Recent All Time Highs?

[Airtower]

Hello, I have found some coding that is close to what I am looking for but not sure how to incorporate the recency of hitting an All Time High.
Simply put, I am just looking to create a script that checks a Daily chart over the last 500 trading days, that is looking for an New All Time High created in the last 15 days. I sued this code from a previous post to find if a stock is close to the All Time High but not sure how I can modify it (or create a new custom code) to find what i am looking for above...

# Cond = at least 95%-99% of all time high that is from at least 6 to 52 weeks ago....and is now advancing towards all time high again.
def thisBar = if isNaN(close[-1]) and !isNaN(close)
then barNumber()
else thisBar[1];
def hhBar = if high == highest(high, 350)
then barNumber()
else hhBar[1];
def hh = if high == highest(high, 350)
then high
else hh[1];
plot Cond = highestAll(thisBar) - highestAll(hhBar) > 5 and
between(close, hh * .975, hh * .9995) and
isAscending(close, 5);

here is something to experiment with

declare lower;
input days_back = 500;
input within_days = 15;
def x = GetMaxValueOffset(high, days_back);
plot z = x <= within_days;
addchartbubble(0, -.3, x, color.yellow, no);

Thank you! I'll work on it and see if I can get this to work for me. Much appreciated!

why mention 500 days, if you only care about the last 15 days?
forget my previous post. i had an idea, but didn't test it thoroughly.

here is a version that works
it looks at the past 15 bars and draws 2 pulse lines, that go to 1.
. higher , =1 each time a new high happens
. recenthi , =1 when a new high happens in the last 15 bars

declare lower;
def na = double.nan;
def bn = barnumber();
#input bars_back = 500;
input within_bars = 15;
def hi = if bn == 1 then high
 else max(high, hi[1]);

def higher = if bn == 1 then 0
 else (hi != hi[1]);
def recenthi = sum(higher,within_bars)>0;

plot z = higher;
plot y = recenthi;

Thank you again for the quick reply!
Mainly, I was using 500 days to determine the actual All Time High in the stock. I could go further back but 500 seems to capture enough of a significant All Time High for my purposes. Its a simple strategy. Basically looking for a recent or (about to happen) new All Time High in the stock and entering a position Long on it on the day it breaks out, if it is strong through that day. So I was working on creating a scanner that I could have running to show me any Stock that is near or has just broken out to new All Time Highs. Then, I would use discretion to enter Long or not.

i am starting to understand what you are after. your words were confusing, and i just realized why.
saying all time high and 500 day high is confusing. then your code used 350....

if you want a 500 day high, then say just that. don't say all time high.
working on another ver....

a lower code for experimenting with

#higher_hi_all_time_01

#https://usethinkscript.com/threads/recent-all-time-highs.18536/
#Recent All Time Highs?

declare lower;
def na = Double.NaN;
def bn = BarNumber();

input bars_back = 500;
input within_bars = 15;

# skip over within bars to find long term highest hi
def hi_long = highest(high[within_bars], bars_back);
def hi_recent = highest(high, within_bars);
def new_hi = hi_recent > hi_long;

plot z = new_hi;

#----------------------------
# following code is not needed, just for experimenting

input test1 = no;
addlabel(test1, bars_back, color.cyan);
addlabel(test1, within_bars, color.cyan);

addchartbubble(test1 and !isnan(close), 0,
 hi_long + " L\n" +
 hi_recent + " R\n" +
 new_hi 
, color.yellow, no);

# w is true during a 'qty' group of bars, that is 'from_last_bar' bars away from the last bar
#input bar_qty = 7;
#input from_last_bar = 11;
def bar_qty = bars_back;
def from_last_bar = within_bars;
def w = !isnan(close[-from_last_bar]) and isnan(close[-(bar_qty+from_last_bar)]);
plot z1 = if test1 and w then 0.5 else na;
z1.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.LINE_VS_POINTS);
