Keeping track of Zig() - How to store its movements?

Hi All,
I wonder if any of you have already done any programming on keeping track of the zig movements. We all know about the dynamic last leg, therefore, would it be possible to record every movement of zig, and consequently, avoid signs generated in real-time that are lost when the leg is updated?
I appreciate any light on this subject.
Best regards,
Marcus

Unless you trade off of the zigs a few zags back that are stable you might have a chance. Otherwise the trade signal appears and disappears. At least they do for me.

Marcus,
Are you looking to track the Zig() for just one or two stocks or an entire market? There is a way, but it involves some manual labour, so is only really useful for small numbers of stocks that require watching.

Wabbit.
Exactly as you said, I just want to monitor a couple of stocks, not the entire market.
The main idea is to record the first move zig. It does not matter if the signal is weak and will be revised shortly, it is just important to save it and avoid it to be erased if zig decides to reevaluate past data.
I believe it could be done by using loops and global variables. But I reckon this is not available in Metastock language (well, if it is, I am not familiar with that).
Do you have any ideias on how to implement a code without requiring a dll? If a dll is required, could you advise which one to go for?
Thanks.
Marcus
