Has anyone written a scan with multiple dates?
I'm trying to write a scan where Aroon Up (20) has hit 100 for the first time today after being below 30. Driving me nuts.

and [Aroon UP(20) x 100]
But that only says, Aroon was below 100 yesterday and is above it today.
If you want to specify that this is the first crossing in x bars, then you need to use the max( ) function, so maybe
and [1 day ago max(??, Aroon Up(20)) < 100]
That says Aroon has not been above 100 for ?? bars.
Then you need to use the min( ) function to test for at least one value below 30 over some number of bars, e.g.
and [1 day ago min(??, Aroon Up(20)) < 30]
