Are there Metastock plug-ins or add-ons for Tom Demark's trading systems and indicators (eg TD Sequential,TD Combo etc) ? Failing that, are there any charting packages other than the "professional" ones like Bloomberg and Reuters that have these? Thanks for any help Mike

Hi Mike, There are no Demark Plug Ins for Metastock ... I did Write the TD Combo in a Dll Function if you are interrested. Look in the download section and in the Beta files download the Dll, also in the Stable Release download the manual. Hope this helps Patrick :mrgreen:

Patrick, Thanks for that. I'll be checking out TD Combo. The functions in the Forum DLL that allow the use of variables instead of constants are going to be really useful. =D> regards Mike. [Unfortunately I couldn't get my Metastock 9.0 to recognize Forum90.Dll - I see others have had difficulties with this - but Forum80.Dll was installed with no problem. (my OS is Win XP with SP2 installed) ]

Patrick, whilst we are on the subject, the Forum.dll's (for MS v8.0) SAR function is not accepting variable inputs (i.e. changing var inputs makes no difference to the plot): [code:1:123d01147a]{ExtFml("Forum.CSAR",Data Array,Step,Maximum)} step:=Input("Step",.001,100,.02); mx:=Input("Maximum",.001,100,.2); ExtFml("Forum.CSAR",C,step,mx) [/code:1:123d01147a] jose '-)

Patrick, I set up 2 indicators using Custom Index (see below). They both display. Perhaps this in itself answers your question? I've asked a couple of questions about the function as I'm not sure I understand it properly. 1. ExtFml( "Forum80.CustomIndex","c:/Shares/LSE_INDEXES", c, sum); Does this give the sum of the closes of each security in the folder (i.e. date by date)? 2. ExtFml( "Forum80.CustomIndex", "c:/Shares/LSE_DOM/D", c, index); Does this show number of securities in folder that have data (the close) for each date? Hope this helps Mike

The answer to question 1 is yes the answer to question 2 is no :D

Not it sums the data and then divides it by the number of securities in the folder. Patrick :mrgreen:

Thanks Patrick. I thought my answer to no 2 was a bit weird! #-o
