Ron Now that you are getting the hang of programming with Amibroker use the "Param" function to modifiy what you have.  You can dynamically change the term length of the Zig  that you have to see multiple Zigs on the same indicator.  Just remember to be careful interpreting the last Zig to the right.  Please see the caution in using the Zig function in the help files.  Steve At 04:05 PM 7/4/2003 -0500, you wrote: Today, I finally spent some time looking at the ZIG indicator.  I have attached some charts that demonstrate Zig's  ability to identify uptrends and downtrends. I am wondering if anyone has developed AFL code that can be used to scan for symbols that are in uptrends, as well as another scan for symbols  that are downtrending. I am interested in any and all AA analysis coding that will help me better understand Zig.  I searched the AFL library, but failed to see anything that looked like it could scan for Zig uptrends. My very short look at Zig makes me think it may be one of the better indicators to use  for determining when to exit a position.   Is the sensitivity of  Zig adjustable? If it is, then perhaps one could adjust Zig so it takes you out of some of the more serious pullbacks.  Maybe it can be fine tuned to match the individual trader's tolerance of pullbacks. I have not yet found the time to learn anything about  optimizing, so I will not be able to do anything in that area.    BTW, I am very interested in starting, or joining an Amibroker usergroup here in Dallas, Tx, so please contact me if you live in the Dallas area and know of an existing group, or are interested in starting such a group.  All help will be appreciated.  Ron D Yahoo!
