Notice that no stocks are returned today - reason is that the VIX is no longer above the upper limit.

Kevin,

I added the following to my backtesting, but it doesn't work. I scanned from 7/2009 to present day:

set{VIX, ind(^VIX, close)}
set{VIXMA, cma(vix,10)}
set{upperlimit, VIXMA * 1.1}
set{lowerlimit, VIXMA * 0.9}

set{BUYTRIGGER, count(VIX above upperlimit,1)}
set{SELLTRIGGER, count(VIX below lowerlimit,1)}

set{BUYTRIGGER, count(VIX above upperlimit,1)}
set{SELLTRIGGER, count(VIX below lowerlimit,1)}


buytrigger above 0.5

It doesn't work, so what am I not doing right?

Thanks
