Hello Pete,

The purpose of this post is to create a scan condition that detects the first red day of a stock that has been running up with 2 or more green days in a row with each green day making higher lows and higher highs than the previous day in the sequence.

The scan should look for a pattern like green green …..(continuous green)……. red.

 

With a minimum of 2 green days

 

Thank you

This should do it.

def upTrend = close > open and close > close[1] and high > high[1] and low > low[1];
def seriesOfTwo = upTrend and upTrend[1];
def firstDownBar = seriesOfTwo[1] and close < close[1];
plot scan = firstDownBar;

Screenshot below shows the signals this will pick up.

The code works perfectly, my last question is how can we modify this code to only return results of the uptrend that rose at least 75%. For example From the low price of the first green candle to the high price of the last green candle in the trend, the percent change is over 75% second, the total volume of the uptrend is greater that 1 million
