Calculating Narrowest Trading Range

Joe, Try this:

If((H-L) < Ref(LLV((H-L),4),-1),1,0);

Substitute ATR for (H-L) if you want to use Average Trading Range instead.

Subject: Calculating Narrowest Trading Range

Can anyone help me with this formula. I'm trying to do
the following:

Determine that today's trading range is the narrowest
for the last four days.

today's trading range: i.e. If today's high-low <
(high
- -low)yesterday, and (high -low)two days ago, and (high
- -low)three days ago, and (high -low)four days ago then
then plot 1, otherwise 0


I had been playing around with HHV,and LLV functions
but these didn't quite work, because I needed to
determine each of the previous days trading ranges.

Thanks,
Joe
