How to scan for Lower Kelt, Middle Kelt, and Upper Kelt?

[mastertrader]

I am trying to set up a scan defining if EMA 9 is less than / crossing Lower Kelt...similarly if EMA 9 is greater than / crosses the Lower Kelt and so on...How would I go about doing it?  Appreciate a screenshot.

if (EMA_Line(9) > KeltnerChannels_Top(20,10,1)) { SetColorAndShape("K.Top", PBShape.Default, 0xFF0AFF54); TriggerAlert("K.Top"); SetScanResult(@"K.Top"); return; }
if (EMA_Line(9) < KeltnerChannels_Bottom(20,10,1)) { SetColorAndShape("K.Bottom", PBShape.Default, 0xFFFF4E4E); TriggerAlert("K.Bottom"); SetScanResult(@"K.Bottom"); return; }

Hi Jerry,  Does the above needs to be configured in Switch To Advanced section?  In the regular Scan/Paintbar Edit, I am not able manually add KeltnerChannels_Top(20,10,1)

You add Keltner Channels. Then you click the "Edit Params" button to specify which parameters you want to assign to that indicator.

"Any Params", if checked, will either set the default parameters for the indicator or take the existing indicator on the chart.

Awesome.  Tried that. However getting errors. Also, on Edit Params, I don't see an option to add, KeltnerChannels_Top(20,10,1), KelternerChannels_Middle(20,10,1), and KeltnerChannels_Bottom(20,10,1)? How would I enter this information into the scan? Appreciate it.

Never mind. Figured it out -:)🙏

By the way you do not need to use advanced mode for the stuff I gave. Note that internally all simple mode gets converted to advanced anyway. And for each simple mode rule, we show the corresponding advanced text on the bottom. That is what I was copying
