Hi,

 

Is it possible to create a PCF that will check whether the current/last price on the 5min is less then a previous day's close price?

 

And by current last price I mean the last price at the current moment of scan running no matter if it is premarket or during market hours.

 

Thank you

It is not currently possible to create an EasyScan using pre and/or post market data, so the simple answer is, "No."

If you exclude the pre market requirement, then the following daily Condition Formula would work.
