		In the Worden Report for 3/7/08 Sir 9-Day Periods describes a system using simple selection criteria, but the stated criteria is nonsense (at least on my screen).  Step 1 includes: 
 
"... stocks which meet the following simple criteria: CC3. That's it...." 
 
CC3 has no meaning in Telechart, and it causes an error message. 
 
In describing the system logic in step 3, the author suggests using a percent true indicator to verify probability thusly: 
 
" ...if using percent true, just put in C>C1 and C1                 " 
 
Again, makes no sense (even though there's no error message in using the statement). 
 
I'm pretty sure there's some missing text in this Worden Report, maybe because of a format translation, or maybe because of my software and machine.  But I can't see the correct PCF functions the author is trying to convey. 
 
Can someone post the correct functions so I can see them?  Or is everyone seeing the same erroneous text?

		 Well by golly I sure thought someone else would have asked the question before I got around to it.  And they already had, by about 2 hours, but it didn't turn up in my text searches.  So I posted the question.  Next time I'll try updating first!

		 For the beginners... how does one set the chart up to be in a 9 day timeframe?  Thanks!

		 Move your mouse over the "daily" in the  top 
chart. Click and select "9 day". 
  
(each open high low close will  represent 
9 days of data)

		Is there a reason that the chart has to be set to  the 9 day interval? I'm missing that point. It seems as if even a daily chart would work.

		Thats just the way he chose to do it. 
 
If you read the links you will see that it can be daily. 
 
 
Thanks

		The author suggests using a percent true indicator to verify probability 
" ...if using percent true, just put in C>C1 and C1 ....." 
Can someone post the correct functions for the above criteria?  
Thanks

		cn500, 
Update: Allende (Sir 9-Day) outlines his intent in his Sunday, March 09, 2008 9:58:24 AM ET post in Trying to understand syntax of today's Worden Report. 
 
I am not going to guess at how Sir 9-Day Periods would complete the formula. The formula isn't actually used except to verify his statement that, "The probability is very high, that after the initial two 9 day periods which are down, there will not be two more 9 day periods which are down." 
 
One way to write a formula for use in a Custom Indicator for the most recent 4-Bars being down would be: 
 
Last 4-Periods Down: 
 
C < C1 AND C1 < C2 AND C2 < C3 AND C3 < C4 
 
One way to write a formula for us in a Custom Indicator for the most recent 4-Bars not being down would be: 
 
NOT(C < C1 AND C1 < C2 AND C2 < C3 AND C3 < C4)
