Hello all,

I would like to create a scan that lists all stocks whose price is within two MAs:

High of 3EMA and Close of 8EMA

Is there a way to create that sort of screen in TOS? I wish I could code that up, but I'm not smart enough. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy the script and post it into the scan feature. A simple request. Verified to work. Beware, your criteria is tight unless I misunderstand your post. The criteria looks for candles with a high <= 3ema and close >= 8ema. Change the high >= for testing purposes if you are not getting any search results.

# Begin scan script

plot Action = high <= expAverage(close, 3) and close >= expAverage(close, 8);

# End scan script
