This gives my a price series higher for five days in a row starting yesterday... Code bool risingFiveDays = (Prices[1] > Prices[2]) && (Prices[2] > Prices[3]) && (Prices[3] > Prices[4]) && (Prices[4] > Prices[5]) && (Prices[5] > Prices[6]); How to generalize this to _at least_ five days starting yesterday?

Something like that: Code int dayLookBackStart = 1; int lookBackPeriod = 5; int i; bool risingXDays = true; for(i=dayLookBackStart ; i<lookBackPeriod-1; i++){ if(Prices[i]<Prices[i+1]){ risingXDays = false; break; } } risingXDays is true if during the lookBackPeriod you have continues higher Prices or false if the series is broken in one of the days. Try it out it should work. Cheers
