  Hi I am a newbie.  My interest lies in finding stocks that move up and down within a channel.  I tried the following but I wonder if this is even the right approach?  
 
 set{rHi, top    linear regression line(ch)}  /* ?? get value of top regression channel */
 set{rLo, bottom linear regression line(ch)}  /* ?? get value of bottom regression channel */
 set{countHi, count(high is near rHi,100)}    /* count occurances high is near top channel */
 set{countLo, count(LOW is near rLo ,100)}    /* count occurances low is near BOTTOM */
 do not draw Top    Linear Regression Line(100,.5) 
 do not draw bottom linear regression line(100)
 draw Top    Linear Regression Line(50,.5) 
 draw bottom linear regression line(50)
 add column countHi
 add column countLo
 sort column 4 ascending
 chart-length is 100
 countHi > 4 and countLo > 1                      
 and close is between 5 and 30
 and the average volume(90) > 1000000
 
 I have also tried this approach:
 
 set{tx, 5}
 set{HH, count(high equal high 50 day high, 50)}
 set{ll, count(low  equal low  50 day low, 50)}
 show stock where 
 hh > tx and ll > tx
 and add column hh
 and add column ll
 and do not draw the 10 week high 
 and do not draw the 10 week low
 and do not draw hh
 and do not draw ll
 and do not draw tx
 add do not draw 10 week high
 add do not draw 10 week low
 add  10 week low
 and the 50 day high is less than the 102 percent of the 100 day low
 and chart-length is 200
 and close is between 5 and 30
 and the average volume(90) > 1000000
 sort column 4 descending
 draw Top    Linear Regression Line(50,.5) 
 draw bottom linear regression line(50)
 
 But I realize that I don't know how to force the regression lines to span the full chart.
 Thank you very much for your help, SE.
