Kevin, 
It is my honour and privilege to be in esteemed company here, and I really enjoy the interaction. 
I have learnt a lot from here, and have no hassles in "giving something" back. Whatever I can. 
Sure, your code for explorations would be welcome. Who knows, Jose or Roy may even polish it up and enhance it for all of us to share.

Hello Dusant,

Thanks   for your comments. You may well be right.

Thanks too for your regular   and interesting postings. And speaking of Fibonacci, I have written an   exploration that detects stocks whose price has hit a fib level. It's not   rocket science but it did involve a lot of typing! If you're at all   interested, let me know and I'll post it.

Regards,
Kevin

   Kevin,
What you are asking is a     matter of both price and time. Therefore, its really is not possible     to project both time and price in an indicator. Yes, the upper and     lower levels of a trigger can be calculated one day in     advance.
There was something written about Reverse     Engineering the RSI, and the formulae are also available in various     places.
Personally, I have tried using this method, and found that it     does not in any way enhance my trading.
I still feel the trailing stop     loss method to be the best to lock in profits, and the fibonacci extensions     to "project" price targets.
My very humble opinion.

         Hello,

         Signals are given when a certain event occurs, e.g. two moving         averages         cross over and/or the RSI crosses below, say, 70.

         Has anybody looked a way of formulating ahead of time the price that         an         equity has to hit in order to trigger a particular signal? For         example,         let's say that on a certain day the price of a stock is 75, the         value of         the 20MA is 80 and the value of the 50MA is 85. What will the price         of the         stock be if and when the 20MA crosses above the 50MA? How many days         ahead         would one be able to calculate it?

         So, let's say that you would initiate a long trade when, say, the         20MA         crosses above the 50MA as long as the RSI(14) is greater than 50.         Rather         than wait until one notices that this combination of events has         occurred,         could one instead place a limit buy order in the market ahead of         time, at a         specific price, confident that if the order is executed, the MA and         RSI         signals have actually been triggered? If so, how far ahead?

         Any comments?

         Regards,         Kevin
