# Define the period
def period = 10;

# Identify a higher high over the specified period
def HH = high > highest(high[1], period);

# Identify a 50% retracement from the highest high over the specified period
def retracement = close <= (highest(high, period) + lowest(low, period)) / 2;

# Combine the conditions
plot scan = HH and retracement;

Not sure if it worked.

Not sure. DE came up on the scanner.

I think I better understand what you are looking for. Try the following code. It makes sure a new higher high was made in the last 10 periods compared with the 10 periods prior. The condition is met when the current close is less than 50% of the highest high averaged with the lowest low in the last 10 periods.

Note:

• I ran this scan, and I found mostly the stocks that seemed to meet your criteria however there were some odd balls. I was able to filter out most of those by making sure I was scanning for stocks above $10 and with High average volume.
• Play around with the period to get different results. To add more flexibility I added to adjustable periods
• Scans are tough because there are a lot of companies that may meet your specific logic but not look great to the human eye. You will have to use your own judgement to filter out the stocks you are not interested in

# Define the period
def recentPeriod = 10;
def distantPeriod = 10;



# Identify a higher high over the specified period
def HH = highest(high[1], recentPeriod) > highest(high[recentPeriod], distantPeriod);

# Identify a 50% retracement from the highest high over the specified period
def retracement = close <= (highest(high, recentPeriod) + lowest(low, recentPeriod)) / 2;

# Combine the conditions
plot scan = HH and retracement;

I love this scan and use the set up a lot. I am so grateful for this simple and important to me thing you created Thank you. I have tried to make the same thing for a lower low... and I just cant think it through (I am using a lookback of 20 periods). This is what I have so far. Can you please check it? I am also really hoping for a watchlist column which will show solid yellow for those on the list that are between the .50 and the .61 retracement. Is there any way you could do this? I would be most grateful indeed.

# Define the period
def recentPeriod = 20;
def distantPeriod = 20;



# Identify a lower low over the specified period
def LL = lowest(low[1], recentPeriod) > lowest(low[recentPeriod], distantPeriod);

# Identify a 50% retracement from the lowest low over the specified period
def retracement = close >= (lowest(low, recentPeriod) + highest(high, recentPeriod)) / 2;

# Combine the conditions
plot scan = LL and retracement;

Can you include into the signal the criteria to also include as an added factor that when the ADX/DMI only signal the 50% retracement when DI- is greater than DI+

# Define the study
declare lower;

# Input for ADX length
input adxLength = 14;

# Calculate ADX indicator
def adxValue = DMI(length = adxLength).ADX;

# Calculate DI+ and DI- values
def diPlus = DMI(length = adxLength).DIPlus;
def diMinus = DMI(length = adxLength).DIMinus;

# Condition for DI- greater than DI+
def diSignal = diMinus > diPlus;

# Plot the signal
plot signal = diSignal;
signal.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP);
signal.SetLineWeight(3);
signal.SetDefaultColor(Color.GREEN);
