candle is closing at its top 25% @3pm

HushPuppy · Sep 29, 2024

Good day any chance of converting this Indicator into a scan that I can run at about 3:00 EST to see if the candle is closing at its top 25%?

That way I can Buy prior to market close?

Just looking to see if this is possible. Thanks for your time

Ruby:

input BubbleOn = yes;

def downTrend = isDescending(high[1], 3) and isDescending(low[1], 3);
def AboveStomach = open > close[1] and close > high[1] and close > open;

plot isTrue = if downtrend and
                 AboveStomach
              then low
              else double.nan;

     isTrue.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.Arrow_UP);
     isTrue.SetLineWeight(3);
     isTrue.SetDefaultColor(Color.CYAN);

AddChartBubble(BubbleOn and isTrue, isTrue, "Above Stomach", color.cyan, yes);

# End Code Above Stomach Candle

Cheers
Hush !

no. that code doesn't have end of day code or bar percent code.
easier to start over.

here is a lower that should work as a scan

Code:

# lastbar_topofbar_0_lower

declare lower;

def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();
def d = getday();
def istoday = d == getlastday();

def ht = high - low;
def close_per = round(100*(high-close)/ht,1);

input close_top_percent = 25;
def close_is_high = close_per <= close_top_percent;
#def top_per_level = (100-close_top_percent)/100 * ht + low;

input only_last_bar_of_day = yes;


# ref  korygill
