What if your condition is not met? In other words, if the High is not greater than the highest high of the last four days, or the low.
 
To create an indicator, you need to specify the value if your condition if true/not true.
 
Therefore, if both your conditions are met, the value of the indicator will be 1 (true) or Zero (false).
 
So in your example:
a:= if(HIGH > Ref(HHV(HIGH,4),-1) AND VOLUME >500000, 1,0);
b:= if(LOW < Ref(LLV(LOW,4),-1) AND VOLUME >500000, 1,0);
a-b;
 
So a-b will always be 1, 0, or -1. That can be plotted as a histogram.

Hello Dusant,
Thank you for a reply,

Basically in my exploration,
a)HIGH > Ref(HHV(HIGH,4),-1) AND VOLUME   >500000
I'm looking for the high of the 4 days and for the volume to exceed
500000, for my criteria to meet.

Even if I do an exploration simply by HIGH > Ref(HHV(HIGH,4),-1)
and with the reults do another expl0ration for just the volume
AND VOLUME   >500000
The results I get from both the explorations are the same,
regardless whether both the condtions are carried out separately or
combined.

Therefore here i'm looking for both the conditions to be true. With
the results of the true condtion I want to convert it into a
histogram chart.
The histogram value is the results from both of my exploration on
the HIGH - LOW results as indicated by the exploration (a) - (b)

My explorations (recap)

a)HIGH > Ref(HHV(HIGH,4),-1) AND VOLUME   >500000

b)LOW < Ref(LLV(LOW,4),-1) AND VOLUME   >500000

Thus ultimate value for new indicator is (a) - (b)


Actually I was reading this book Trading for a living and found this
indicator as mentioned by the author. Hoefully you have read it too.
If yes, then it's mentioned in page 194 of the book.

I hope my explanation here is clearer and sorry if my earlier post
is not clear, my apologies.

Thank you

Sachin
