The one guy who might have the MS code is Spyros. He's one of the
world's top experts on the zig zag. He stopped using MS about a year
ago, but maybe he has the code.

consider myself a very competent formula writer. I always wondered
how the zig zag formula was created. It seems straight forward
enough. I think if I spend enough time on it I could figure it out
totally. Part of the problem is that I am a active player in the
market and there just isn't enough time in the day. Thanks for being
honest with your limitations. If I come up with the formula I will
post it. For now I will just move on. Good luck to all and keep
building the most profitable trading system.
