chellester,

There is a users manual in the file section that you may wish to 
refer to.

CUM:Calculates a cumulative sum of the DATA
ARRAY from the first period in the chart.
EXAMPLE The formula "cum( 1 )" calculates an
indicator that rises one point for each day
since the beginning of the chart; the formula
"cum( C )" calculates the cumulative total of
all closing prices from the beginning of the
chart.


Hope this helps,

Preston
