We would need to know the exact settings of your Envelope Channel to help you create a Condition Formula for this.

- Period: ?
- Std Dev: ?
- Average Type: Simple, Exponential or Front Weighted?

An Envelope Channel in TC2000 version 12.2 is just a central Moving Average plus or minus a percentage of that Moving Average. The "Std Dev" setting is the percentage used to calculate how far above and below the Moving Average to plot the Envelope Channels.

Let's say you had the following settings:

- Period: 50
- Std Dev: 10.00
- Average Type: Simple

A Condition Formula for Price being at least 5% below the Lower Band would be:

Personal Criteria Formula Conditions

C <= .95 * .9 * AVGC50

Or:

C <= .885 * AVGC50

A Condition Formula for Price being at least 5% above the Upper Band would be:

C >= 1.05 * 1.1 * AVGC50

Or:

C >= 1.115 * AVGC50

Since the resulting values end up being 11.5% above or below the central Moving Average, this means we could also just create another Envelope Channel with the following settings:

- Period: 50
- Std Dev: 11.50
- Average Type: Simple

And then click on Price History and select Price History vs this new Envelope Channel to create a Condition for Price being Above Chan Top or Below Chan Bottom instead.
