There are some interesting articles here on the site you mentioned
http://www.mesasoftware.com/pub/index.html I believe he explains many
indicators included in MESA plus others and some have ONLY the EASYLanguage
code however. Did you tried to put this in Metastock already Ton ?
Greetings

> Here is a set of new indicators that you can program
> yourselves. The
> first of these indicators I call an INSTANTANEOUS TRENDLINE. It works
> because it completely removes the dominant cycle from a
> smoothing average.
> For the mathematically inclined, the Fourier Transform of a
> rectangular
> window (formed by a simiple average) is a Sin(X)/X distribution. The
> objective is to place the first null of this distribution
> exactly at the
> dominant cycle. For the intuitively inclined, what we are
> doing is taking
> a simple average over the full dominant cycle period. In
> such an average,
> there are as many sample points above the midpoint as below
> the midpoint
> with the result that the sum of all these sample points is zero.
> OK, so all we have to do to get an Instantaneous Trendline
> is to take a
> simple average whose length is exactly the period of the
> dominant cycle.
> For those of you who have TradeStation and MESA96, you just
> insert the dc
> variable for the length of the simple moving average. For
> those of you who
> have MetaStock or other toolbox packages, you just have to
> estimate the
> length of the dominant cycle and insert that estimate as your moving
> average period. Of course, this estimate is fixed across your entire
> screen, but the dominant cycle length can be varying. So
> watch out for
> that problem.
> The next indicator is created by taking a moving average
> over half the
> period of a dominant cycle. In this case, the amplitude of
> the dominant
> cycle is attenuated by exactly 2/PI. Our objective is to
> restore the full
> amplitude of the cyclic portion. So we take this latest
> moving average,
> subtract the "Instantaneous Trendline", multiple the
> difference by PI/2
> (1.57 approximately), and then add the Instantaneous
> trendline back. Since
> the lag of a moving average is about half the moving average
> window length,
> this modified half dominant cycle moving average will still
> lag the realy
> cyclic swing by a quarter cycle.
> Now, when we look at these two moving averages, we can make two
> assessments. First, we now solve the age-old problem of what is the
> trendline. We have create an adaptive trendline. Secondly,
> we can see the
> cyclic swing relative to this trendline so that we can assess
> the amplitude
> of the cyclic movement. If this cyclic amplitude is not
> several times that

> cyclic move becomes a crapshoot. In other words, the signal
