Simple scan - where am I m going wrong?

Plot scan = ((close < close [-1]) and (close[-1] < close[-2]) and
(close [-2] < close[-3]) and (close[-3] < close[-4]) and
(close [-4] > close[-5]) and (close[-5] > close[-6]));

I have used various time frames, and yet getting NO matches for numerous scans.

It's probably something simple that I just can't put my finger on.

If someone could kindly point out my mistake I wound appreciate it.

It's driving me batty.

STB thanks for your suggestion. But when I ran the scan with your suggestion, I received the same results, "NO MATCHS FOUND"that I got with my scan. Actually if I convert frommy thinkscript to condition wizard with my results, I get the same thing you gave me. There must be another setting that is preventing me to get the desired results.
