I need help in finding how to code the lowest volume in last 30 days(or whatever length). I have looked at PVO, PVI and the VMA, but have not found exactly what I want. Mark Minervini uses extreme low volume as part of his stock screens. Volume contraction in a basing stock sometimes signals near breakouts.

Is there a way to apply this to a variable that is defined on data that spans more than one day ?
In particular, to find if today's close to close range is the smallest in the past 20 days.
Fails:
set { cc, close 0 days ago - close 1 days ago }
count(cc reached a new 20 day low,1) equals 1
Fails:
close 0 days ago - close 1 days ago reached a new 20 day low

This seems to work, but as written it gives you the LARGEST drop in absolute $ over the last twenty days. Is that what you are looking for?
I think what you are looking for is that the ABSOLUTE value of the daily difference is the smallest it has been in 20 days.

Yes, the absolute value !
Kevin, thanks so much for spotting my confounding of a 'low' difference w/ smallest absolute value.
Regards, ChasS
