high / low count script

[TRex50]

Hi, I'm a user of Street Smart Edge at Schwab and the system is going away so Think or Swim will be my new trading system. Schwab has a high/low count screener that shows all the active stocks making new highs or lows during the day. The higher the count, the more momentum a stock has. I don't see a similar screener on TOS. Does anyone have a script for the high/low count that they are willing to share? Or does anyone have a high/low count scanner available?

Thank you so much.

during the current day, this counts how many bars make new highs and counts new lows.
it determines which count is bigger and shows that number first and the other second. the low count is shown as a negagive number.
if the highs have a bigger number, then the cell is green. if lows have a bigger count then red.

Thank you for the response back. Schwab's high/low count is based on trades not candles but I will see if I can make this indicator work. Thanks again.
