Consecutive Candles on Specific date

  Hi, I am using a 3 consecutive candle screener searching for short term uptrends but I would like the screener to show me when the conditions were met on a previous date (so that I can see how stock behaved after meeting these conditions)

  It’s only working for the last trading day, I get 0 results when I change the date to anything other than last trading day. How do I get there screener to show the conditions met for previous days?

  a = close b = close [1] c = close [2] d = close [3] if a>b and b>c and c>d then i =1 else i = 0 endif minVolume = 100000 minClose = 20 idate = 20190524 SCREENER [i and Volume>minVolume and Close>minClose and date=idate]

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

  a = close b = close [1] c = close [2] d = close [3]   if a>b and b>c and c>d then i =1 else i = 0 endif   minVolume = 100000 minClose = 20 idate = 20190524     SCREENER [i and Volume>minVolume and Close>minClose and date=idate]

  I’m not big on the workings of screeners but I’m guessing that you could just change:

  a = close b = close [1] c = close [2] d = close [3]

  1 2 3 4

  a = close b = close [1] c = close [2] d = close [3]

  to something like this to test for the same thing 10 candles ago:

  a = close[9] b = close [10] c = close [11] d = close [12]

  1 2 3 4

  a = close[9] b = close [10] c = close [11] d = close [12]
