[amibroker] lower highs, lower lows

A lot of traders are expecting the markets to 
turn down any day now, so I made an CRUDE AA scan that 
is designed to find stocks that have been trending up 
for awhile,  but which have recently started trending 
 down.   Although I have posted the code  below, I am 
not looking  for suggestions for improving this CRUDE 
scan.   I am still struggling with AFL, so I am not yet able to create 
the AA scan that will look for exactly the conditions that I want to scan 
for.    I really want  a  scan that will find 
 those symbols that meet the Weinstein  definition of the ending of an 
uptrend and the entering of a downtrend.   I am aware that DT is a 
little suspicious of Weinstein because he wears a ring on his 
pinkie.  It bothers me a little also, but at least he doesn't 
wear a ring in his nose, at least not yet, as far as I know .   I 
am thinking that a lot of Amibroker users would like to have a scan which will 
find the conditions which are  necessary for finding a Weinstein change 
from uptrend to downtrend.   My understanding of Weinstein trends is 
that after a series of higher highs and higher lows, we suddenly see a lower 
low, then we need to be worried.  After the appearance of this first lower 
low, we need to keep watching till the next high occurs.  If this next high 
is lower than the previous high, then we are officially in a Weinstein 
downtrend.   The attached chart that resulted from my CRUDE coding is 
approximately the kind of results that will result from a precise coding of the 
Weinstein change of trend definition.  Since an AA scan for these Weinstein 
change of trend conditions will  be useful to a lot of Amibroker users, I 
would greatly appreciate it if some experienced Amibroker coders would post the 
code for that looks for these precise condtions.  Ron D
