I think what threw me off was if I was looking for an indicator that
comes already loaded with AB, in the filter line I could just say " MA
(10)", or "RSI(9)" and the program would know what I was looking for.
I could not think of how to name my indicator so the exploration
would recognize it the way it recognizes "MA(10)".I didnt know I had
to actually have the indicator code in with the exploration code.
Thanks again.
