Al,
I haven't seen a response to your question and I'm far from an expert in the
coding area but I'm willing to have a crack at it.
How about:
Close Long:
C> Ref(H,-1) OR
BarsSince(C<Ref(L,-1)AND Ref(H,-1)>=(HHV(H,20)))=3
I looked at a couple of charts and it seems to do what you are after.
Have attached one of the charts. Let me know if it works for you or not.
Cheers,
Ian Burgoyne
