Hi all,

I'm new to the forum but have just subscribed to SF after trialling for a few weeks. It's very useful. However one thing I have a problem with is the "within" phrase and I'd really appreciate feedback or help with this. I could well be approaching things wrongly but when I type "CCI(20) was below -200 within the last 6 days" on todays date it returns 3 matches (from memory) but when you replace the 6 days with 3 days as a test it returns a lot more entries. This is obviously not acting as I want it to, as with lesser number of days the results should be the same as or lower than 6 days not more!

Obviously this is not the full extent of my search query as I look for more than just the CCI but when this one line shows incorrect results, I can't trust using the within phrase at all. I have tried getting around this by saying for example "CCI(20) was below -200 6 days ago" which appears fine but what if there was one 5 days ago, or 4 etc etc, and I really want to be able to use the "within" phrase.

Any ideas on a workaround or is it just that I am inputting things the wrong way round etc?

Many thanks for taking the time to read/reply to this in advance.

Cheers!

Scott

When I use this below filter, I get 11 results many with nan in some of the columns:
Fetcher[
CCI(20) is below -200 within the last 6 days

add column CCI(20) add column CCI(20) 1 day ago
add column CCI(20) 2 day ago add column CCI(20) 3 day ago add column CCI(20) 4 day ago
add column CCI(20) 5 day ago add column CCI(20) 6 day ago
]


When I use this below filter, I get 58 results
Fetcher[
CCI(20) is below -200 within the last 3 days

add column CCI(20) add column CCI(20) 1 day ago
add column CCI(20) 2 day ago add column CCI(20) 3 day ago add column CCI(20) 4 day ago
add column CCI(20) 5 day ago add column CCI(20) 6 day ago
]


When I use the below filter, I get 814 results this one is definitely more accurate than the other 2, why I don't know.....
Fetcher[
add column count(CCI(20) is below -200,6) is above 0

add column CCI(20) add column CCI(20) 1 day ago
add column CCI(20) 2 day ago add column CCI(20) 3 day ago add column CCI(20) 4 day ago
add column CCI(20) 5 day ago add column CCI(20) 6 day ago
]


Hope this helps,
Ed S.
