Alex, that LRS indicator uses a "P" function - it forces The Explorer
to prompt for a plot to apply the code to.
Try using this code in ColA:


MetaStock -> Tools -> The Explorer -> New
Copy and paste formula below.

============================
Linear Regression true slope
============================

{ Linear Regression true Slope v3.5 }
{ -100~+100% / -90~+90 degrees }

pds:=21;  {Linear Regression periods}
pds1:=5;  {Lin Reg Signal periods}
x:=4;     {Open=1, High=2, Low=3, Close=4, Volume=5}
display:=1; {display  -100~100%=1,  -90~90 degrees=2}
plot:=1;  {[1] LinReg Slope,  [2] signals}

x:=If(x=1,O,If(x=2,H,If(x=3,L,If(x=5,V,C))));
LRlast:=LinearReg(x,pds);
LRS:=LinRegSlope(x,pds);
LRprev:=LRlast-LRS;
{LRstart:=Ref(LRlast-LRS*(pds-1),pds-1);}

a:=Min(LRlast,LRprev)/Max(LRlast,LRprev);
LRratio:=(If(LRlast>LRprev,2-a,a)-1)*80;
LRSdeg:=If(LRratio<0,Atan(LRratio,1)-360,
 Atan(LRratio,1));
LRSper:=LRSdeg*10/9;
LRStrue:=If(display=2,LRSdeg,LRSper);
signal:=Mov(LRStrue,pds1,E);
BuySell:=
 Cross(LRStrue,signal)-Cross(signal,LRStrue);

{If(plot=1,LRStrue,BuySell)}
LRSdeg

Subject: importing COTR data into Metastock


As a futures trader I collect and analyze the CFTC Commitment of
Traders data on a weekly basis using Excel...is there an easy way to
import this data in Metastock ? I have played around with importing
Excel files into Metastock but have found it too cumbersome to be
practical...

Subject: Re: importing COTR data into Metastock



Each CoT report data line has 129 information fields - MetaStock can
only handle six of those per data file.

If that's not enough to deal with, the CFTC changes the CoT data field
format now and then, adding new contracts (and/or changing the
contract names) on a regular basis, making the MetaStock data
extraction process even more cumbersome.
http://www.cftc.gov/cftc/cftchome.htm

Extracting accurate and meaningful CoT data in MetaStock format is
almost a full-time job.

This is a summary of the latest available CoT data:

CoT updates available weekly in MetaStock format,
for commercial, large speculators and small traders contracts.

Subject: CoT (Commitment of  Traders) data for Metastock


Matt, I can vouch for the source of the most accurate historical CoT
data available, because I've put it together for them.  ;)
http://www.paritech.com.au/products/data/cotdata.asp

As from 1/Jan/2005 Paritech is now updating their own CoT data, so I
can't vouch for its accuracy as from that date.

BTW, this is what CoT data looks like in MetaStock:
http://users.bigpond.com/prominex/CoT/CoTwarning.jpg
"28/Dec/04 - Major investors in the markets are short as never before
- the tide is going out..."  - Time will tell.

Jose
Any chance of a three or four sentence lesson in interpreting the chart you
attached?  At first blush, a sentiment indiacator like COT would be a
perfect confirmation for the MACD tool that you offer.

Thanks Jose for your quick response.   Now that you'd mentioned it I
noticed the "P" reference in the original code.  The new code works.

Thanks again,
