All 101 symbols have 943 bars.
All symbols begin the 3/1/2000 and are updated up to 3/10/2003.
My Plot(Foreign("~COUNT","V"),"",1,1); is absolutely flat horizontal
at 101 for all quotations.
No other ticker is in the holy group254.
I didnīt notice *any* problem for MACD(200,300) or MACD(10,500).
So, there should be another reason, because the modified
function select( listnum )
{
list = GetCategorySymbols( categoryGroup, listnum );
Rank = 0;
for( i = 0; ( sym = StrExtract( list, i ) ) != ""; i++ )
{
SetForeign(SYM);
global Buy;
global Sell;
Buy=Cross(StochD(),30);Sell=Cross(50,StochD());
E1=Equity(0,1,100);
f=LastValue(E1);
Rank[BarCount-1-i] = f;
}
return Rank ;
}
No=254;
R= Select(No);H0=Select(No);G=0;
Plot(H0,"",2,2);
equally suffers from the same problem. The plot is not universal
and changes from stock to stock.

But, this Equity(0, 1, 100 ), if I understand well, will give me the
result of the last 100 bars trading. I want the Lastvalue(Equity())
for all existing data.

No, there are no holes at all and the results change from ticker to
ticker.
More confused now...
