Got an email from someone that was looking for a "long" filter, so I gave him one....but then told him he should use one of my favorite indicators....VFI(130). I'm sure many of you out there are very familiar with this one, and if you are....do you know how to construct VFI(130)into filter form? If so....his name is "Dennis," and I know he would be very grateful! BTW, the formula can be found in the June,2004 issue of Stocks and Commodities Magazine for anyone interested. I use it at prophet.net
Many Thanx,

Volume Flow Indicator (VFI) by Markos Katsanos
Using Money Flow to Stay with the Trend
Markos Katsanos' article "Using Money Flow to Stay with the Trend" did not have a MetaStock Trader's Tip as the article contained all the formulas.
VFI
PERIOD:=Input("PERIOD FOR VFI",5,1300,130);
COEF:=.2;
VCOEF:=Input("MAX VOLUME CUTOFF",0,50,2.5);
INTER:=Log(Typical())-Log(Ref(Typical(),-1));
VINTER:=Stdev(INTER,30);
CUTOFF:=COEF*VINTER*C;
VAVE:=Ref(Mov(V,PERIOD,S),-1);
VMAX:=VAVE*VCOEF;
VC:=If(V<VMAX,V,VMAX);
MF:=Typical()-Ref(Typical(),-1);
VFI:=Sum(If(MF>CUTOFF,+VC,If(MF<-CUTOFF,-VC,0)),PERIOD)/VAVE;
Mov(VFI,3,E);

You might as well get a head start in learning some MetaStock codes, considering that you'll want to use it in the foreseeable future. Here's a link to the copy of "MetaStock Pro 8.0 Manual" and "MetaStock Formula Primer":

Why would I want to learn it in the forseable future? I write my own automated trading software. ;)
