TrendyBeth, The exploration is almost as straightforward as you have described it here. Set up a filter something like - C < Ref(C,-1) AND Ref(C,-1)< Ref(C,-2) AND Ref(C,-2)< Ref(C,-3) AND PDI(14)>MDI(14) AND ADXR(14)>30 The last two conditions only consider the most recent day, but you could add a Ref() function sequence to them in the same way as used on closing price to also qualify each of those days as well. If todays ADXR is above 30 and +DI > -DI after price falling this way you can be fairly certain those conditions were true three days ago. Good luck with the new program. You'll immediately find it to be extremely versatile and after a brief learning period, very useful. After more experimenting, powerful begins to describe it best.
