Hi Bruce,

I was wonderinf how to combine two if then statements? I wanted to create a PCF where todays open must be between yesterdays open and close regardless if yesterday was green or red. I broke these up into two if then statements where

IF (C.1>O.1) THEN (O<C.1) AND (O>O.1)

and

IF (C.1<O.1) THEN (O>C.1) AND (O<O.1)

How would i be able to combine the two?

Try this: (O < C1 and O > O1) OR (O > C1 and O < O1)

This formula will return True when today's Open falls between the previous day's Open and Close.  It checks for both "up" and "down" days.

Hi Bruce, 

thanks so much. i just ended up using

ABS(C.1-O.1) >= ABS(C.1-O) AND
ABS(C.1-O.1) >= ABS (O.1-O)

I was wondering how one would code in consistently lower swing point highs and conversely consistently higher swing point lows?

You might find some of this material useful Plotting Swing Highs and Lows with Dots.

There are a few more links within that topic as well.
