I have had great success this year trading gdx and gdxj
with the BPT 60 minute chart relying on the 60 period slow
stochastics coupled with trendlines and other indicators. But
the 60 period stochs really seem to catch the meat of the gold
trade. A crossover on the slow stochs above 20 has been
a high probability buy signal all year.
I am trying to figure out how to apply it to other vehicles and
backtest it. Does anyone happen to know how to create a
stockcharts scan where a 60 period stochastics crosses above
20? It is not as simple as I hoped. I am sure I will
figure it out eventually, but if by some chance someone here know
how, I'd appreciate the info.

Not true. I can do the scan on a daily timeframe but not 60 minutes. Might not be possible on this timeframe.
Intraday scans are not possible

Intraday scans are not possible on stockcharts.com. Does anyone know other platforms that could so this?

You can do realtime scanning in tradestation if you can write the code.
