is there a way, i can do this in stockcharts?
get the list of stocks that has the highest range in last 7 months?

i tried this and the results are not good even though i am oly checking it on the daily timeframe.
[type = stock] AND [Daily SMA(20,Daily Volume) > 400000] and [Range > 1 day ago Min (6, Range)]
and [exchange is NYSE]

    I think you want max instead of min:


    [type = stock]
    and [exchange is NYSE]
    and [sma(20, volume) > 400000]
    and [range > 1 day ago max(6, range)]

    If you want widest DAILY range in the last seven months, you need the number of days in seven months. There are approximately 21 trading days in a month on average, so 21 x 7 = 147; so substitute 147 for 6 in the last statement above.
