>From a quick look through without trying it, and assuming that
Longsetup is a True/False type array, I can't see any reason why it
wouldn't work. I could be missing something though.
One thing that may need to be considered is whether the Cross function
will return True if H and HHV(H,3) are the same at Longsetup and then
H moves above it. If the high four bars before Longsetup was the
highest of the four, and then those three highs were all the same or
progessively higher, then the high moving above Triggerpoint again
would not constitute a cross (ie. if the high came down, rose steadily
to the Longsetup bar and then rose above it again). You could perhaps
just test for H > Triggerpoint instead and then use ExRem to remove
any redundant buy signals if you wanted to, or go back to your
original Triggerpoint condition with the additional 0.01.
