Re: [amibroker] Help with formula

Henry:
 
William's code is correct and the simplest. Another way to do it, although 
not exactly what you asked for but similar, is this:
 
//first create a 5-day (or x-day) moving average of ADX(14), then create a 
condition where the ADX is less than the 5-day or x-day ma. 
 
ADXAv=ma(ADX(14),5)<=20; //you can also use ema rather than ma
 
Buy = Cond3 AND ADX(14)<ADXAv; 
 
Have fun.

  Hello 
  Henry,
   
  This is one way to do it, 
  just add the formula to your conditions..
  
  /* Created 
  using PowerScan. Date: 31 
  Aug 2003The ADX for the previous 5 bars has been above 20 
  */Buy = BarsSince( <FONT 
  color=#0000ff>ADX( 14 ) <= <FONT 
  color=#ff00ff>20 ) >= <FONT 
  color=#ff00ff>5;
