Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately, wherever you go
(including MetaStock's own web site source "Technical Analysis from A-
Z") it seems that they are missing even the general descriptions of
at least some MetaStock formulas. I need the actual math translation
of about 20 indicators. Since I am not a programmer myself, I was
(naively?) hoping the math was easily documented somewhere or there
was a way to extract the code from MetaStock itself. MetaStock
customer support doesn't even have many of the translations! They
have promised to get back to me with at least some of them and I
would be happy to share. Anyone else with suggestions?

Excel formula language or C++. This way they can paste the
combination of formulas into their own system and use their own price
data to test it. This must be completely separate from Metastock
since they understand math but are suspicious of technical
analysis "black boxes".
