I am trying to write this filter and it does not work as expected. I would be glad if one of the experts in this forum can help me out. I am trying to find Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K drops from above 75 to below 25. I tried various filters

Show stocks where Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K dropped 50 points over last 2 days

This kind of works, but if I use this in backtest for exit criteria, it always triggers one day after this event happens.

Also if I try to add additional criteria for the same %K the query does not return anything

example
Show stocks where Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K dropped 50 points over last 2 days
and Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K is greater than 75 within last 2 days

Another issue with dropped over last 2 days query is, it literally compares 2 days start & end, if the drop happens within one day it does not trigger. I want to get triggered if the drop happens from start day to any one of days until nth day, not just nth day. How do we do that?

Something like this might work:

Fetcher[
Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K 2 days ago above 75
Fast Stochastic(5,3) Fast %K below 25
]
