Appreciate it, working on making the criteria now. That's hard. I'm getting an "at least one plot should be defined" error

Still having issues

1. Scan that looks for 200SMA not moving average but Simple Moving Average to be within x% of Ichimoku(). "Span A"

2. Scan that looks for wicks rejecting 200SMA

Price within X percent of 200sma?

So I am working on a project where I need to add a custom study in my scan that will scan for stocks that have closes within (whatever %) of the 200sma.

I've tried to write it out visually here for those who want to see it

Close is within 10% of SimpleMovingAvg("length") = 200)."SMA"

here you go, here is the complete code
to change the percent just change 0.10 to whatever percent you want. 0.10 defines 10%

Code

#Code Below price is within 10 Percent of 200SMA
#
def ma = SimpleMovingAvg(close,200);
def percent = ma*0.10;
plot scan = absvalue(close - ma) <= percent;

Reference this in the scanner. It will return if price is inside the desired percentage above or below the selected moving average

Code

declare lower;

input percentWithin = 10;
input price = close;
input length = 200;
input avgType = AverageType.SIMPLE;

def ma = MovingAverage(avgType, price, length);

plot WithinPercent = Between(price, 
                             ma * (1 - (percentWithin / 100)),
                             ma * (1 + (percentWithin / 100)));

I need a similar study that shows a user-defined percentage band around the price bars itself?
