I need a condition inwhich I scan, how can I construct a condition like:
- User Input be the percentage of change (POC)
- Condition returns stocks which are greater than POC on both positive and negative based on the stock's current open
- Condition returns stocks which are greater than POC on both positive and negative based on the stock's previous close
I need one condition to scan for stocks which meet the POC either positive or negative and per the current open and previous close. Basically combining 4 scans into one, if thats possible.
For example an output might be like this (ie POC = 5):
- Stock A: POC 6% per the current open
- Stock B: POC - 7% per the current open
- Stock C: POC -10% per the previous close
- Stock D: POC 15% per the previous close
Anything between -4.9 to 4.9 per previous close or previous open doesn't meet the condition's criteria.
I hope that makes sense.

I think I understand what you're asking. Try creating a RealCode condition using the following code. If you select and copy everything under the ----- line below you can paste it directly into a chart in StockFinder.
-----------------------------------------------------------
'|*****************************************************************|
'|*** StockFinder RealCode Condition - Version 5.1 www.worden.com
'|*** Copy and paste this header and code into StockFinder *********
'|*** Condition:POC
'|*** Example: if price.percentChange > 1 then pass
'|******************************************************************
'# POC = userinput.single = 5
If (price.Close - price.open) / price.open * 100 >= POC Or _
(price.Close - price.open) / price.open * 100 <= POC * -1 Or _
(price.Close - price.close(1)) / price.close(1) * 100 >= POC Or _
(price.Close - price.close(1)) / price.close(1) * 100 <= POC * -1 Then pass
