Hi everyone,

I realise this may very well be reinventing the wheel: and I 
apologise in advance for the ideas I've shamelessly copied from 
Richard Dale and Jose Silva, but here it is.

I want to plot a conditional indicator such that I am signalled an 
exit when c<entry*.9 or, when entry*.9< ma(c,50,e), I'll take the ma.

I got as far as: (and this is where the plagiarism starts!)

Exit Indicator

entryday:=Input("Day of month",1,31,1);
entrymonth:=Input("Month",1,12,1);
entryyear:=Input("Year",1900,2050,2005);
entryprice:=Input("Entry Price",0,5000,0);
entryprice2:= If(entryprice>0,entryprice,C);
initstop:= entryprice2 *.9;
trailstop:= Mov(c,50,e)

initstop > trailstop, initstop, trailstop
{I'm sure my problems are in this line, because it's ALL my own 
work. HA! ;-)  )

entryfulldate:= (entryyear)+(entrymonth/12)+(entryday/365);
fulldate := Year()+Month()/12+DayOfMonth()/365;
entry:= entryfulldate > Ref(fulldate,-1) AND entryfulldate <= 
fulldate;

I'd be gratified if anyone could help me on this one. It's all one 
big learning experience: and I'm sitting on the backend of the 
learning curve at the moment!

Kind regards as always

DD
