How can I scan to find stocks that have moved up or down consistantly over each of the last five days?

Here are two conditions to try:

UP or Down 5-days in a row:
(C>C1 AND C1>C2 AND C2>C3 AND C3>C4 AND C4>C5) OR (C<C1 AND C1<C2 AND C2<C3 AND C3<C4 AND C4<C5)

This next one will return the NUMBER of up closes in the last 5 days (makes for a nifty sort)
ABS(C>C1)+
ABS(C1>C2)+
ABS(C2>C3)+
ABS(C3>C4)+
ABS(C4>C5)
