Hi Mike


I think MetaStock throws a wobbly when you get to 13 or 14 nested If() functions. If there's a PREV 
in the code somewhere then MS will error sooner rather than later. Remember that MetaStock processes 
the innermost parentheses first, which means it starts with the innermost If(). I don't think 
there's a documented limit, but I take 12 as a practical limit (13 choices?).


Kind regards
