Dear Sir,

I will be most grateful if you could help me to create a new scan that looks for stocks that have made a new high in the alst 20 days.

I will also like to combine that with a scan that looks for stocks that are trading in a narrow range, for example stocks were the difference between the high and the low over the last 10 trading days is less than 10%.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

You want to check for New Highs over the last 20 Days, but over what Period must the New High occur? If it is a 1-Year New High (252-Trading Days), you might want to try using the following Personal Criteria Formula as an EasyScan Condition:

H > MAXH251.1 OR H1 > MAXH251.2 OR H2 > MAXH251.3 OR H3 > MAXH251.4 OR H4 > MAXH251.5 OR H5 > MAXH251.6 OR H6 > MAXH251.7 OR H7 > MAXH251.8 OR H8 > MAXH251.9 OR H9 > MAXH251.10 OR H10 > MAXH251.11 OR H11 > MAXH251.12 OR H12 > MAXH251.13 OR H13 > MAXH251.14 OR H14 > MAXH251.15 OR H15 > MAXH251.16 OR H16 > MAXH251.17 OR H17 > MAXH251.18 OR H18 > MAXH251.19 OR H19 > MAXH251.20

MAXH10 / MINL10 <= 1.1
