Simple Coding Help - No Promise.

Hello All
I was trying to make value charts as in "Mark helweg Value Chart" but constantly getting syntax error.
I am trying to change value of the same bar when it crosses 4 or 8 to yellow and Red respectively.
can anyone help me with this charting.
greatly appreciate
regards

Arguments in these lines have to be modified

Hi Friends
Can anybody please provide AFL for exploration for stocks which are opened COMPLETE GAP UP & GAP DOWN..i.e which can give me the list of selected stocks where TODAYS OPEN >YESTERDAYS HIGH- GAP UP
TODAYS OPEN<YESTERDAY LOW -GAP DOWN
IN EXPLORATION- gap up stocks shows green colour & gap down stocks show red color
Thanks
Set periodicity in Analysis settings to Daily and click explore:

PHP:
_SECTION_BEGIN("Prev Day High Low");

H1 = ref(H, -1);
L1 = ref(L, -1);

Filter = (O > H1) OR (O < L1);

_SECTION_END();

Hi Vivek Bro
I am not software or programme savvy..But I have 1 afl, see if it can help your purpose
_SECTION_BEGIN("MA");
Len = Param("Periods", 30, 10, 60, 10 );
Av = MA(C, Len);
Color = IIf(Av > Ref(Av,-1) AND C > Av, colorBlue, IIf(Av < Ref(Av,-1) AND C < Av, colorRed, colorLightGrey));
Plot(Av, "", Color, ParamStyle("Av",styleThick, maskAll));
_SECTION_END();

If you get pre-open data, then you will know it at 9:09am else you should get it when your first tick updates, ie. 9:15:01 onwards.
