Thanks Marshall - We could try something this,
based on info I found at this site:
This would be for a bullish kicker - the definition
of a downtrend could be open to interpretation I guess.
DownTrend = ref( close, -1 ) < ref( close, -2 )
and ref( close, -2 ) < ref( close, -3 );
YestDown = ref( open, -1 ) > ref( close, -1
);
TodayUP = open >= ref( open, -1 ) and open <
close;
Buy = DownTrend and YestDown and TodayUp; //
kicker

Steve, "Kicker" is a candlestick formation, which suggests a
long trend is coming. It is a series of white candles, with the
second candle open at about the halfway point of the previous
white candle. The close is well above the close of the previous
candle. That is my definition of the kicker candle. It
may not be text book, but I have used it for many years.

Hi,
I don't know what a "kicker" is,
but your Buy statement references
tomorrow's data - that can't
be right, can it? Maybe if you posted in
English what the
formula should do...
