Dominic,
Your pat is a condition, its value is either 1 [true] or 0 [false].
Your ref(pat,-1) is the previous value of pat and it will be also 1
or 0.
The condition
C>ref(pat,-1)
is equivalent to
C>1 [respectively C>0]
If, for example, you search MSFT, the condition will be true for
every bar [remember, true means value equal to 1] and, consequently,
cum(C>ref(pat,-1)) will be equal to cum(1)
