Thanks Geoff, yes your right in that the eye
decides the final decision but I was hoping to make it more mechanical once
the mov has been satisfied then search for the set-up and
buysignal..
may have to just add them to a watch groupand the
look from there..or buy tradestation :)
honey i need 5 k
ouch a coffee cup in the back of the head means NO
i guess!

David,
The attached will get you in the vacinity of what
you want - but not by the way you are trying to achieve it.
The problem in coding what you after is the
timeframe it is to happen within. Is it within 3 days, a week, 2 weeks etc
etc.
You'll probably always want to judge foryourself
when the pullback is complete and thus when it is safe to
buy. This code should select
the candidates you're after - but after that it's up to you to pull the
trigger.
/* Breakout - Afl implementation by Geoff
Mulhall 12/5/2001 */
range = 5;maShort = 10;maMedium =
20;
/* Breakout Criteria */
oneAtr = ref(atr(range),-1);
cond1 = close > ma(close,maMedium) + 0.75 *
oneAtr;
buy = cond1;
sell = close < ma(close,maShort);
buy = exrem(buy,sell);sell =
exrem(sell,buy);

oops a fix to part of the formula was ref forward days
(crystal balling)/*bow tie from Dave Landry
12.05.2001*/buymov = close >ma(close,10) Andclose
> ma(close,20) andclose > ma(close,30) ;setup = low<
Ref(low,-1);buysignal = high> ref(high,-1);Buy = setup and
buysignal and buymov ;sell = c<ma(close,20);Now how doi get
it to check the next part:if setup occours then look of buysignal on
following days not the same day ??David---
