 If you mean the gap up is at least 1% of the SMA20, then you might want to try one of the following:

Gap Up as previous High to current Low:

L - H1 >= AVGC20 * .01

Gap Up as previous High to current Open:

O - H1 >= AVGC20 * .01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Open:

O - C1 >= AVGC20 * .01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Low:

L - C1 >= AVGC20 * .01

If you mean that there was a gap up and than the Price is now 1% or more greater than the SMA20 then you may wish to try one of the following instead:

Gap Up as previous High to current Low:

L > H1 AND C / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous High to current Open:

O > H1 AND C / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Open:

O > C1 AND C / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Low:

L > C1 AND C / AVGC20 >= 1.01

If you mean that there was a gap up and than the current Price component used is is 1% or more greater than the SMA20 then you may wish to try one of the following instead:

Gap Up as previous High to current Low:

L > H1 AND L / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous High to current Open:

O > H1 AND O / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Open:

O > C1 AND O / AVGC20 >= 1.01

Gap Up as previous Close to current Low:

L > C1 AND L / AVGC20 >= 1.01
