Hi,
How would I go about coding a "counter" which sums up the number of occurences over X days?

Would it be a combination of the IFFstring and Sum function? Would it be SumIf??

i am trying to set up a signal if there are 4 or more distribution days for the last 20 days with increasing volume.Its a short sell signal.

distribution day is a day where the close is down .2% or more from previuos close on increasing volume

dist=volume>ref(volume,1)and perf(close,1) <-0.20;

baddist=Sumif(dist>4,20);

thanks,

Allan

baddist = sum(dist, 20) >= 4;
