class=305474715-06032003>Anthony,
I was
not trying to rub it in at all. As a past MS user I had the same problem
understanding = and ==. Any way, thanks for the link to the paper. I tried to
follow the logic he explained in the the construction and found a different
approach for translation in AB......

however it does not use the WV calculation that confused me and utilizes the
built in ATR function. You might also enjoy the histogram variation as it
clearly demonstrates accumulation versus distribution.

Twiggs Money Flow formulaHi Jayson,No need to rub
it in. Anthony F. has already pointed out my stupidity :(Seriously
though, there was a huge lag yesterday before posts were coming up so I
guess you did not see my earlier admission of dumbness. I remember
all sorts of variations like .EQ. for "equals" and I always used to read :=
as "set to equal" Very confusing for an amateur. I have never used
Metastock but its combination for "equals" seems easier to
grasp.Back to the topic. The formula now works and for those unfamiliar
with it and would like to read more, check out <A
