Below is my code for determining the lowest low between dates and then plotting signals of crossover of Close of the LL line in the post LL periods (right side of the LL only). On some charts the signals are plotting correctly within the date range but in other cases the signals are plotting in as well as outside the date range. Outside the date range is before the LL was made (left side of chart).
sd:= sm:= sy:= ed:= em:= ey:=
start:=Year()>sy OR (Year()=sy AND (Month()>sm OR Month()=sm AND DayOfMonth()>=sd)); end:=Year()<ey OR (Year()=ey AND (Month()<em OR Month()=em AND DayOfMonth()<=ed));
lo:=LastValue(Lowest(ValueWhen(1,start and end,L)));
sd:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,DayOfMonth()); sm:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,Month()); sy:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,Year());
start:=Year()>sy OR (Year()=sy AND (Month()>sm OR Month()=sm AND DayOfMonth()>=sd));
DnSignals:=Cross(lo,C); UpSignals:=Cross(C,lo);
-If(start AND DnSignals,DnSignals,0); If(start AND UpSignals,UpSignals,0);
1) How can I make the signals plot in the date range only? 2) If used in explorer what code should I use to exclude stocks that have started quoting after the first start date.
Thanks in advance.

I've seen Jose's website but the problem is not in finding the lowest low but in plotting crossover of lowest low and close cross(lo,C) signals in the post lowest low period only. With my code the signals are plotting before and after the start i.e. before and after the lowest low. See the bottom part of the code:
lo:=LastValue(Lowest(ValueWhen(1,start and end,L)));
sd:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,DayOfMonth()); sm:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,Month()); sy:=ValueWhen(1,L=lo,Year());
start:=Year()>sy OR (Year()=sy AND (Month()>sm OR Month()=sm AND DayOfMonth()>=sd));
DnSignals:=Cross(lo,C); UpSignals:=Cross(C,lo);
-If(start AND DnSignals,DnSignals,0); If(start AND UpSignals,UpSignals,0);
Also how can I exclude newer stocks that have started quoting after the first start date if the above is used in exploratio?

Nobody has replied to my post.
What am I doing wrong and where? Why are the crossover signals plotting outside the date range? Am I making a silly mistake somewhere?
Please look at the code and answer. It's important for me.

What are you trying to accomplish with trading only between two dates? System testing? What ever plots in an expert, will plot correctly on a chart! The Right Edge of a chart never lies!
The system tester in Metastock can be manipulated. Using Simulations in any formula other than the system is useless. If a formula cannot be used in an expert or exploration or indicator then why use it?

It irritates me that I can't use FIRE with MS v13 as I am not crazy with the Sector Stats in v13. Anything that is dependent on frequently Equis updates isn't a good thing in my point of view. So anytime I am doing stats on sectors I have to run MS v11 and FIRE... I even tried to create an indicator in v13 that called the Breadth indicator but MSX DLL didn't recognized the function.
