Rules= Always in the market. 3 min data bars,9 period weighted mov avg and a 11 period weighted mov avg shifted to the right +3 bars. When they cross over to the up side your long.and a crossover to the down side the position is short. No stops, YOU are either long or short on a crossover. hOW DO I WRITE THIS IN xml code or any code? Can't find anything on horizonal shift.

For an horizontal shift use the Reference function ... Try: Ref(Mov(c,11,W),3) or Ref(Mov(c,11,W),-3) Patrick :mrgreen:

Any shift of the MA to the left, requires a forward ref function. It will then become 3 bars late, due to Metastock's need for those 3 bars of data. IE: today's data is Thursday , the ma needs data for Friday, Monday and Tuesday before it can show you signal. Since the 3 days have not traded, this system is moot you will need the Ref(Mov(C,5,S),-3); to shift the MA 3 bars to the Right

Hbjerry, it's obvious what you're up to, and you are wasting your time here. This is a MetaStock community, and not a black box developers forum. jose '-)

Hey hbjerry- You've gotten some great help here already. What have you done to help yourself? If you're stuck writing your code, then post what you have and explain what's not working.

I watched all the videos,looked at all the sample code and came up with. bullish Cross(Mov(C,9,W),Ref( (Mov(C,13,W)),3)) bearish Cross(C,Ref( (Mov(C,13,W)),3))AND (Mov(C,9,W)) added the ribbon too.But I get so many false signals as price stays above average, ribbon should stay green but turns red when there has been no cross in price. Where did I go wrong?

Hi HbJerry, Thanks for doing your homework ;) By looking at your formula I can point that the problem is with the ref function ... It is looking forward ... [code:1:a19911fd6c]Ref( (Mov(C,13,W)),3)) [/code:1:a19911fd6c] Try replacing the code above by Ref( (Mov(C,13,W)),-3)) Patrick :mrgreen:

That cut down the signals but still missing to many cross overs and the ribbon should have no black,should only be green or red.It's mostley black now.

Replace your cross functions by > and < and then use the Latch function from the forum dll to only get one buy and one sell etc ... Read the ForumDll manual about the latch function. Patrick :mrgreen:

this seems to work [code:1:10bb150637]bull mov( CLOSE, 9, E ) > ((ref(Close,-3)+ref(Close,-4)+ref(Close,-5)+ref(Close,-6)+ref(Close,-7)+ref(Close,-8)+ref(Close,-9)+ref(Close,-10)+ref(Close,-11)+ref(Close,-12)+ref(Close,-13)) / 11 ) bear mov( CLOSE, 9, E ) < ((ref(Close,-3)+ref(Close,-4)+ref(Close,-5)+ref(Close,-6)+ref(Close,-7)+ref(Close,-8)+ref(Close,-9)+ref(Close,-10)+ref(Close,-11)+ref(Close,-12)+ref(Close,-13)) / 11 ) buy cross(Mov( CLOSE, 9, E ), ((ref(Close,-3)+ref(Close,-4)+ref(Close,-5)+ref(Close,-6)+ref(Close,-7)+ref(Close,-8)+ref(Close,-9)+ref(Close,-10)+ref(Close,-11)+ref(Close,-12)+ref(Close,-13)) / 11 )) sell cross(((ref(Close,-3)+ref(Close,-4)+ref(Close,-5)+ref(Close,-6)+ref(Close,-7)+ref(Close,-8)+ref(Close,-9)+ref(Close,-10)+ref(Close,-11)+ref(Close,-12)+ref(Close,-13)) / 11 ), Mov( CLOSE, 9, E )) [/code:1:10bb150637]Any way to do this without all the ref's?

The MS code below will plot exactly the same signals as the longer code above. [code:1:9676ba8c38] Bull ---8<-------------------------- Mov(C,9,E)>Ref(Sum(C,11),-3)/11 ---8<-------------------------- Bear ---8<-------------------------- Mov(C,9,E)<Ref(Sum(C,11),-3)/11 ---8<-------------------------- Buy ---8<--------------------------------- Cross(Mov(C,9,E),Ref(Sum(C,11),-3)/11) ---8<--------------------------------- Sell ---8<--------------------------------- Cross(Ref(Sum(C,11),-3)/11,Mov(C,9,E)) ---8<--------------------------------- [/code:1:9676ba8c38] jose '-)

Using the Bull example: [code:1:dd2a8145df]Mov(C,9,E)>Ref(Sum(C,11),-3)/11[/code:1:dd2a8145df] ...is the same as: [code:1:dd2a8145df]Mov(C,9,E)>Ref(Mov(C,11,S),-3)[/code:1:dd2a8145df] So, a weighted version of the SMA portion above would be: [code:1:dd2a8145df]Mov(C,9,E)>Ref(Mov(C,11,W),-3)[/code:1:dd2a8145df] jose '-)
