for i = 1:length(startIdx)
for j = 1:length(date(startIdx(i):cutoffIdx(i)))
k = date(startIdx(i):cutoffIdx(i));
try
shortIdx(j)=find(and(and(and(and(and(jam>=1.2,jam<=2.3),expiration==xDates(i)),option_type=='c'),jamSym==1),quote_date==k(j)),1);

Let's say i = 1:4. On the first pass through i, everything is fine. But when i = 2, I am overwriting the stored shortIdx data I created when i was 1. j is the length of each i, and k is the dates for each i. Where I get tripped up is the last part of the try statement
because when i turns to 2, j is reset to 1. So even though k is the correct set of dates for i, I am simply overwriting the shortIdx variable, instead of appending to it. Is there a way for me to solve this efficiently? Or do I need to create an independent for loop for each i? Thank you.
