[Jim Bennett] I'd like to develop two PCFs. One to find Buying Climaxes and another to find Selling Climaxes. I would like to use the Prudent Trader's definition where a buying climax is a new 250 day high followed by a close less than the close 5 days ago and a selling climax is a new 250 day low followed by a close higher than the close 5 days ago.

Here's what I've tried:  
Buying: MAXC10 > C250 AND C < C5
Selling : MINC10 < C250 AND C > C5

Don't seem to work.  Can you help please.

I'm not sure, but you may want to try something like the following:

Buying Climax:

MAXH10 > MAXH242.10 AND C < C5

Selling Climax:

MINL10 < MINL242.10 AND C > C5
