[Metastockusers] Re: Alan Hull's Rate of Return MetaStock indicator

Hello Jose,

Thanks for the reply, and the code. The Roar indicator now lives in 
my 'valid trend detection' arsenal.

What I was really looking for is Alan's Range indicator. It plots as 
a BB-type MA envelope but, as you'd expect from the name, the bottom 
band looks more like an ATR-type trailer, and perhaps the top band 
is as well.

I wanted to have a play with Alan's bands to see whether they 
offered anything over an ATR envelope. Trawling has gotten me the 
code for the three bands, called Top, Middle and Bottom; and it's a 
cinch to CnP them.

My original question spoke more to a desire to improve my 
understanding of MSFL. What I wanted to be able to do is write a 
custom indicator which plots all three at once, a la the BB 
indicator.

At this stage, I'm thinking that I need still to create all three 
separately and then fml them into a combined one. Am I on the right 
track here?

Kind regards and thanks again.
