Dimitri,

It was also unclear to me that is why a generic explore was provided.
How about this, set n last quotations and n=1.

/****************************************************/
dayavgRange=Ref(Sum((H-L),10),-1)/10;//average range for 10 periods
starting from yesterday

todaysrange=H-L;//todays range

Filter=todaysrange > DayavgRange; // only tickers meeting this criteria
will be displayed

AddColumn(dayavgRange,"AvgRange");
AddColumn(todaysrange,"todaysRange");
/**********************************************/

Again, we are only guessing what John is trying to achieve.
