Scans with Bollinger bands

Your scan has to account for all five bars for each possible situations - above upper, below upper, above lower, below lower, and those situations have to be connected by an "or" statement.

I'll give you the framework - you have to get the syntax right (using the advanced editor suggestions).

Copy this into the editor ONE LINE AT A TIME so you get the brackets right, then correct each line for syntax.

and

[
[ close > upper band]
and [ 1 day ago close > 1 day ago upper band ]
and [ 2 days ago close > 2 days ago upper band ]

etc.
