Thanks very much Preston for narrowing down the problem. I found one
error in my "Zig Trend Cycle" formula, which is an adaptation of a
Spyros Raftopoulos formula but I'm still getting a "An MSX DLL is
reporting a floating point overflow error referenced DLL
"forumdll.VarRSI" when I use it as a variable period input. It ("Zig
Trend Cycle") plots fine on it's own, as does VAR StochRSI" but they
don't together. Here is the code for "Zig Trend Cycle" with comments
on the original by Mr. Raftopoulos. I have tried to make it a cycle
count indicator. Please excuse my pathetic coding abilities:
{The SR Zigzag Trend indicator.
This indicator returns 1 for valid uptrend and -1 for valid
downtrend, REJECTING ALL the INVALID readings of zig().
It can be used as a stand-alone indicator (even in zig's place).
It is useful for visual inspection but also for many other purposes.
ALL its readings (present and past ones) are trusty. It can be safely
used in systems and if pasted in the system tester its variables can
be even optimised.
In my opinion one does not really need my "ZigZag Validity" anymore.
One can do the job much more effectively with "SR ZigZag Trend" which
is always reliable and safe. Additionally "SR ZigZag Trend" ("SR ZZT"
for short) returns also the direction of the trend. It is like having
an always-valid zigzag indicator!
This indicator can calculate not only Close prices but also other
price fields including various plots. This means that you can drop it
on RSI, Stochastics etc. provided that the "vr" value=0 (the "P"
variable), which for this reason is the default option.
One can also choose between the Percent and the Points method. The
last one is better suited to indicators, especially those, which
return negative values.}
