I'm trying to do more back testing and I'd like to have this PCF checked to see if  it is actually doing what I think it's doing. If I'm overlooking something or can do it a better way, please let me know!

The number of times in the last 250 bars a 3 to 1 target (3 * (C-L)) + C would have been hit without going below the entry candles low, within 10 bars of entry. For entry, the AvgC50 must be moving up, and the Close must be higher than the Open.

CountTrue(C9>O9 AND AvgC50.9 > AvgC50.10 AND MinL10 = L9 AND MaxH10 > ((C9 - L9) * 3) + C9,250)

Thanks!

Assuming everything before MINL10 is the criteria you are testing, then yes, it looks correct to be.

The only thing I would think you might want to consider changing if you only neeed to "hit" the target instead of exceeding it would be to use to replace MAXH10 > with MAXH10 >= instead.
