May be a gap or just a candlestic that breakout above the consolidation area. thanks.

Worden Trainer Joined: 10/7/2004 Posts: 65,138		I cannot algorithmicly define what you might see as a rectangle as that would be a subjective or an "I know it when I see it" type" description. What is required to identify something using a Condition Formula or Scan is as specific unambiguous definition. It needs to be objectively defined. Is a few days the same as three days or some other number? Is the box defined by being within a certain net range or possibly a certain percent range compared to price, daily range, a longer period average or maximum range or something else entirely? -Bruce Personal Criteria Formulas TC2000 Support Articles

Worden Trainer Joined: 10/7/2004 Posts: 65,138		I may be misunderstanding the definition, but you may wish to try using the following Daily Condition Formula as a Sort or Scan Condition: MAXH10.1 / MINL10.1 <= 1.02 AND (C >= 1.015 * MAXH10.1 OR C <= .985 * MINL10.1) Indicators, Sorting & Scanning PCF Formula Descriptions Handy PCF example formulas to help you learn the syntax of PCFs! -Bruce Personal Criteria Formulas TC2000 Support Articles
