Many investors believe that when a financial instrument makes a new high, it will continue to make more new highs. Investigator lets you test this theory.

First, select the time period.

If you select the all bars option, Investigator will search for a new high within the past Within: value over all of the data in the file; otherwise, Investigator will search for the new high over the Over Past: value. For example, if you entered 5 in the Within: edit box and 200 in the Over Past: box, you’re telling Investigator check when the highest high occurred over the past 200 bars. If it occurred during the past five bars, then this condition would be true.
