Scan for stocks with decreasing weekly options volatility

[lance]

Is there an existing scan (on can someone create one) that scans stocks with weekly options where the IV is decreasing from 1 week to another? i.e. show me stocks with weeklies whose IV is higher in the current expiration than in next week's expiration.

From Mr. Script Tue Sep-02-2014:

# Implied Volatility percentile is between
#Share link is for a scan the searches for stocks as potential option trading candidates
#Run WEEKLYS, Last > 11, Mkt Cap >50B

input min = 16;
input max = 84;
def vol = impVolatility();
rec data = if !isNaN(vol) then vol else data[1];
def hi = highest(data,252);
def lo = lowest(data,252);
def perct = (data - lo)*100 / (hi - lo);

plot scan = min < perct  AND perct < max;

You can do something like current implied volatility is less than the previous week's IV.

I was looking for something where i can scan the IV of the current week expiration vs next week's. That scan does not yield proper results. Please advise - thanks for all the help thus far
