Hi Bruce, 

I was wondering if you could help me out with a PCF for scanning stocks with the below criteria? 

Thank you in advance.

*********************************************

After 9:35 AM EST - Volume is required to be greater than 600,00
 
Price Minimum = $5
 
Price Maximum = $ 20
 
Price movement minimum is required to be at least 1.5% of stock price.
 
The time to achieve the minimum price movement is required to be within the previous 10 minutes or less.
 
The VWAP alert will be triggered when the price approaches 0.5% of the current VWAP price.
 
The minimum time between VWAP test is required to be 20 minutes.

I am not quite sure I understand the first request, but something like the following for everything besides the VWAP portion might do what you want using a 1-minute time frame.

5 <= C AND C <= 20 AND MAXH10 - MINL10 >= 1.05 * C

The VWAP requirement can't be done using a Personal Criteria Formula. You can create the condition by adding Envelope Channels to the chart, with the Data Source set to use the VWAP, a Period of 1, and a Width (%) of 0.5.

You would then click on price and select Create Scan Condition. Choose Entering Channel | Envelope Channel 1 0.5. Set it to True within last x bars | Within Bars 20, TimeFrame 1 Minute.

You will need to add both conditions to the same EasyScan.

As to the second request, maybe something like the following?

(1 <= C AND C < 10 AND ABS(O - C1) >= .3 AND ABS(C - C1) <= .2) OR (10 <= C AND C < 20 AND ABS(O - C1) >= .6 AND ABS(C - C1) <= .3) OR (20 <= C AND C < 35 AND ABS(O - C1) >= 1 AND ABS(C - C1) <= .4) OR (35 <= C AND C < 70 AND ABS(O - C1) >= 1.2 AND ABS(C - C1) <= .5) OR (70 <= C AND ABS(O - C1) >= 1.5 AND ABS(C - C1) <= .5)
