Hello,
I don't do much with PCF's, mainly because I am very programmer challenged.
However, I am wanting to create a scan that will identify stocks that are having a 20 day breakout to the upside. What I am looking for are stocks with the current price the highest it has been in the last 20 trading days.
I know this is child's play for you but would you mind enlightening me.
Thanks,
Sam

If the high of the current bar only needs to be the highest high of the most recent 20-bars:
H = MAXH20
If the high of the current bar needs to be higher than the highest high of the previous 19-bars:
H > MAXH19.1
If the current bar actually needs to close above the highest high of the previous 19-bars:
C > MAXH19.1
