You 
need to define that yesterday's Close was below the 40EMA to 
make Today's status unique, as follows:
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2>C>=Mov(C,40,E) AND Ref(C,-1)<Mov(C,40,E)
<FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff 
size=2> 
Enjoy 
Metastock Version 8.

  [EquisMetaStock Group] Expert Symbol/Alert problemI 
  am new to Metastock, having just purchased Version 8. I am trying to replicate 
  a setup I had in a previous program, with limited success.This formula 
  signals a "buy" using the Expert: (C)>=Mov(C,40,E). The reverse signals a 
  "sell". I want to have a Buy symbol placed on the chart on the first day 
  (only) that the above Buy condition is met. And I want to have a Sell symbol 
  placed on the chart on the first day (only) that the Sell condition is 
  met.I tried to set this up with an Expert Symbol function, but I get a 
  Buy symbol EVERY day that the Buy condition is met; and the Sell symbol every 
  day the Sell condition is met. This makes for a very messy chart. So I 
  tried to use the Alert function. But it opens an Alert window every day that I 
  open the chart; not just the first day the condition is met, and it does not 
  leave any marker on the chart.I am sure there is a way to achieve 
  this. What am I missing?HarryTo
