Is it possible to scan for stocks in this fashion:

"Scan for stocks that has reached its high greater than 10 times during a 6 month period"

EDIT: to emphasize its usefulness, consider a stock that has the highest number of reaching highs during the period.. its consistently going up for a reason.

The present stock screens cannot scan for this. The trouble with such a filter is that many stocks in an up-trend will be making new highs on almost every consecutive day.

Doesn't that provide enough incentive to implement? :-)
