Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] finding charts with two inside days

... or another way is to count the number of inside days:

{count the number of inside days in the last (lookback) periods}
lookback:=Input("Lookback periods",1,100,3);
insideDay:=LOW>Ref(LOW,-1) AND HIGH < Ref(HIGH,-1);
sum(insideDay,lookback);

If the result is three, then there was three inside days in the last 
(lookback) periods. If lookback is three, then all these days must 
have been consecutive!


Hope this helps.
