Like this?

Code:
def period_high = Highest(high(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY), 1);
def period_low = Lowest(low(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY), 1);
def range = period_high - period_low;

AddLabel(yes, "Today's Range = " + Round(range, 2), Color.GRAY);

The price movement in reference to what? The previous day close, the current day open, other?

This code will color the label green if the current close >= the open otherwise it will color it red.

Code:
def period_high = Highest(high(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY), 1);
def period_low = Lowest(low(period = AggregationPeriod.DAY), 1);
def range = period_high - period_low;

AddLabel(yes, "Today's Range = " + Round(range, 2), if close >= open then Color.GREEN else Color.RED);
