You'll need to convert to TC2000 programing syntax but this may give you an idea.

if c >= c[60] * 1.5 then alert = true; {150% rise}
if c <= c[60] * .5 then alert = true; {50% decline}

Depending on your definition of rise and decline you might try this:
if H >= c[60] * 1.5 then alert = true; {150% rise}
if L <= c[60] * .5 then alert = true; {50% decline}

or this:
if H >= H[60] * 1.5 then alert = true; {150% rise}
if L <= L[60] * .5 then alert = true; {50% decline}

If you post some code we can probably figure out how TC2000 inputs, variables and alert calls work so you can get your scans running.

Here's an alternate approach that returns true if the conditions met anytime during the last 3 months. You'll need to convert it to TC2000.

var: decline(false), rise(false), both(false);

if lowest(L,60)[1] < c[60]*.5 then decline=true;
if highest(H,60)[1] > c[60]*1.5 then rise=true;
if lowest(L,60)[1] < c[60]*.5 and highest(H,60)[1] > c[60]*1.5 then both=true;
