Howard:

However, the Date function works just fine in this context.
Loop( -18, -18 )
Println Symbol, Date( 0 ), Close( 0 )

This will print the date and close 18 trading back.

Thanks, Howard; I'll give it a shot.

Something else I'd like to see is a "count" function. Loop the scan back 200 days, count the number of condition occurrences, and output the results. For instance:

1. Set count = 0
2. Loop back for 200 days
3. For [conditions=blah, blah, blah] count = count+1
4. Println count

Those of us with a penchant for statistical analysis could then take some comfort that the odds of certain occurrences were on our side.
