Find and Count Overview

Top  Previous  Next

The Find and Count indicators are designed to answer the questions traders ask about data such as what is the max value of the close in the time between a Bollinger Band High Breakout and a Bollinger Band Low Breakout or count the number of times the percent change in close was greater than x percent from February 1 to May 31.

The Find indicators can calculate values such as a min, max or point change, based on two conditions occurring in a data stream. (Both conditions must be true in order for a value to be calculated.)   The Count indicators calculate a running total of the number of times a specified condition occurs in between a start condition and an end condition.

The FindSince and FindSinceInclusive indicators find similar values from the time Condition1 occurs until the end of the chart.  The CountSince and CountSinceInclusive indicators begin their running total with the occurrence of Condition1,  but Condition2 is replaced by the current bar.
