Would this Datenum()==1010521 work in my exploration below to make it
explore the date 10/15/03 in the same way it will explore tonight for setups
that occur on 1/14/04 from the fresh download of todays market data?
If so, I would appreciate someone placing it in my exploration so that It
will explore for signals that occurr on that specific date. I learn by
seeing examples of what I want to do. Ron D
