Deviation Channel Scan

[C_Wilson]

I had posted this in another thread , not sure if it got lost in the other messages , please don't be mad at me for creating on to get some attention.

I have 3 deviation channels set up ( 1.0 , 2.0 and 3.0 )
I am trying to make a scan that identifies real time any stock price that is currently within 5% of either the top or bottom deviation line. I will have 3 separate scans for the 3 separate channels.

This is what I have
close crosses above StandardDevChannel("deviations" = 1.0)."UpperLine" or close crosses below StandardDevChannel("deviations" = 1.0)."LowerLine"

Could I get some help on getting this tweaked being with in 5% of the upper or lower line instead of crossing above or below?

With some help I got it. Here it is incase anyone is interested..

def upper = StandardDevChannel("deviations" = 1.0)."UpperLine";
def nearupper = between(close, upper*0.95, upper * 1.05);
def lower = StandardDevChannel("deviations" = 1.0) ."Lowerline";
def nearlower = between(close, lower*0.95, lower * 1.05);
plot scan = nearupper or nearlower;

Change the deviation lines from 1.. to which ever deviation channel you have.

I think TOS has its own default scanner too. Check out the study -> statistical > standard...........
