 Hello,
I have created the following formula:
AVGV50 >= 1000 AND 10 < C <= 20 AND H >= MAXH40
When I test this for the stock symbol PYX, the values returned were
4687.22 >= 1000.00 AND 10.00 < 15.44 <= 20.00 AND 15.49 >= 15.49
yet the test result was FALSE.
Could you please why this is happening ?
Also I get the message that the market days needed to create the criterion was 51. How was the 51 days arrived at ?
Thanks.

 FALSE only means the formula was not TRUE for the ticker you tested on... in your case, the formula has a problem. You cannot string the logic. This formula should work:

AVGV50>=1000 AND C>10 AND C<=20 AND H=MAXH40

I removed the > from the H>=MAXH40. The high today cannot be greater than the MAXH40 because the high today is part of the MAXH40. At best, they can only be equal.
