"Such a microcosm may encompass both the macro picture, such as where the stock is presently situated in its past 6-month range "

I wrote that display:

Fetcher[

/* PRICE POSITION PERCENT DISPLAY */

/* enter your Upper Limit criteria */
set{UpperLim, High 26 week High}

/* enter your Lower Limit criteria */
set{LowerLim, Low 26 week Low}

set{LimDiff, UpperLim minus LowerLim}
set{PPDiff, CLOSE minus LowerLim}
set{PPDiv, PPDiff / LimDiff}
set{BallOn, PPDiv * 100}

set{PCT, LimDiff / LowerLim}

add column BallOn
add column UpperLim
add column LowerLim

close above 20
volume above 20000000

"...I would like to see the one final score based on the "whole picture"... "

This would ok for SELECTING stocks to trade.

But how would you add its position in the 6 month range to the other indicators you are testing?

It would need to rely on if-then conditionals. Suppose ure a value investor with these entry criteria:

(1) The DJIA is below its 50-day moving average;
(2) price is below 10% of the previous 6-month trading range;
(3) RSI(2) is below 1.

Taking ure "BallOn" example into consideration, I've devised the following ad-hoc filter:

Fetcher[
set{UpperLim, High 26 week High}
set{LowerLim, Low 26 week Low}

set{LimDiff, UpperLim minus LowerLim}
set{PPDiff, CLOSE minus LowerLim}
set{PPDiv, PPDiff / LimDiff}
set{BallOn, PPDiv * 100}

set{10pct, count(ballon below 10,1) * count(RSI(2) below 1,1)}
set{if, count(ind(^dji,close) below ind(^dji,MA(50)),1)}
set{then,if * 10pct}

then above 0
]

I'm not sure whether my answer adequately addresses ure question but I hope it will lead to the right direction. Of course, this is just one of many ways to play the if-then scenario. As I already mentioned, this is more chanllenging than I previous thought.
