Greetings,

I'm seeking the high and close values of the very last one-hour bar from the trading session two days ago and would like to represent them as horizontal lines on a chart. If there was a post-market session for a specific ticker symbol on that day, then that data will be included as well.

Your help is much appreciated.

Thank you.
 
Hello @SleepyZ , I tried the attached code to scan stocks based on a month aggregation, but none appeared. I see that the tikr IVVD satisfied the criteria but was not caught by the filter even though it satisfied. Can you please suggest.

Thank you
Code:
def ymd      =  GetMonth();
def candles  = !IsNaN(close);
def capture  = candles and ymd != ymd[1];
def dayCount = CompoundValue(1, if capture then dayCount[1] + 1 else dayCount[1], 0);
def thisDay  = (HighestAll(dayCount) - dayCount) ;

def poc      = if IsNaN(close)
               then poc[1]
               else if thisDay == 1 then reference VolumeProfile("time per profile" = "Month", "on expansion" = no)
               else poc[1];
def vahigh   = if IsNaN(close)
               then vahigh[1]
               else if thisDay == 1 then reference VolumeProfile("time per profile" = "Month", "on expansion" = no).VAHigh
               else vahigh[1];
def valow    = if IsNaN(close)
               then valow[1]
               else if thisDay == 1 then reference VolumeProfile("time per profile" = "Month", "on expansion" = no).VALow
                else valow[1];

def poc1    =  poc;
def vahigh1 =  vahigh;
def valow1  =  valow;


def tph = vahigh1;
def pvo = poc1;
def tpl = valow1;
 

plot scan = close>=pvo;

I have made a better version for the scanner, but it only works on a chart (see Match in image). But it is not producing the same values in the scanner. It appears to not work accurately for the scans you want.

Also, the scan would not work against all stocks or other large lists. For example, it woud run against the Russel 1000, but not the Russell 2000 or 3000 (TOS overflow error).

input timeframe = {Day, Week, default Month};

def cond     = if timeframe == timeframe."Month"
               then GetMonth() != GetMonth()[1]
               else if timeframe == timeframe."Week"
               then GetWeek() != GetWeek()[1]
               else GetYYYYMMDD() != GetYYYYMMDD();

profile vol = VolumeProfile("startNewProfile" = cond, "onExpansion" = no, "numberOfProfiles" = 10, "value area percent" = 70);

def vah =  vol.GetHighestValueArea();
def vah1 = if vah != vah[1]
           then vah[1]
           else vah1[1];
def vah2 = if vah1 != vah1[1]
           then vah1[1]
           else vah2[1];

           then val1[1]
           else val2[1];

AddLabel(getback == 2, getback+" "+timeframe+"s Back: VAH " + vah2 + " POC: " + Poc2 + " VAL: " + val2, Color.WHITE);

#plot scan = close >= round(poc);

Thanks a ton, @SleepyZ . For the scan, other than removing the "#" sign before the "plot scan" , do I need to change anything else.

That works on a chart. Note that geback is just used for label display in that code.

The below works in the scanner, but with you knowing that it does not match with the actual volumeprofile.

Also, I now understand what your MAX:W means. For a best match of the scan to a chart, it is best to use a the same timeframe as your scan setting and code setting, ie: day, week, or month, POC is the current profile, POC1 is 1 day back and POC2 is 2 days back.

THis program is display every day. I need help to adjust it to display in one day (today only). THank you!!!
