Tom:
You receive a warm fuzzy feeling when you think of the
Equis people that you helped keep employed.
Keep your eye on the up and comers like
AmiBroker. It already beats Metastock in the programming and system
testing areas, and if they get their act together and do the same for charting
it will be a real alternative to future upgrades.

Lionel,
Your point is well taken. I wonder what I got for
that last upgrade, and what, if anything, I will get with the next
one.

Concerning this posting, in particular points 4
thru 7: so? What else is new at Equis support?

Generator
Sean,
Sorry to say, but my modem got zapped by a
lightning surge, I had to reinstall Windows, and I lost my e-mail files.
Thus I can't give you the direct quote of what Equis said. However, I'll
give you my interpretation plus my opinions. You may want to go directly
to Equis for clarification/confirmation.
1. Equis said that the indicators that can be
downloaded from the May 2000 article were written at some later time, and
may not be a direct copy of what Ehlers wrote.
2. The Cycle Length Indicator from the May
2000 does not agree with the one that can be downloaded for the March 2000
article, according to my <FONT
color=#000000>observations.
3. The Sinewave Generator from the May 2000
download does not agree with the MESA Sinewave indicator that is contained
in the Metastock indicator list, again according to <FONT
color=#ff0000>my
observations.
4. My <FONT
color=#000000>impression is that someone at Equis who didn't understand
the article did the programming. They did not talk to John Ehlers about
this.
5. Equis said that their programmers are
working on other things now, are very busy, and won't be able to look into
this anytime soon.
6. I have found two other errors in
Metastock's programming lately.
7. My overall conclusion is that you
shouldn't trust any of
their indicators; program it yourself if possible.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you learn
anything else.
Tom

Generator
I recently downloaded from the Equis web
site the Sinewave Generator described in John Ehlers' May, 2000 TASC
article. When I applied it to the Sept 01 Canadian Dollar contract, as
well as others, I got a strange looking plot that missed several
obvious cycles in the price data. I sent the plot to John Ehlers and
he responded that there was an obvious error in the Sinewave
Generator.
I have just notified Equis of this
error.
