A Condition Formula for each of the 5-bars ending 1-bar ago having a negative net change could be written as:

C1 < C2 AND C2 < C3 AND C3 < C4 AND C4 < C5 AND C5 < C6

also is this the formula I would use ....for each candle going back six days making a lower low and a lower high

(L1 > L2) AND (L2 > L3) AND (L3 > L4) AND (L4 > L5) AND (L5 > L6) and  (h1 < h2) (h2 < h3) and (h3 < h4) and (h4 < h5) and (h5 < h6)

All of the symbols mentioned should return true for the Condition Formula given (and do). The closing prices for BXP, PCL, JCP, CTL, FDO & HCN were down for the five days in a row ending 5/31/2013. If you mean something else, we will need additional clarification from you.

If you are including the current bar, then a Condition Formula a symbol making both lower lows and higher highs for six days in a row would be:

L < L1 AND L1 < L2 AND L2 < L3 AND L3 < L4 AND L4 < L5 AND L5 < L6 AND H > H1 AND H1 > H2 AND H2 > H3 AND H3 > H4 AND H4 > H5 AND H5 > H6

If you are excluding the current bar, then the Condition Formula would be:

L1 < L2 AND L2 < L3 AND L3 < L4 AND L4 < L5 AND L5 < L6 AND L6 < L7 AND H1 > H2 AND H2 > H3 AND H3 > H4 AND H4 > H5 AND H5 > H6 AND H6 > H7

How would I write a PCF that shows a clear trend over the last 30 bars? up or down. 

Thank you

I really have no idea what you would see as a "clear trend". Maybe something like the following?

ADX14.14 > 30

I added this to the prebuilt recent uptrend and downtrend and I think it gives me what  I'm looking for.

Thank you
