1) Is there a way to increse the size of the 'Limit or Stop Price' Box of the System Editor? It also appears that variables that I define in the formula box are not recognized in the 'Limit or Stop Price Box. Any way around this? 2) I am having a problem with 'divide by zero' errors that persist through an system test. When a contract is very young, there may be a single price for that entiore day, which means that the daily range equals zero, so when I divide anything by the daily range, there error comes up. Any advice? 3) How can I display more characters of the individual System names in the System list box of the Enhanced Sytem Tester? 4) Are there any good resources on the Enhanced System Tester? The manual seems to be very light on content for the more advanced capacbilities of the tester. Thanks, Scott

Scott 1) Click on the function button for limit price entry formulas. This opens up a box so that you don't have the appearance of only being able to enter 1 line. You can prepare a formula in advance (say as an indicator or in the Buy Order window) and copy that into the single line, but editing is easier when opening the box with the function button. You are limited to 1048 caharater (I think) per Enhanced System Tester window, and if you can't get your formula down to size then you must offload what you can to the indicator builder. It may even be necessary for you to investigate "optimisation outside the ST", something covered in one of my newsletters. 2) You must modify your code by substituting an alternative value whenever the denominator is zero. The substitution needs to be made before the division attempts to execute. This can usually be done within the same variable but it's ofter better to perform the substitution ahead of the division variable. While many people substitute a timy value such as 0.00001 for zero, I have found that 1 is usually all that's needed to do the job. Check before and after results as indicators to see if you substitute value is acceptable. I seem to recall that the EST does not like divide-by-zero errors so substitution is the only way to go. 3) I don't think you can widen the window. The window size is non-adjustable 4) There's a good article in the EquisMetastock Yahoo group files section written by Tom Sprunger. That's a good place to start. I covered several points in a series of MSTT articles some time back. These were not aimed at the advance user as much as the average user who struggled to get the System Tester to do what was required. Most "problems" can be worked around once you understand the System Tester a little better and get a handle on what's possible and what's not. There are a number of issues that trip up the unwary.

Sportrider Click on the approprate "Function" botton and a window of 8-10 lines opens - much easier than trying to manage through the single-line window. You can paste multiple lines up to the maximum character space (1048 I think) into the single-line window, but that's about all it's good for. Check it out and make life easier for yourself. Roy

Roy, Your right,for some reason this was sitting in front of my face and never dawn on me to click it.Many thanks,I thought I was doomed to the one line cut and paste.Thanks again
