Re: [RT] Intra-day market activity

It is a day that is the narrowest day of range reletive to the previous 4
days. I just realized that it is only
that.   I think I implied that it was not only that but an inside day as
well, so. It could be a tighter query.
so it should be a NR4 for narrowest range relative to the previous 4 days.
