First of all, thanks to DT, and Andrew for
responding to my recent post which I entitled IIF's within IIF's. Andrew
referred to my efforts as nested IIF's. I tested their recommendations,
and the results of their suggestions were so good that it only
increased my resolve to perfect my nested IIF's scan. I finally got my
nested IIF's scan to work as I wanted it to. Now I am trying to
add PRECONDITIONS to this nested IIF scan which will
eliminate many of the less desirable buy arrows.
Nothing I have tried so far will work as I intended it to
work. I want to add two preconditions to this nested IIF scan,
either of which will help prevent the appearance of buy arrows when an
unacceptable occurrence of Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); happens. These
two preconditions will greatly improve the accuracy of the nested IIF
scan , and it will almost certainly improve any scan that also uses
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14));
PRECONDITION#1--When a stochCross is detected, I
need code that will look back at the past (n) days, and
which will be able to locate the last
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); that occurred at least (n) days prior to the
present Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); A properly coded
version this PRECONDITION#1 code will simply ignore all of the
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); that happened less than (n) days prior
to this present Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)) that has been
detected by the nested IIF scan; Below is
code that works in an improper way. I first ran it alone so I could
see the results of scanning with this precondition alone. When a buy
arrow does appear, it is correctly placed at 10 days after a
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); occurred, and additional sequential
buy arrows also correctly appear up until the day just before another
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); happens. Also, no buy arrows
appear at all when TWO sequential buy stoch
Crosses occur closer than 10 days apart. When I
use "<FONT

at all.
Below is what I tried for this

color=#ff00ff size=1>0);
Buy= Filter <FONT
face="Courier New">AND MinDaysSinceX1;<FONT
size=1> <<This scan works, but not in the way I need it
to.
PRECONDITION#2-- This precondition needs
to compare the PRECONDITION#1 value of stochD(14) which is
the PRESENT value of stochk(14) which occurred
during the PRESENT Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14));.
This PRESENT value of stochD(14) must be higher than the
PRECONDITION#1 value of stochD(14) in order to be in compliance
with PRECONDITION#2.
I tried to run a simple version of PRECONDITION#2 without
PRECONDITION#1 even being taken into consideration.
Below, I have pasted the only version of my
efforts of coding PRECONDITION#2 that performed exactly as it was coded to
do. The only problem is, I had to keep changing the coding in order to get it to
produce any results at all. So the only version that ran <FONT
face=Arial>exactly as the coding asked it to is NOT looking for
the necessary conditions that are required for compliance with
PRECONDITION#2. This incorrect version of
PRECONDITION#2. requires that the value of stochD(14) which
accompanied the last (NOT THE PRESENT) Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)) must be
higher than thethat stochD(14) value which accompanied the
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); <<this is the
stochD value that occurred JUST PRIOR to this last
crossing. This JUST PRIOR crossing is two crossings ago. I need code
which will identify the value of stochd(14) associated with the
Cross(stochk(14),stochd(14)); which occurred JUST PRIOR to the PRESENT
occurrence of Cross(stochk(14),stochD(14));. As
always, all suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Ron
