John:
You are right. Equis does provide tech
support. It is better than most. The main reason that I have not
considered any Omega's products is there no tech support. Just look at the Omega
newsgroups.

That's what I like about Equis. They acknowledge
the problem and agree to fix it. The people at Tradestation won't even
answer the phone.

Subject: More Errors
I have discovered one and probably two errors
in MetaStock formulas. When the Polarized Fractal Efficiency (14-day period,
1-day smoothing) is applied to a security with a large numerical value for
price, such as cocoa, the value of the PFE can exceed +or-100. This can't
be, according to the definition of the PFE. I have brought this to the
attention of TechSupport and they agree that the values are in error. They
say this will be corrected in the next update.
Also, the following trading system
PS Consolidation
Breakout
<P
class=MsoNormal>var1:=If(((BBandTop(C,20,S,2)-BBandBot(C,20,S,2))<(1.75*ATR(1)))
AND Cross(H,BBandTop(C,20,S,2)),1,If(ATR(1)
AND Cross(BBandBot(C,20,S,2),L),-1,0));
var1=1
<P
class=MsoNormal>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
seems to have an error that I
have highlighted in red. The second ATR(1) in var1 is always positive and
thus seems to be unnecessary. I can guess as to what was supposed to be
there, but I'd rather not. Since I don't plan to use this system, I haven't
bothered to contact TechSupport about it.
Just thought others would like to
know about these. If I'm wrong about this I'm sure someone(s) will let me
know.
