I am terrible at coding, so I was hoping some of you would be able to convert this to
something usable in SF. This is a tradingview code.

"The FollowLine indicator is a trend following indicator. The blue/red lines are activated when the price closes above the upper Bollinger band or below the lower one.

Once the trigger of the trend direction is made, the FollowLine will be placed at High or Low (depending of the trend).

An ATR filter can be selected to place the line at a more distance level than the normal mode settled at candles Highs/Lows."

So, this shouldn't be so hard to make a scan after all. I will give it a try later tonight - after trading session.
