How can I write a scan that shows me stocks that today made a 10 day low but are trading within 20% of the open; 5/9/18 clsd is a good example, pags on 5/30.

I would also like the reverse of the above scan.

For the low:

L = MINL10 AND 5 * ABS(O - C) <= H - L AND H > L

For the high:

H = MAXH10 AND 5 * ABS(O - C) <= H - L AND H > L

5 * is designed to get the 20% as 5 * 20% = 100%.

The ABS(O - C) section is finding the size of the body.

Bruce can we run the same scan but instead of using 20%-open use 20% of the low for the 10day high scan and 20% off the high for the 10day low scan.

For the low:

L = MINL10 AND STOC1 >= 80

For the high:

H = MAXH10 AND STOC1 <= 20
