Efrain,
I've not had this problem using the Indicator Builder, but I have maxed
out the 1024 character limit in the System Tester. This sometimes
happens while I'm writing a formula for an exit (close long), and have
to include the entire Enter Long formula...sometimes several times.
Rather than use Excel, what I do is pick an obvious place (AND; OR; <;
>,....), and the break the formula into two parts. Then I create a new
custom "indicator" by pasting the first half into the Indicator
Builder, naming it something appropriate like "exit formula, part 'A'
", ...create a second new "indicator" by pasting in the second half and
naming it "exit formula,
part 'B' ".
...anyway, instead of using 1024+ characters, now all I gotta to do write
something like:
Low < Highestsince(1, FML( " long exit formula, part 'A' ") AND
FML( " long exit formula, part 'B' ") , REF(mov(c,18,e),-1).
You ought to be able to do the same thing with your indicator...you could
even name it
"fantastically long indicator formula, part 'A' " and "fantastically
long indicator formula, part 'B' " <g>
good luck.
