What criteria are you using for the color of the candles? Net Change or the Open vs Close?

If Net Change, then three red candles proir to the candle would be C4 > C3 and C3 > C2 and C2 > C1

If Open vs Close, use C3<O3 and C2<O2 and C1<O1

Note that you can shorten StockGuy's formulas somewhat (not much) if you are using TC2000 v17 (but not in earlier versions of TC2000).

For the net change version:

CountTrue(C2 > C1, 3) = 3

For the open vs close version:

CountTrue(C1 < O1, 3) = 3

It isn't a significant saving with only three bars, but it can be quite a savings if you were looking at 10 bars instead or longer formulas.
