Keep us all posted on the results of your
programming.
Thanks!

indicators myself. I've got his book so that shouldn't be a
problem.

Error in Sinewave 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

PMTo: Metastock ListSubject: Error in Sinewave
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.
