No, because it is sick idea implemented in MS because they
don't have a normal loop construct in the language.
Metastock PREV essentially re-calculates entire array (number
of bars)-times resulting (number of bars) performance degradation.
So if you have say 10000 bars, the code runs 10000
slower.
Everything that you do in MS using PREV should be coded using
the loop in first place instead
- and the resulting code will be 2 or 4 orders of
magnitude faster.
Search the archive of the mailing list how to write loop
equivalent.

Hi all,
Has any one worked out a universal AFL Function = the
perversity in MetaStock that is called PREV.
Thanks
