I would like to reverse engineer a scan I saw that seemed to be pretty effective for doing credit spreads. I would like to identify optionable stocks and ETF's that have a Monthly price greater then a simple 10 period moving average of the monthly price. The second aspect is to then identify the stocks and ETF's that are close to the lower Daily Keltner Channel line or at least below the midpoint line of the Daily Keltner Channel (preferably heading upwards after being lower). Is this possible to scan for with StockFetcher? The reverse would also be for credit spreads in the opposite direction. This gives a pretty favorable risk since you already can be profitable even if the stock or ETF go in your direction, stays flat, or even moves a bit against you.
In simple terms, Looks for an instrument in an established up (or down) trend with the Monthly and identifies the pullback with the Daily Keltner Channel. Any and all thoughts are appreciated, and ALL coding help is GREATLY appreciated.
Lastly, I would like to identify the top most active 150-200 options on stocks and ETFs and plug them in to the scan as the only instruments to use. I found Barcharts.com to have a useful daily list for stocks ( https://www.barchart.com/options/most-active/stocks ) and ETF's ( https://www.barchart.com/options/most-active/etfs ). I just need to watch for a few weeks to find the top 150-200 that are on these lists every day to pluck out the one day wonders.
Thanks in advance for any help given.

Can someone tell me if combining a monthly and a daily in a scan is possible with Stock Fetcher? How do I code for a monthly indicator- what is syntax? Thanks
