Hi all
Usually when I use an expression like MOV(xx), the xx parameter represents a constand value.
What about when I want to use the MOV(yy), where yy is a formula variable?
The real issue is that I want to run a system tester several times with different values each time.
Since the expressions Function(xx) are many, I thought it would be good to have a formula containing only the variables I would like to change and then change them easily from there.
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance
George

Hi George Download and install the ForumDll_200

(from the Files section) so that you can make use of the variable functions that it provides. If you don't want to do that and you don't mind numbingly slow execution then the following format should work for you in the Enhanced System Tester. This format makes the Periods parameter appear as a constant. Mov(C, LastValue(OPT1 + PREV*0) , E) Mov(C, LastValue(OPT1 + PREV - PREV) , E) LastValue() converts a variable into a constant, and +PREV*0 or +PREV-PREV makes MetaStock recalculate OPT1 on each data bar without affecting the value of OPT1. The second PREV format executes a little faster (not much), but the down side is that it will introduce small errors every so often with some functions. You just need to look at some of the MS 11 Adaptive functions for examples of that effect. Roy
