Nico*,

Here's something Stefan posted about a year ago that you can probably modify to fit your pattern as a starting point. You'll need to change the secondary HHV lookback numbers to shorter term to restrict the rebound leg % or eliminate it altogether. As bdog said, the double top and bottom patterns at the Equis custom formula site should be adaptable, but use zig-zag trough/peak calculations instead of HHV, LLV to determine pivot points.

per Stefan
Retest 3-Month HHV w/16% Range-

This scan should look for tops and is therefore looking for shorting candidates. In the last 3 lines i'm looking for a retracement from the top of 16% and then a rerun to the old high which it can exceed slightly. I remember that the second top in a double top can be a little higher and therefore gave it a little more space to the upside.

Filter:
BarsSince(HHV(C,65)=C)<=30 AND
BarsSince(HHV(C,65)=C)>=18 AND
LLV(C,17)<=HHV(C,82)*0.84 AND
C>HHV(C,82)*0.94 AND
C<HHV(C,82)*1.02
