I'm trying to create a simple exploration that looks for situations where +DI crosses above -DI; I have tried different versions of the formula, however when I run the exploration on my database of over 600 stocks, I usually get a report of about 20 stocks out of which no more than 7 results are correct (i.e. +DI crosses above –DI); the rest of the report consists of stocks with no crossover whatsoever, or with crossovers that happened a few periods back. I’m currently using MS version 8.01. I'm not sure if the problem is with the software or with the formulas. I have tried the following formulas and I get similar results: 1 – Ref(PDI(14)<MDI(14),-1) AND PDI(14)>=MDI(14) 2 – Cross(PDI(14), MDI(14)) 3 – DIRECT:=PDI(14)>MDI(14); DIRECT AND Ref(DIRECT,-1)=0 Any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi Patrick, Thank you so much for your help. You were right; the Data Loading in Explorer Options was set to "Load Minimum Records". I changed that to "Load 1300 Records" and that solved the problem. You've been very kind. Thanks again.
