find_the_day sDay 0 = sDay find_the_day sDay nDay = let nextDay = addDays 1 sDay if (is_trade_day $ nextDay) then find_the_day nextDay (nDay - 1) else find_the_day nextDay nDay

The correct syntax is let ... in ...; you've forgotten the "in", so something like this:

,---- | find_the_day sDay 0 = sDay | find_the_day sDay nDay = | let nextDay = addDays 1 sDay | in if (is_trade_day $ nextDay) | then find_the_day nextDay (nDay - 1) | else find_the_day nextDay nDay `----

Note that in do-blocks you don't need the `in'; in "normal" code you do.
