Ken,
 
See if there is any part of this you can use.
 
It's old and I haven't updated it but it does return data for 
any point along the lines which can be changed with PARAM/OPTIMIZE.

  Volume breakout scan?
  Satpak....Please share any solution you get for 
  this problem.I have been looking for the answer to this for several 
  years.One of our board members, Dimitris Tsokakis, found the 
  foundation of apossible solution when he wrote a plotting trendline 
  routine which wouldplot parallel and horizontal trendlines over the 
  prices. You couldspecify the width (small to meet the needs of the chart 
  formation youand I are interested in) and then be prepared to look for the 
  upwardbreakout.  This is sometimes called the Cooper 
  breakout.However, Dimitris' solution would only plot trendlines from 
  the currentday backward a specified number of bars.  What was and is 
  needed is amodification that plots backward say 10 days starting at any 
  point youspecify in the past (historical).  Then the variables of the 
  patternplus the volume component like you mention could be 
  backtested.This is on DT's "B-Priority" list right now and I agree 
  with hispriority, as he is working several other issues for the members 
  here andfor himself.KenYour name is

  amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [amibroker] Flat Base High Volume 
  breakout scan?I am looking to develop a scan that would return "flat 
  base pattern" stocks, priced 0.25 to $5, which exhibit a base pattern for 
  the last 3 months or more.I suppose this could be expressed as 
  "never exceeded XXX % +/-" of its average daily price for the last 3 
  months. (??)I also want to include in the scan a volume component, so 
  that the above flat base pattern stocks are screened and then AmiBroker 
  looks for 2-times or more volume, along with an accompanying price 
  increase.  This possibly could be done via OBV language.For a 
  "real world" example, please see IVAN, MITK, CYAN.   Please note 
  the "flat base" which existed along with lackluster volume, and then 
  accompanying upward price action and volume increase.That is in a 
  nutshell what I want to scan for.Sorry for the lengthy post, its 1:30 
  AM at my house and I am now looking for outside help with 
  this.good nightSend
