>2) Why doesn't MetaStock for Windows have macros?
>
>The changes to MetaStock for Windows (layouts, templates, named-charts,
etc.)
>have reduced the need for macros. For example, you can now display specific
>indicators and rotate through securities; apply a template to numerous
>security files; or print multiple charts - all in a few steps without
needing macros.
>
>Microsoft has defined a standard macro language ("VBA") that is used by
only
>a few programs. The advantage of a standard language are huge - you'll only
>have to learn one set of macro tools. Rather than implementing our own
>non-standard macros, we plan to use the new VBA macro language when tools
>for its implementation become available. In the meantime, there are many
>third-party macro programs available for Windows. You can use one program
>to automate all of your Windows programs.
>(What you learn automating MetaStock, you can apply to automating any of

>The if() function
>---------------------
>
>The if() function (MS-man. p. 207+230) is used to create conditional (i.e.,
"if-then")
>statements. It is perhaps the most used function in the MetaStock formula
language.
>It contains three parameters as shown in the following example
>
>if( close > mov(c,10,s), rsi(9), rsi(14) )
>
>The above "if" statement reads (in English) as follows:
>If today's close is greater than today's 10-day simple moving average of
the close,
>then plot a 9-day RSI, otherwise, plot a 14-day RSI.
>
>The next formula plots "positive volume" if the close is greater than the
median price.
>Otherwise, "negative volume" is plotted.
>
>if( CLOSE > (HIGH+LOW)/2, +V, -V )
>
>A good example of the if() function can be found in the On Balance Volume
example
>(see On Balance Volume MS-man. p. 274).
>{however, this is formula is plain wrong, see the detailed correct natural
OBV formula
>in the MS man.(p 467), in which formula 3x if() function statements are to
be
>calculated to come to the REAL OBV-indicator.}
>
>If you simply want an expression to be evaluated as either true or false,
it can be
>done without the use of the if() function.
>The following formula will result in either a 1 (true) or a 0 (false)
>
>rsi(14) > 70
>
>The above formula statement reads (in English) as follows:
>If the 14-period RSI is greater than 70, then this formula will evaluate to
"true" and
>return the number 1.
>If it is below 70, the formula will evaluate to "false" and return the
number 0.
>This is done without the if() function being used.
>The formula below uses the if() function and will return the same results,
but it is longer.
>
>if(rsi(14) > 70, 1, 0 )
>
>
>SYNTAX if( DATA ARRAY > >= < <= <> = DATA ARRAY,
> THEN DATA ARRAY,
ELSE DATA ARRAY )
>FUNCTION A conditional function that returns the second parameter
(THEN)
> if the conditional expression defined by the first
parameter is true;
> otherwise, the third parameter is returned (ELSE).
>EXAMPLE The formula "if(1<2,3,4)" will always return the value three.
