Peter:
I won't bother you again. If you look at your objectives using your money in
markets around the world, you will want to know what you are doing. This
requires effort to learn. The AB help users guide is one of the best
around. Start simple. You CAN write simple formulas in AFL language after
just a little bit of reading. Ask for specific help when you get stuck and
someone will help. Eventually you learn enough to help people here just
like they help you. If you are not willing or able to do that simple thing,
then folks here will just delete your messages.
I have spoken enough.
Good luck,
Ken

Ken
I don't know Metastock language, I find formulas in internet and I
don't know how to translate them into AFL language, because I don't
know how to write in this language. I use Amibroker and I copy in my
system the formulas that I find here or in Amibroke's home page, but
really I don't know how to write in AFL language. I did the example
in AA but it doesn't go.
Thanks
Peter
