<DIV> Hi RT's</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I need some help writing an indicator
in MetaStock language. If anyone can help or refer me to a site or book, I
would appreciate it.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> The problem is this:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The formula for a pivot is (H yesterday + L yesterday + C
yesterday + O today) / 4</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> I can easily write this to plot on a
daily chart, but it is of most use on an inter-day chart (5 min. etc.) where it
would be a straight line drawn across the chart. Naturally I can just draw
it with the drawing tool, but this method does not allow back testing or
generating signals.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Any suggestions on how to accomplish
this? Thanks in advance.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
Good luck and good trading,</DIV>

Jim,
Do you know if DTN's feed use two-way communication or does it throw its
data at the computer similar to BMI's feed?
Thanks.
