Hi ...
I'm looking for a way to use the expert advisor to put a symbol below the bar that is 40 bars back from the current bar. I tried
c=ref(c,-40) and o=ref(o,-40)
in the expert symbol editor, but that didn't work.
Any ideas?
G-fer

Hi, I am very very New to Metastock 'coding' and please just laugh if the Solution I offer is hilarious !
The formula will mark the 40th Bar from Current bar ! As next bar starts to form it will mark the next bar, hence all the bars previous to the 40th Bar shall be marked !
Use this simple solution :
(Ref(C,40)>0)

You are using a forward Ref function which looks forward in your case 40 bars I don't see the logic in this experiment! I could see it if you have a defined event, but to look back 40 bars to affect a trading decision doesn't make sense.
