DEar SIr,

I am not bieng able to put the formula in MEtastock Explorer. Maybe i am not
bieng able to explain properly. Let me explain with example:-

Supposing on Monday share x was :- High=100 low= 80
                      Tuesday                     High=102 low=89
                      Wednesday                High=95 Low 75
                      Thursday                    High = 90 low=85

Now if u look carefully thursday has been lowest trading range for the Share
X i.e HIGH MINUS LOW. so I want to explore such shares which on a particular
day has been in lowest zone or lets say in very tight range than the
previous three days.

I hope it is clear now. Thanks for your help.

Sunil
