Ton, I'd be satisfied if they would just correct some of the bugs in
6.52?? <br>
Ya know, clean up some of the sloppy buggy code.<br>
<br>
Wouldn't it be great if they would get what we have to work without
crashing and hanging up, etc.? Let's not push it asking for new features.
It might get worse. (Is that possible)?? We'll all be back to paper
charts!!<br>
<br>
BTW - Does 7.0 still have that goofy CD check? Has anyone over there woke
up and gotten rid of that thing yet? Just what I need when I'm in the
middle of trying to figure out how to take everyone else's money away
from them <g> Let's stop - drop what we're doing - loose our train
of thought and hunt up some CD. Brilliant. I'll wager that the person who
thought that up wasn't a trader.<br>
<br>
Instead of being paranoid about some creep stealing stuff, why don't they
go back to producing a product that's so great that we all want to
support them and enjoy paying them just to make sure they stay in
business?? <br>
<br>
They've done it before, maybe if we keep after them they'll do it
again.<br>
<br>
Ton, I appreciate your posts.<br>

Hi Mark, good to hear from you. You're a real "pattern-seeker!" Good stuff.
Double inside day would mean today's an inside day and yesterday was an inside day,
right? If that's he case then use:
{For today is an inside day}
H < Ref(H,-1) and
L > Ref(L,-1) and
{For yesterday was an inside day}
Ref(H,-1) < Ref(H,-1) and
Ref(L,-1) > Ref(L,-1)
Just paste all six lines into your explorer, but perhaps wait 12 hours or so for
others to read my code. Somebody's sure to holler if I got it wrong or made a typo.
Hmmm, then there was also a pattern called "Boomer-Shark", I don't have much on that
one. Maybe you could take a look at the Metastock page and see whether it's listed
there. You might like that one. Written up in TASC, I believe, but who was the
author. Anybody know??? Perhaps you could let me know what you find, if you poke
around anywhere. If not, that's fine too, but you might enjoy the pattern and I
think the author actually did some testing and found that it worked. He is now
living on a large yacht in the South Pacific where . . . ahem!

Flags and pennants would require a little more thought. What's a three day pull
back? For example, in an uptrend, you'd be looking for three successive lower
highs? Would you require lower lows, too? Let me know, OK? This one doesn't sound
so hard.
By the way, here's one you'll get a kick out of. Sometimes it actually works. I
"stole" it from a system called SimpleX, I don't know whether the systems still
around. (Actually it was in the public domain.)
In an up trend, three or four successive lower CLOSES and the EMA(21) is rising.
This may be what you're looking for.
SimpleX LONG:
C <= Ref(C,-1) AND
Ref(C, -1) <= Ref(C, -2) AND
Ref(C, -2) <= Ref(C, -3) AND
Mov(C, 21, E) > Ref(Mov(C, 21, E), -1)
OR
C <= Ref(C,-1) AND
Ref(C, -1) <= Ref(C, -2) AND
Ref(C, -2) <= Ref(C, -3) AND
Ref(C, -3) <= Ref(C, -4) AND
Mov(C, 21, E) > Ref(Mov(C, 21, E), -1)
SimpleX SHORT:
C >= Ref(C,-1) AND
Ref(C, -1) >= Ref(C, -2) AND
Ref(C, -2) >= Ref(C, -3) AND
Mov(C, 21, E) < Ref(Mov(C, 21, E), -1)
OR
C >= Ref(C,-1) AND
Ref(C, -1) >= Ref(C, -2) AND
Ref(C, -2) >= Ref(C, -3) AND
Ref(C, -3) >= Ref(C, -4) AND
Mov(C, 21, E) < Ref(Mov(C, 21, E), -1)
This is the syntax I've been using, but again, wait a day or so until some of the
real syntax aces have a look at the stuff. Maybe they can spruce it up. Rig this
up with an OB/OS oscillator and you've got an entry that is, well, at least worth
considering.

No, but I'll go have a look.
Best regards,
