hello....I have been trying to set up the below indicator and want to ask
you a few..I have it in my filter and the report I get does not seem top
meet the logic...when you say add your explorer are you using moving
averages or roc or tema and do you use the DM as a trigger in the filter or
exclusively just for setup..I also use a minimum volume as a criteria..do
you use this as well....thanks for your time..
