  this one's a bit harder.  the pseudo code would be too
 
 find a high within the last X days
 find stocks that are approaching the high from below within Y%

  using a 6 week high, I believe this is what you are looking for. Change the pos to whatever percent you like. 
 
 set{hi6w, high 6 week high} 
 set{lo6w, low 6 week low} 
 set{range, hi6w - lo6w} 
 set{cpos, close - lo6w} 
 set{pos, cpos / range} 
 show stocks where pos is above 0.99 
 and high is less than 6 week high
 
 and draw high 6 week high

  =)
 
 sorry, just eager to learn.
 
 
 
 is there a way to set a specific interval for "approaching"
 
 lets say wihtin 1% of the high?
 
  	    
 
 look at EOP. the two week high is not correct on the chart.

  I was just using the 6 week high and low as an example. Feel free to fill in whatever you like.

  yea, it's updating. You'll definatly see results. use a date offset of 1 for now.
 
 It may help to take out "high is less than 6 week high"

  thanks elroz, but why did you write "high 6 week high" instead of "6 week high"?  seems like "high 6 week high" would be a syntax error
