Is there any scan for stocks touching rising or falling trendlines just as in (removed by Moderator) software. May be for certain period of time

Do you mean trendlines (that you can draw) or linear regression lines (which are auto-drawn by TeleChart)?

I mean to scan stocks that touch bullish/bearish trend lines including uptrend lines or down trendlines. (not only horizontal channel)

I mean trend lines we draw and not linear regression lines

There is no way to scan for trendlines you draw. PCFs must be based on mathmatical equations. You may want to play around with channel sorts or linear regression sorts:

Sort using envelopes, regression channels and Bollinger bands

How do you write a pcf touching an upward (or downward) trendline...not a trendline that I draw, but one that is calculated by the pcf?

Thanks,
Eric

Do you mean linear regression lines?

If so, formulas for LRs are here:
