Well, I know what I am doing with MS but haven't the foggiest about Amibroker; it looks like a very good product, and very good value at that; but programming wise, it looks like much more difficult than MS.
Thank you for your answer, Lionel.

          There is no direct translation from Amibroker to Metastock. If you
understand what the Amibroker code is doing, you might be able to write
equivalent Metastock code.

Could you tell me a bit more about this book,please? I cannot find any
review on it, and on the address you have provided, it is stated that the
codes used are for Amibroker, while I use Metastock only; is there such a
big difference between MS and Amibroker on coding issues? Were you able to
translate one code into another? Thanks.

Eduardo.
