I'm trying to set up a simple condition without much luck.

I want:

ATR(14)  > C*.025

Hope you can help.

try the following: 

((H-L + ABS(H-C1) + ABS(L-C1)) /2) > C * 0.25 

I made one mistake in the formula just posted for the ATR condition.   The last part of the formula should be  C * 0.025 which is what you wanted.  Instead I put C * 0.25.  Sorry for the mistake.

Thats not a 14 period ATR.

Thanks

Your right the formula specified was not a 14 period ATR.  It's the base formula for the ATR indicator.

Before we can create the scan condition, we first have to iterate the basic ATR formula for 14 periods. Then we can setup the condition ...... ATR(14) > C * 0.025.  

The formula after we do that  will be as follows: 

((((H-L+ABS(H-C1)+ABS(L-C1))/2) + ((H1-L1+ABS(H1-C2)+ABS(L1-C2))/2) + ((H2-L2+ABS(H2-C3)+ ABS(L2-C3))/2) + ((H3-L3+ABS(H3-C4)+ABS(L3- C4))/2) + ((H4-L4+ABS(H4-C5)+ABS(L4-C5))/2) + ((H5-L5+ABS(H5-C6)+ABS(L5-C6))/2) + ((H6-L6+ABS(H6-C7)+ABS(L6-C7))/2) + ((H7-L7+ABS(H7-C8)+ABS(L7-C8))/2) + ((H8-L8+ABS(H8-C9)+ABS(L8-C9))/2) + ((H9-L9+ABS(H9-C10)+ABS(L9-C10))/2) + ((H10-L10+ABS(H10-C11)+ABS(L10-C11))/2) + ((H11-L11+ABS(H11-C12)+ABS(L11-C12))/2) + ((H12-L12+ABS(H12-C13)+ABS(L12-C13))/2) + ((H13-L13+ABS(H13-C14)+ABS(L13-C14))/2))/14) > (C*0.025) 

To make this a scan condition go to the Library menu & initiate the Conditions menu. Under that menu choose "New Condition Formula".  When the "Edit PFC" box pops up, paste the above formula into the box. Test the formula to make sure it works. Fill in the Name box to name your condition. Then save it. 

You now have the condition you want to put into a scan.

Many thanks jackmerz.

It worked like a charm.
