Initial tests look REALLY GOOD.... I will delve into that a little more deeply before any further comment.... except to say A message to Patrick's boss(es): Give the man a raise! Reward him well for his excellent effort. wabbit :D [Edited By Patrick]: Here is Wabbit's perfect user guide. http://forum.equis.com/viewtopic.php?t=1312

do you need to change .[censored] to .dll?

Did you use this code? B:=If(Cum(1)=1,0,If(buy,1,If(sellshort,-1,If((exitbuy AND PREV=1) OR (exitshort AND PREV=-1),0,PREV))));

You programmed the .dll right? I meant that the dll used this code..Or doesn't it work like that?

I try the dll monday if it works..tnx for all the work you do for every metastock user. very appreciated here :!:

Good stuff, Patrick. 8:-) If I was given the opportunity of choosing only one MetaStock dll, it would be something really versatile. My idea of a versatile MetaStock dll would be one which could transform any variable into a constant value, such as: constant:= LastValue(variable+PREV-PREV); Using this constant.dll would mean that ALL MetaStock functions could now accept variables. This would make life immensibly easier for all of us. How about it, Patrick, is this possible? :) jose '-) http://metastocktools.com/#metastock

Patrick Great Job!!! Very very handy Cheers Norman
