How to code percent rank

HI Guys,

I would like to code the following logic


close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 63) *2
+close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 126)
+close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 252)

Then percent rank the result in 1-99 numbers

I am not sure how to code for the percent rank part, can it be done?

Is there other ways to sort the strength?

if you want to rank a number, you need to compare it to something. we can find the min and max values of the signal, and use that range as 100%. then compare the current signal to it.
i used the longest average length , 252, as the length for finding highest and lowest.

i think this lower study is what you are asking for.

Code:
# percent_rank_3avgs

#How to code percent rank
# close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 63) *2
# +close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 126)
# +close/MovingAverage( AverageType.SIMPLE, close, 252)
#Then percent rank the result in 1-99 numbers

declare lower;

def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();
def data = close;

#input avg1_type = AverageType.exponential;
input avg1_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg1_length = 63;
def avg1 = MovingAverage(avg1_type , data , avg1_length );

input avg2_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg2_length = 126;
def avg2 = MovingAverage(avg2_type , data , avg2_length );

input avg3_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg3_length = 252;
def avg3 = MovingAverage(avg3_type ,data ,avg3_length );


input avg1_factor = 2.0;
input avg2_factor = 1.0;
input avg3_factor = 1.0;

def avg1_ratio = (avg1_factor*close/avg1);
def avg2_ratio = (avg2_factor*close/avg2);
def avg3_ratio = (avg3_factor*close/avg3);

def t = avg1_ratio + avg1_ratio + avg1_ratio;

def maxt = highest(t, avg3_length);
def mint = lowest(t, avg3_length);
def rngt = (maxt - mint);
def adjt = (t-mint);

def per = round(100*adjt/rngt,0);

addlabel(1, per + " %", color.yellow);


#-----------------------------

addchartbubble(0, 0,
t + "\n" +
per + " %"
, color.yellow, no);


input show_avg_ratios = no;
plot z1 = if show_avg_ratios then avg1_ratio else na;
plot z2 = if show_avg_ratios then avg2_ratio else na;
plot z3 = if show_avg_ratios then avg3_ratio else na;

plot zp = if show_avg_ratios then na else per;

input show_average_lines = no;
plot zavg1 = if show_average_lines then avg1 else na;
plot zavg2 = if show_average_lines then avg2 else na;
plot zavg3 = if show_average_lines then avg3 else na;
#



------------------------------


here is an upper study for testing. shows 3 averages

Code:
# avgs3

def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();
def data = close;

#input avg1_type = AverageType.exponential;
input avg1_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg1_length = 63;
def avg1 = MovingAverage(avg1_type , data , avg1_length );

input avg2_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg2_length = 126;
def avg2 = MovingAverage(avg2_type , data , avg2_length );

input avg3_type = AverageType.Simple;
input avg3_length = 252;
def avg3 = MovingAverage(avg3_type ,data ,avg3_length );

input show_average_lines = yes;
plot zavg1 = if show_average_lines then avg1 else na;
plot zavg2 = if show_average_lines then avg2 else na;
plot zavg3 = if show_average_lines then avg3 else na;
