Hi there
i am very new to this so apologies if this osunds a bit silly, but I have set up a new indicator (called "Universal Oscillator") in my Metastock 14 and all I want to do is backtest it using the rules buy when it crosses up above 0 and sell when it crosses down below zero.
I am in the system editor but I do not know enough about the language to create a buy order formula and a sell order formula. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

without seeing your code
A:=Fml(“Universal Oscillator”);
Signal:=If(Cross(A,0),1,If(Cross(0,A),-1,0));
{The last line of code would be}
{for a buy signal}Signal=1 and Ref(Signal,-1)<>1
{for a sell Signal} Signal=-1 and Ref(Signal,-1)<>-1
just make sure that the last line of your custom code is your output for that formula!
