Is there a way to scan for these. I would like to scan for a cup and handles, bull flags, Inverse head, and shoulders, head and shoulders and wedges. For support and resistance, I would define it as an area where the price has bounced before many times. Thank you for any help in advance.

That said, I personally do not think complex pattern recognition is practical in TC2000 using formulas and Scans.

They are at the very least beyond my abilities to help you create without a specific unambiguous objective definition of what you are attempting to identify. It can't be an I know it when I see it type of definition or be based entirely on an image.

This is true of pattern recognition in general with the exception of fixed size candlestick patterns, which are fairly straightforward as long as the pattern is well defined:
