  I am trying to write a filter that duplicates some of Jeff Coopers filters.
 The one that is giving me difficulty is:
 
 Today's range (high minus low) must be equal to or larger than the largest daily range of the previous nine trading days.
 
 I have tried to apply and modify the Indicators.....Day Range...Average Day Range....Day Point Range, without anything satisfactory.
 
 I have pretty much the rest of it except for this one indicator.
 
 Thanks,

  Why not post them?
 
 I'd be interested in having a look at them. I'm sure others as well.

  I figured it out.
 
 Expansions Breakout Buys:
 SET{DIFF, HIGH - LOW} diff reached a new 9 days high 
 and high reached a new 2 month high 
 and close between 30 and 50 
 and close is above the open 
 and Average Volume(90)is below 200000
 
 Expansions Breakout Sells:
 SET{DIFF, HIGH - LOW} diff reached a new 9 days high 
 and low reached a new 2 month low 
 and close between 30 and 50 
 and close is below the open 
 and Average Volume(90)is below 200000
 
 1-2-3-4's Buys (three down):
 ADX(14) is above 30 
 +DI(14) is above -DI(14) 
 and low has been decreasing for 3 days 
 and close between 30 and 50 
 and Average Volume(90)is below 200000 
 
 1-2-3-4's Sells (three up):
 ADX(14) is above 30 
 +DI(14) is below -DI(14) 
 and close between 30 and 50 
 and high has been increasing for 3 days 
 and Average Volume(90)is below 200000
 
 There is another scan for the 1-2-3-4's except instead of (low has been decreasing for 3 days). You have 2 down days and an inside day. But I haven't figured out how to write it yet.
 
 The thing that is not included in the above filters is...Jeff Cooper only trades in stocks that has high institutional sponsorship. I don't know if there is an indicator for this or not.
 
 These are only two of the many his book "Hit and Run Trading".
