In Metastock Pro 7.0, the three balance lines are different yet. If you are
interested, I killed a few minutes matching his new lines. They are all of
longer length.
I would expect Bill to keep developing his system and keep changing it. If
he published it in a book (which I have read) then his current system that he
uses for trading, is probably different yet.
I have done extensive testing of his system and I like it. The parameters
that he uses in his book is good for end-of-day. Some of his other
parameters maybe better for various intraday time frames.
The moral here is test it yourself and experiment with it. You will learn a
lot.
