 Trying to get this filter to produce stocks from a calculation of the center point of the true range and compare it to the center point of the real body and compares that to the close.
 
 Here is the filter I produced:
 
 set{true_range(High + Low /2)}
 set{real_body(Open + Close /2)}
 Show stocks where true_range < real_body
 and real_body < close
 
 My problem is it returns no (zero) stocks,
 
 Can someone point out what I have done wrong?
 
 Thanks Michael

 You tried to do 2 calculations in the set statements, afaik only 1 is permitted (I assume you meant (H+L)/2, what you wrote was H plus one half of the Low). Also, you omitted the comma needed to separate the 2 parts of the set bracket.
