Hey h-
I conceed... :smt112 Of course, to conceed might imply that we were on different sides. I hope you don't really think that was ever the case. The fact is that I have the highest regard for P. I just like yanking his chain. In retrospect, this could be like yanking the chain of a sleeping pit bull! Oops! oz_pdt_03p
patrick already has our credit card numbers in some database somewhere anyway... I'm not scared! :D

Alright I uploaded a new version of the dll with the fixed ( hopefully ) RSI function. I'm not completely satisfy with the code as it is but hopefully it will do for now.
As always the new files are uploaded here :

Try this!
{(DMZ)Dynamic Momentum Index}
{similar to the Jurik DMX- a lowlag DMI}
{written by Preston Umrysh}
{This indicator uses Dll software developed by MetaStock Forum Crew}
{http://forum.equis.com)}
Vt:=(Stdev(C,5)/Mov(Stdev(C,5),10,E))*10;
Vt:=Max(vt,.0000001);
Period:= Input("ZeroLag Period",1,250,10);
EMA1:= Mov(C,Period,E);
EMA2:= Mov(EMA1,Period,E);
Difference:= EMA1 - EMA2;
ZeroLagEMA:= EMA1 + Difference;
x:=ZeroLagEMA;
ExtFml( "ForumDLL.VarRSI",x ,vt)

How do you use this ... with 20/80 ... What periods is usually used? Do you have an example of an expert or system :D
Thanks for the indicator ;)
There is a chart on the yahoo group for the dmx that looks pretty good, any chance we will get the expert :D

Dorusone you need to download the dll and copy it to your equis folder ...
Download the manual as well as the dll and read the instructions.

Patrick,
The indicator uses the volatility index to set the RSI periods. The periods input is for the zerolag ema that is used in the calculation. I have tried several different settings and like the default of 10 but it really is an individual choice.
How to trade? There are several options that will work. At the Jurik website they have listed several. Peak to peak is one, 20 to 80 is another and above/below a trigger would be a third. There are dozens of variations to these ideas. For instance, using the ob/os or the 20 to 80 you could go long with a rise above 20 and sell with a decline below 80. Then there is always the midpoint buy/sell where you would buy when above the midpoint of 50 on the 0/100 scale and sell when below.
Certainly, I would not hang my hat on just this one indicator alone so introducing another indicator should be considered. Here again the options become endless. Someone at the Yahoo Equismetastock site mentioned using the TSI (Trend Strength Indicator) along with the DMX. This would be a very good idea but there are others that offer just as much versatility and usefulness.
A system would and should be dependant on trading style. As of yet I haven't had any time to delve into sytem construction or an expert for that matter. This is certainly one indicator which I would STRONGLY consider though as the central feature of a strong system.
Bottomline for me is trying to work my way through using all these new DLL's that you have so graciously coded. My hat is off to you for this accomplishment! =D>
Many thanks,
Preston

Patrick,
I saw that...FANTASTIC!!!!
This is going to make life so much nicer.
Only downside is that we'll never keep up with the updates to it at the rate we've all been going.
I've decided to install a "Texas condom" in order to eliminate the trips to the john. :lol:

Restart computer...registers new DLL
Open Metastock
Select Indicator Builder
Select New
Point cursor into opened area in Formula screen...left click
Select Function
Function Category should open
Scroll down to bottom

Thanks Preston I tried It but no solution.
Maybe the forumdll.dll should be "linked in the register" ?
Good weekend,
Theo

Did you change the name from forumdll.[censored] to forumdll.dll ?
Have you gotten the newest version? The old version did not contain the RSI variable.
Sure you put the dll in the Metastock external dll folder? Checked?
Do you see any dll's?

Obvioulsy the problem is this :
Quote:
in 7.03 there is no external dll file folder
Where did you copy the dll to then?
Option 1: You are not looking in the right place. It should be in C:\\Program Files\\Equis\\metastock\\External Function DLLs
Option 2: The folder really does not exist. Create the folder and call it : External Function DLLs
then copy the dll in this folder.

TL : to the wrong directory.
Option 1: You are not looking in the right place. It should be in C:\\Program Files\\Equis\\metastock\\External Function DLLs
TL : There WAS NO External Functions DLLs folder.
Option 2: The folder really does not exist. Create the folder and call it : External Function DLLs
then copy the dll in this folder.
TL : I did and it worked !
So for possible other 7.03 users of your DLL :
1) make an External Functions DLL folder.
2) Copy the forumdll.dll to this newly created folder.
Thanks a lot Patrick problem solved !
Theo
