would also replace the O in the first formula with an L and with an H in the second formula.
