checking if recent low was lowest - help?

[theoj]

Hi

Can somebody please help. I am trying to get a true value if the lowest low of the last 2 candles was the lowest low of the last 4 candles. But using this code does not seem to give the desired results: low(-1, -2) == low(-1, -4) What am I doing wrong?

TIA

An easy way of doing it is to use a 4 period Donchian channel and check if low(-1) or low(-2) are lower than the Donchian lower channel
Just an idea
