Hello, I'm trying to code: Close more than moving average 200 and close less than moving average 10 and price above 5 and average volume for 30 days above 500000 and rsi(2) is less than 1 and rsi(2) one day ago is less than 2 C > Mov(C,200,S) AND C < Mov(C,10,S) AND C > 5 AND Mov(V,30,S) > 500000 AND RSI(2)<1 AND RSI(2,-1)<2 Ive tried putting paranthesis around each one of them. But it's not working. Any help please??

Well, I think it would look like this:

C>Mov(C,200,S)
AND C<Mov(C,10,S)
AND C>5
AND Mov(V,30,S)>500000
AND RSI(2)<1
AND Ref(RSI(2),-1)<1

Thanks for your input john. But that does not work either. I'm a new metastock user. I entered that formula as a buy singnal for a simulation in enhanced system test. It should work, because i have used this on other platforms. I doubled checked the dates as well. This formula gets ZERO hits.

Something is probably off on your parameters -- the code matches your posted description; it's straightforward and easy to check/modify.

A quick Exploration on the S&P 500 got no hits.

You might try commentting out individual lines with braces "{" and "}" and re-run an Exploration, to see where the glitch is. Also, try a plot of the component indicators on a chart, hit "Zoom Reset" and page-through a few stocks to see if anything shows up.

FWIW, I removed a zero from the Volume parameter, and ran the following Exploration, which returned a few hits -- note that you can sort the Results table by clicking on the table header:

Column A: Signal
------------------
C>Mov(C,200,S)
AND C<Mov(C,10,S)
AND C>5
AND Mov(V,30,S)>50000
AND RSI(2)<1
AND Ref(RSI(2),-1)<2

Column B: Cum
------------------
Result:=
C>Mov(C,200,S)
AND C<Mov(C,10,S)
AND C>5
AND Mov(V,30,S)>50000
AND RSI(2)<1
AND Ref(RSI(2),-1)<2;

Cum(Result)
