while that msg is a useful technique, it still won't get where I'm try to go, at 
least in that form.

the Nth highest value of your indicator on each day. If you're using that by 
itself, just checking whether a given stock's indicator value is that or above 
tells you if it's in the top N.

turnover today, and held each one until a custom AFL stop was hit. Some time 
after that buy, when 3 stocks hit their sell triggers, you need to replace 
them. You don't need the top 20 stocks this time, you need the top 3, since 
that's all the position slots you have available.

its current form. Most things are though (:-).

  Dave, I have been looking for a simpler way to finding the top Nstocks 
  using AFL. I am currently using the Osaka plug-in, the code I'musing with 
  it is in message 50457.Cheers Glenn
