@graftonian,

1. From the short bit of testing of that filter it appears that the excerpt "cema(var9, 3)" in var10 is creating some kind of plotting issue if SF. If I make var10 = to the constant value, that the filter calculates for var10 today, the lines at 20 and 80 plot fine. ( I know from some previous filters, once variables get around double digits SF sometimes runs into complexity stoppages.

I have not yet tried consolidating some of the variables to make it simpler to see if that solves the issue....

2. Currently in the 3rd chapter of the Weinstein book and taking my time reading it, seems well written and thorough with lots of charts; though I haven't read much beyond buying when price crosses above up-sloping 30 week weighted moving avg, after a Stage 1 basing period, and sell when it crosses back down thru flat 30 week weighted moving avg( Stage 3)

I assume he'll explain how he uses the relative strength line in more detail later on in the book with probably lots of other trading ideas.

3. I'm curious to see how Stage 2 situations on various stocks correlate to ADX values greater than 30 when plus DI is greater than minus DI, etc.

Thanks,
Ed S.

Ed, Thanx for the help, I'll rewrite some of the code to see if I can break up the bottleneck.

/*BUY WHEN STC CROSSES ABOVE 20, SHORT WHEN STC CROSSES BELOW 80*/
draw stclong line at 80
draw stclong line at 20
