Can some one help me write a formulae for the expert advisor?.. I would like an alert to trigger if a price bar makes a new high but closes below the close of the previous 2 price bars closes.... and visa versa if a price bar makes a new low but closes above the 2 previous price bars closes. Thank's anyone.

Would something like this work?
a1:=(H>Ref(H,-1))*(H>Ref(H,-2));
a2:=(C<Ref(C,-1))*(C<Ref(C,-2));
a3:=a1*a2;
a3

Works like a bomb for a new high and close below the two previous bars, how would I use it for a new low but closes above the two previous bars closes, would I just change the H to L in the formulae? , thanks' John, You seem to be quite good at formulae's, do you know if a formulae can be used to pick up chart patterns, Ive got the add on, but it's pretty useless...thanx for your help.

I was going to let you do the sell side. Reverse everything including the greater/less than
symbols and post what you did if you have trouble.
Can a formulae be used to pick up chart patterns? depends on the chart pattern, what
are you trying to do?

You could post a chart showing exactly what you want, but most of that stuff is easier
programmed outside of MS is my guess.

LB1:=Input("1st lookback length", 1,260,1);
LB2:=Input("2nd lookback length", 2,261,2);
A1:=(H>Ref(H,-LB1))*(H>Ref(H,-LB2));
A2:=(C<Ref(C,-LB1))*(C<Ref(C,-LB2));
A3:=A1*A2;
A4:=(L<Ref(L,-LB1))*(L<Ref(L,-LB2));
A5:=(C>Ref(C,-LB1))*(C>Ref(C,-LB2));
A6:=A4*A5;
Signal:=If(A3=1,1,If(A6=1,-1,0));
Signal
