The basic formula for an Inside Bar would be:

L1 < L AND H < H1

The Inside Bar Conditions from StockFinder are Inside Bar - reversal to downside:

If Price.High < Price.High(1) AndAlso _
    Price.Low > Price.Low(1) AndAlso _
    Price.High(1) = Price.MaxHigh(10) AndAlso _
    Math.Abs(Price.Open - Price.Close) < (Price.high - Price.Low) * .25 AndAlso _
    Price.Close < Price.Open Then Pass

Which becomes:

H < H1 AND L > L1 AND H1 = MAXH10 AND ABS(O - C) < (H - L) * .25 AND C < O

And Inside Bar - reversal to upside:

If Price.High < Price.High(1) AndAlso _
    Price.Low > Price.Low(1) AndAlso _
    Price.Low(1) = Price.MinLow(10) AndAlso _
    Math.Abs(Price.Open - Price.Close) < (Price.High - Price.Low) * .25 AndAlso _
    Price.Close > Price.Open Then Pass

Which becomes:

H < H1 AND L > L1 AND L1 = MINL10 AND ABS(O - C) < (H - L) * .25 AND C > O

You can create any of these as Condition Formulas in TC2000 version 12 and then use them to Scan the WatchList.
