I noticed in Blocks I can create a condition that shows an indicator moving down  (slowly, quickly, very fast, etc.) What do I select if I just want to know that the indicator has been trending down over the last three days (regardless of speed/timing)? For example, how would I create a condition with the RSI moving down for the last three days?

Choose Moving down.  Set the slider all the way to the top and the Move Period to 3.

That's not really true. 

Choose moving down in the condition dialog.
Set the slider all the way to the top.
Then select the options pulldown and set it to true 3 out of 3 times.

dannig,

When you say "been trending down over the last three days" do you mean:

1. it is down three days in a row?
2. it is lower now that it was two days ago?

if #1 set the move period to 1 and the true 3 out of 3
if #2 set the move period to 3 and the true to 1 out of 1
