I suppose easy is a function of what you know or are willing to learn. A
time series and its associated indicators can be treated as vectors, so a
general math tool that makes easy work of vector operations might work. I
think I have already suggested some free tools that fit this description
(Yorick comes to mind). But then you would have to learn to program that
tool. Is that too much work? Using VB[A] doesn't make sense unless you
either have a function library or are willing to write one. If I was going
to write one it wouldn't be in VB. If you want the fewest lines of code
something like Perl would be a good choice. Again it is a choice of how
much time and effort you are willing to put into it.
Cheers,
Jim
