Buy=Cross(StochD(),30);
Sell=Cross(50,StochD());
d1=LastValue(ValueWhen(DateNum()==1030902,Cum(1)));
d2=LastValue(ValueWhen(Cum(1)==d1-250,DateNum()));
E1=Equity(0,3,d2,1030904);
Filter=1;
AddColumn(e1,"");
AddColumn(Cum(1),"",1.0);
AddColumn(LastValue(Cum(1))-Cum(1),"",1.0);
AddColumn(d1,"d1");AddColumn(d2,"d2");
