This won't be accurate during the first month on the chart, but after 
that it will be fine.

vars:  TradeDay(0);

{ This Date test isn't necessary for EOD data, but it doesn't hurt }

if Date <> Date[1] then
  if Month(Date) <> Month(Date[1]) 
    then TradeDay = 1
    else TradeDay = TradeDay + 1;

if (whatever) and TradeDay = 20 then ...
