James,
There's no such animal as a 1.5SMA for -opt1. You'll need to "bound"
both opt1 and opt2 test values to only positive integers in this formula
construction. The "-opt*" will create an effective negative lookback.
A Ref(*,+n) is how they play the game at your corner palm reading
establishment. <G>
