Hello
I would like to modify an existing formula to only show me when it fires true or false on the day that I scan. In this case I'm using the LMS MACD Divergence exploration. It works great but I would like to narrow down the signals to the current scan day. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the formula;
IND:= MACD();
ST:=(Trough(1,LOW,5)) INDT:=Trough(1,IND,20) > Trough(2,IND,20);
ST AND INDT
This is in colF, ColA=C and and ColJ= BarsSince(colA)
That looks better.
Thanks in advance

Boss,
1. There's no signal defined -- is that the complete formula?
2. Any use of PEAK (or TROUGH) can change, as data is added; this means the signal can change AFTER THE FACT.

I see, your right all the formula does is provide a -1,0,1 in the exploration report.
So when you say it changes after the fact do you mean it may show up one day and not the next?

However, if you know what you want, just put in the FILTER tab, and the Exploration will only select for that criteria.

Brian A number of functions are "dangerous" when "not used as directed"; they can either change over time or look into future. Search the forum for Zig(), Peak(), Trough() or LastValue() and keyword "dangerous".

Formula edited, sorry I don't know where that other on came from.
Bad copy and past.

What I'm seeing in the email and what's here on the forum don't match. You need to use TAGS before & after any code, like this: Put between * code* and * /code*
