Use this code:
((bid-high) / high) *100
What does this one simple line of code do?
I like to arrange my watchlists and scan data in a way so I can almost see the chart per the data being displayed without having to actually look at a chart. Does that make sense?
We want to avoid buying at the highs at all times; you should already be in the trade. So, when when a stock has put in its high for the day we want to look for pullbacks for potential dip buys to get back in per whatever your methodology is. However, we still want to buy at a discount,
What that one simple line of code does is return the % that the current bid is below the high of the day. Why the bid and not the close of the 1 minute bar? Because it is extra code and that can take up resources and CPU power that may cause a lag. The current bid is pretty much the current close +/- a few cents given the spread so it is close enough.

Question, is there a way to do an a/h movers scan? I use your p/m scan method but it feels like it doesn't work for a/h. Please advise. Thanks!
Arulles: it means the nubers of shared to trade at that Ask price went up, and down for red
Ronnee: Yes, in the stock hacker at the top select for all stocks then the next tab That Intersects with Lovers and Losers select Post-Market Movers
Ok makes sense
