Larry,
The method is simple. The Expert cannot accept
variables as in the formula builder. So the alternative is, to either specify
the variable before the condition, or write the code in the formula builder, and
call the formula every time you need it.
The simpler alternative would be to create the
code in a formula.
And instead of using the > or < symbols,
use the cross(), because you want to identify the particular day, when the
condition was met.
Excuse me, but the pressures of time do not allow
me to test my code, but I request you to please try and build on
this.
writeif(M1:= max(Mov(C,50,S),
Mov(C,100,E);M2:= max(Mov(C,150,E), M1);cross(C, M2), "Exit
Long. ")\
I have written it line by line for the simplicity
of expression. You can remove the line breaks in your code.
Best wishes.

Subject: [Metastockusers] Re: Help with
WriteIF and Expert
Dusant,I am having a problem with the code sample
from you. Remember, my "Enter Long" and "Enter Short" are working as
planned. It's the "Exit Long" and "Exit Short" that's the
problem.So I'm not sure about your code. Also, your "M:=" is giving me
problems.Could you elaborate on how to write the Exit
Long?Thanks much,- <A
