Hello Tim,
Some time ago, you kindly helped me out with a problem I was having (See
original email below).
I've just returned to this code recently as i'm now looking to make some
modifications to it but am a little confused with part of it. The code that
confuses me is the bit you call a "latch"
" Long:=Long and Sum(Long,5)=1;
The 5 can be changed to what ever period you like, and the resultant 1 can
be as well.
The reverse for the short would be
Short:=Short and Sum(Short,5)=1; "
Consequently, could you expand on the above code and just explain what it's
actually doing.
Thanks for any help and my apologies for the (probably very daft) question,
Bien
