So may be we have to agree on what is a wiggle first..The wiggle date in the test is the day 3 of the wiggle so for IBM on day 2 the high (119.75) is higher than the high on day 1 (118.81). Same with JPM. Did I miss something?

As for the sell wiggle I guess you have to reverse low and high and switch above with below in the definition?

Chip, YxY, anyone

This is a variation on the 3 day buy wiggle....2nd day is not complete...2nd must have a higher high then the first day and close lower.

Close lower than what? I've assumed that it meant close lower than the close of day1. I don't see this being satisfied in the Nasdaq futures mentioned a few days back.

According to my data service, day2 didn't even close lower than it opened, and closed above day1's close. I do see some overlap; day2 low is below day1 high, but I don't think that's the criterion.

What am I missing?
