Darsh,
Lets start with the easy part.
{ Cole's Trading Day Status definition }
RY:= H > Ref(H, -1) AND L >= Ref(L, -1);{Rally Day}
RX:= H <= Ref(H, -1) AND L < Ref(L, -1);{Reaction Day}
IN:= H <= Ref(H, -1) AND L >= Ref(L, -1);{Inside Day}
OUT:= H > Ref(H, -1) AND L < Ref(L, -1);{Outside Day}
The next part is going to require a DLL so that you will be able to
use a variable ref arguement.
There are two Forum DLL's in the files section which I believe have a
variable ref, if not we will need to figure out something else.
Get the DLL loaded and let me know when you have it. There are
instructions there on how to load it I believe.

BTW: The original article appeared in TASC in 1990.
