Can someone help me set a scan for finding tickers that are above their opening 5 minute high? In other words, tickers that are for 5 minute open range breakouts.

I have it where my charts automatically draw lines for the 5 minute high and low. I'm just trying to get a scan to show me just those stocks that are above the 5 minute high instead of individually looking through each ticker.

Thanks for your help!

Put it in custom and 5min scan.


# scan close above 5 min high


def RTH = if getTime() >= RegularTradingStart(getYYYYMMDD()) and
secondsTillTime(1000) > 0

then 1

else 0;

def "RTH First Bar" = if SecondsTillTime(0930) == 0 and

SecondsFromTime(0930) == 0

then barNumber()

else "RTH First Bar"[1];

def "RTH First Bar High" = if barNumber() == HighestAll("RTH First Bar")

then high

else Double.NaN;
Plot CloseProximity = close > HighestAll("RTH First Bar High");
