 What exactly do you mean by "closed within average daily range"?
 
 By definition, a stock ALWAYS closes within its daily range.
 
 Do you mean today's range is less than the average daily range?
 
 Can you provide an example of a stock that meets this criteria?

 How can I make a filter that will pick stocks that closed within the average daily volatility above the MA(20)?  (i.e. The close is within the distance from 0 to the volatility or that stock above the MA(20), so if the trading range of a stock was $1, I would want it chosen only if the close was within $1 from the MA(20))  I tried:
 Show stocks where close was within average daily range aboveMA(20)
 It didn't work?

 The average daily range is a variable that has a value.  (i.e. XYZ may have an average daily range of $1.32)  I would like to know if the close of that stock was between the MA(20) and the MA(20)+ $1.32.

 Thanks TheRumbledOne.  I'm new and didn't know how to set the variables.  I used your example and changed it a little using the average true range and it worked fine.  Thanks again.

 This is what I came up with:
 set{UpperLimit, average true range(35) + ma(35)}
 close above ma(35)
 close below UpperLimit
