Actually the day BEFORE yesterday (R[1]) is the
"narrowest range of last 4 days" before it...
maybe you mean R < R[1], and so on.


>>         and ( H[1] < H[2] and L[1] > L[2] ) then {inside day}

Likewise H[1] is the bar before last and in this case you
are comparing the intraday bars of the 5 minute data you're using,
not daily bars as you intended.
