Silly me - there it is: DayStoExpiration. (thanks to Gary Fritz)
Also implemented as Next3rdFriday. (thanks to OM)
However, this produces a sawtooth wave, not what the customer
wanted. I have arranged it for a Showme:
{ *******************************************************************
Study : Next3rdFriday
Last Edit : (Modified for ShowMe by DonC 991128)

********************************************************************}
inputs: Series(1);
IF Next3rdFriday(Series)[1] = 1 Then
Plot1 (c +2 , "Fri3" );
{ Could use
IF DaystoExpiration(month(date),year(date))[1] = 1
Then Plot1 (c +2 , "Fri3" );
However, this does not work as an indicator. DaysTo... goes negative
after the 3rd Friday til the start of the next month.
But it works as a ShowMe.
}
