Hello

Can you help me create a PCF that will look for daily charts that for the previous three candles (days) were under the  8 period moving average and then todays candle closed above the 8 period moving average

 
Thank you

Does the whole candle need to be below the 8 day MA for the previous three days or just the closes?

If the whole candle, then...

H3 < AVGC8.3 and H2 < AVGC8.2 and H1 < AVGC8.1 and C >  AVGC8

If only the closes, then...

C3 < AVGC8.3 and C2 < AVGC8.2 and C1 < AVGC8.1 and C >  AVGC8

Preferably but it doesn't have to. Would you be able to give me the PCF for both whole candle being below the 8 day MA for the previous three days and then one for just the closes below the 8 day MA for the previous three days?

The first formula in StockGuy's Thursday, April 23, 2015 3:38:52 PM post checks price being above now and the entire candle being below on the previous three bars.

The second formula in the same post checks price being above now and the closes being below on the previous three bars.
