How would I change this filter to adjust the length of the cup and handle to XX number of days and show a breakout above the handle? Any ideas?

Duke, this is my cup and handle filter. The handle is max 30 days and the whole pattern about 90 days.
Change these values to your liking.

Fetcher[
set{x,price/high 90 day high}
set{x2,price/high 30 day high}
set{y,x/x2}

/*make sure price is below left edge of the cup*/
y between 0.95 and 1 do not draw y

/*make sure price is near 30 day high*/
x2 between 0.975 and 1.02 do not draw x2

/*make sure cup bottom is below handle bottom*/
low 30 day low 1 % above low 90 day low
do not draw low 30 day low do not draw low 90 day low

/*filter out buyouts*/
average day range above 1% do not draw average day range

add column industry

/*sort intraday by relative volume*/
add column relvol
set{avgvolspy,ind(spy,average volume(20))}
set{volspy1,ind(spy,volume)}
set{spyvol,volspy1/avgvolspy}
set{xvol,volume/average volume(20)}
set{relvol,xvol/spyvol}

sort column 6 descending

/*buystop area*/
add column high 40 day high


sort column 7 descending
set{vr,average volume(30)*price}
vr above 4000000 do not draw vr
chartlength is 34 weeks
price above 5
draw ma(10)
draw ma(50)

Thanks mahkoh, this is what I have been using for breakouts. Run the filter and eyeball for the cup with handle.

and volume is 50% above average volume(30)
close is > 1
average volume(30) > 500000
