Hi there. I'm trying to scan for stocks that are 70% or more above their 52 week low....It's easy to scan for stocks within x% of their highs or lows but stocks above lows seem to be a little bit trickier for me to accomplish. Is there a custom filter I should be using? Thanks for the help....
 
I would try something like

close(“period” = AggregationPeriod.DAY) / Lowest(“data” = CLOSE, “length” = 250) is greater than 1.7
 
Hey Everyone,

Looking to add a watchlist column that shows the %change from 52 week high and 52 week low. They can be separate columns would be great if you could color code it if it is within 5% of the high or low then it is red text. Outside of that it is green text. Any ideas on the script to do this? Could be a really great indicator for all.

Thanks!

Ryan

Thank you! This is almost it. I'm trying to make it show me the % difference from the 52 week high or low. So if it is over 5% or 10% difference from the high or low it would be green. If it was in that range it would be red.

This is really good for making sure you aren't trading stocks that could pop or drop below these ranges if you don't want to get caught. What modifications could be done to the code to make this work. I did this in a google sheets form

if the stock is high priced and the highest and lowest are close together,
it is possible for the close to be within 5% of the lowest and within 5% of the highest, at the same time.

i made the 1st version based on a % of the range between the highest to lowest, to avoid that.


here is a version, based on a % of the lowest price and highest price, over 52 weeks.
if close is within the % of the highest and lowest, the font will be yellow.

Ahh I see! Well done dude! Thank you very much. Would be nice if they were combined in a way you know like if the % was shown if it wasn't in the Hi, Lo 5% but showed the Red if it was. Is there a way to combine them. Really appreciate it. Helps out a lot for screening! Since you are so good at it do you know of a way to make the P/L colors Red or Green in the monitor/positions section? I haven't been able to get a straight answer on this.

oops, i guess i overlooked that, not showing all the %...
looking at it


i added the missing green % numbers
moved HI and LO to be after the % numbers, so the numbers sort.
i actually added an input that controls if HI and LO are displayed. default is no.
since it is a column study, you have to edit the code, to change inputs.
change this code line to = yes, to display the words after the numbers.

Great Job! Thank you so much!
 
I can't figure out how to create a pristine scanner for this info: Looking at creating a scanner that searches for tickers within 10% of their 52 week high within the past 14 days. Unsure how to specify the second time frame. Any ideas?
Thanks!

could use the approx trading days in a year, 252.
set scan time to day.

Code: 
def yr_hi = highest(high, 252);
def limit_per = 10;
def limit_level =  ( yr_hi * ( 1 - ( limit_per/100))) ;
def isabovelvl = if (close > limit_level) then 1 else 0;
def days_back = 14;
plot z = if sum(isabovelvl, days_back) >= 1 then 1 else 0;
 
I am looking for a thinkscript that will plot an indicator when a stock price hits all time high in past 12 months period.
Can someone point me to it or tell me if such script exists?

per the OP:
It is a technical indicator used by some traders and investors who view the 52-week high or low as an important factor in determining a stock's current value and predicting future price movement.

This indicator uses a daily aggregation.
Premarket is just a segment of a day so can't use a daily aggregation. Only intraday indicators work in extended hours.
