    Any suggestions on a screener that can find stocks in a narrow 6 month trading range?

    One definition might be "highest high of the last 30 days / lowest low of the last 30 days <= 1.1".

    But I know that most screeners don't have that capability.

    I know that I can get $400+ programs that can easily do this. But I am looking to see if there is something less expensive that does screening only.

    less expensive way to get those programs would be P2P

    I made one for Ninja Trader. http://blog.traderwerks.com/2008/08/23/narrow-range-market-analyzer-scan/ You can use Ninja Trader for free.

    Can the free version get end of day stock data?

    I know it can get Yahoo! end of data for free for stocks. Other than that, I think you can get it from your broker connection, like IB.
