Post From: Request for simple alert / bar coloring

Try this:
=AND(H[0]<MAX(H[-1],H[-2]),L[0]>MIN(L[-1],L[-2]),H[0]<H[-2],L[0]>L[-2])

Note that Simple Alert formulas identify the current day as [0], yesterday as [-1], and the day before yesterday as [-2].
The [0] can be omitted but I included it for clarification and example.

MAX, MIN, and AND are spreadsheet functions that also work in Simple Alerts. Their inputs/conditions are between open and close parenthesis, and separated by commas.
So if you examine the formula:

The MAX function has 2 inputs, each separated by a comma:
H[-1],H[-2]
The MIN function has 2 inputs, each separated by a comma:
L[-1],L[-2]

The AND function has 4 conditions using the comparison operators > < with each condition separated by commas:
H[0]<MAX(H[-1],H[-2])
L[0]>MIN(L[-1],L[-2])
H[0]<H[-2]
L[0]>L[-2]
