Trying to write a PCF for 2 days with red candles yesterday open being lower than day before close (creating a 2 day down trend) and then today having a gap up from yesterday's high, with a green candle. 

Scan shows only 2 results (CI, HON) and day 2 (day before yesterday) is a green candle. Also Open today is not above yesterday's high.  What am I doing wrong?

(C2<O2) AND (O1<C2) AND (C1<O1) AND (O>H1) AND (C>O)

Close 2 is < open 2 should show red candle.???

Also open today is > high of yesterday ???

Both charts show yesterday's candle red which matches C1<O1 and today's candle green which matches C>O

Open is above high and day 2 candle is red.

Sure you are on a daily chart?

 

 

Thanks

Both CI and HON appear to meet your requirements on a Daily chart. I think there must be something about the chart that is wrong. diceman already mentioned checking to see that the chart is Daily and you might also want to check that the chart is scrolled all the way to the right.

Hi Bruce, How are you? The "MIN" pcf is not working. The MAX function is working fine.You can see the drawing from the "Custom % PCF True Indicator". MAXC4 > C works fine, but not the  MINC4 > c   Thanks! Joseph

MINC4 cannot be greater than C because C is part of MINC4. It is possible for MINC4 to be less than C, so the following may be what you want.

MINC4 < C
