I want to find an occurrence of the positive directional movement(PDM) crossing from below the MDM to above on any day within the last five days. There are probably many ways (and I'm sure you'll get many responses) but here's one possible way. // I haven't checked this for syntactic correctness, // but you should get the idea. integer crossed; crossed := 0; integer day; for day = -4 to 0 step 1 do if (pdm(day - 1) < mdm(day - 1) and pdm(day) > mdm(day)) then crossed := 1; endif; next day; if (crossed = 1 and <any other conditions>) then println symbol; endif;
