Looking for stocks within a given percentage of one year, two year or all time high.
For example:
close is within 3 percent of 2 year high
I can't get the phrase right (close is within 3 % of 2 year high).
Thanks, Rick

Thanks four,
I don't believe I worded my question correctly. I'm looking to find the close of a stock to be within a percentage of its historical high...regardless of when it was.
In running the filter below one of the stocks it pulls up is KNL. In looking at a chart of KNL it appears the "52 week high" actually accrued that day (2/4/11).
Find stocks where the close is less than 1 percent below the 52 week high
Volume > 750000
close > 15
in essence I'm looking for the price to be approaching from below and falling just short of reaching its historical High (excluding the close of that day).
I do realize that stock fetcher only goes back so far...not sure how far though.
Thanks, Rick

Thanks mktmole,
I'm guessing that one filter is telling the performance broken into three segments for the last 300 days and the other filter is looking back 120 days.
Not really what I'm looking for but I appreciate the help.

Might be better to separate 1year and 2year and run separately, maybe.

Thank you SAFeTRADE, that's pretty slick.
Its showing a close within 5 to 1% of the 1 and 2 year high...right?

Is there any way to exclude stocks where today is the one or two year high?
