Vin,
Y is an array.
Y has a value everyday, it is a time function.
Y<=2 means for the certain day that less than 3 stocks of N100 closed
out of Keltner Channel [below the support Keltner line, to be more
specific] for a 3rd consecutive day.
The condition is for the whole N100 market, not for the traded stock.
You will see better the properties of Y if you plot in ind. builder
the
Y=Foreign(("~OUT3","V")
plot(Y,"",1,2);
Y has positive integer values, 0, 1, 2 etc.
When we ask Y<=5, we need 5 stocks among the 100, no matter which
stocks.
