Nate,

Syntax errors would be coming from the fact that the base index in the Austall ords. ie XAO. Replace with DJI for US and ensure you have your industries set up correctly.

Also remember it is up to you to determine the period you want to trade over (and do some back testing). I like Stan Weinstein so maPeriod would be 150.

In the US market you should be able to add a volume criteria like

cond10 = Volume > 2* ma(volume,maPeriod); 

as Weinstein says.

In Aust volume is more subtle and I don't have a good criteria - though OBVmay assist. Don't know at present.

You guys are having such fun with the Tate Method- and I feel like a hungry<BR>
kid with his nose pressed up against the window of the restaurant watching<BR>
everyone gorging themselves. When I load what you have written, I get<BR>
nothing but syntax error messages.<BR>
<BR>
Of course, I can't run the Bang for Buck program either. If you can, I'd<BR>
welcome some advice about what to do to get these programs to run.<BR>
<BR>
Absent that, I'm going to have to quit my day job and get a degree in<BR>
engineering so I can try and keep up with all of you. Spare me! Have Mercy :>)<BR>
<BR>
Additionally, can I substitute ^ndx (NASDAQ Exchange) or ^djia (DOW JONES<BR>
INDUSTRIALS)for XAO? Or is this formula just for Australian stocks?<BR>
<BR>
Wasting away to nothing while waiting....   Nate<BR>
