HI metstocktrader

It isn't possible to use two periodicities in one test.

Have a look at http://www.metastocktips.co.nz/ for weekly indicators
on daily chart formulae. I would recommend subscribing to the the
MetaStock Tips and Tools newsletter on the same site. It is worth
every cent.

Regards

Stuart
