Scan High Low Range not working

[Mike12]

i'm traing to define a range.

def HH = Highest(High,300);
def LL = lowest(low,300);

i'm traing to define a range.

def HH = Highest(High,300);
def LL = lowest(low,300);
Input highest = 8;
Input lowest = -8;
plot Scan = betwin (highest, lowest);

i don't understand what you are trying to do. you will have to elaborate,
try to describe what you want to see happen in tos.

what are the highest and lowest numbers ?
how are they to be used?
why 8 , -8 ?

how do you want to use hh and ll ?


when i'm stuck i make a chart study , that shows lines or values, so i can see what is going on.

i don't think this is what you want, but it is valid and plots a line, and may be a starting point.
this is a lower chart study, that checks if a stock price is between -8 and 8.

declare lower;

Input highest = 8;
Input lowest = -8;
input length = 300;

def HH = Highest(High, length);
def LL = lowest(low, length);

plot Scan = between(close, lowest, highest);

It runs without errors,
but the returned symbols is way far out of range (8-8).
I interested in a range of 300 days (close) without a day in it that range that exceeded the limit of (8, -8) If the reference point is the closing of the 301st day back.
meaning - with no any move that exceeds PC 8, -8 throughout that range from the reference point (301)

In addition, I would also like to add a degree that can be defined (e.g - 10 degree up slope) for the average slop of the entire range so i can defind it for - personal - channel up (if there is such a argument in TOS)

sorry, i'm still confused.

don't know what this range is ,
range (8-8)

don't know what this is
limit of (8, -8) .
no price will be negative, so don't understand why you want to compare a price to a negative number.

this is new info,
. the reference point is the closing of the 301st day back.
this will find the close 301 bars back.
def x = close[301];

no idea what this means, what is pc
exceeds PC 8, -8 throughout that range from the reference point (301)
