// Look for additional changes as I tweak the below code.

//Left side of Handle formation can occur anywhere from 2-25days - 
look at the last 25 bars and get the number of bars since condition 
met.

LH=HHV(Close,25); // Highest close past 25 days.
BLH=HHVBars(Close,25); // Tells us # of bars that have past since 
high reached. Used to determine lowest bar.

BH=LLV(Close,BLH); //  Lowest close since the highest value was 
reached/
BBH=LLVBars(Close,BLH); // number of bars that have past since 
lowest value.

NBLH=BLH-BBH; // this is the number of bars in the formation of the 
left side handle. NBLH must be atleast 2 to be a valid handle 
formation.

// Now lets get the cup formation. Cup formation can occur anywhere 
from 23 to 145 days. The left side of the cup can be from 20-120 
days and the right side can be anywhere from 3-25 days.

// get the right side of the cup(low).

handle.

formation.
// 4. Bottom of the cup must be less than the left handle.
// 5. Bottom of the handle must be > 80% of the left handle + 20% of 
the bottom cup.
// 6. Start of cup/handle formation must be greater than precedding 
chart value. LC>LC
// 7. Minimum price and volume you can set any way you like.
