I like statements that go
If Close - pivot > 0 look for buys
If Close - Pivot < 0 look for sells
I made each thing into a function and call it for the buy and sell 
conditions.
I use this as a qualifier for a lot of different things , seemed like an 
easy solution at the time ,

I am not an easy language whiz 
, but this still is the best thing I can think of to solve 
the problem and it still works for me.

  Subject: [RT] Tweak a system??????
  
  Dont you just love that 
  word....tweak?
   
  I have been usning a system to daytade both the e 
  mini s&p and e mini nasdaq that works very well but I would like to 
  enhance it a little. It works well but I would like to increase the winning 
  percentage by ony initiating a long above the pivot (previous days 
  high+low+close/3) or a short below the pivot. I would also like the system to 
  tell me what the system would of had me trade....then ignoring it if it does 
  not meet these criteria for initiating a new position. In english this would 
  be: only enter the sytems long trades above the pivot, and only initiate short 
  trades below the pivot. Obviously i can just ignore these in my mind.....but I 
  want to be able to backtest this to see if it would help....or hurt. I am 
  using tradestation 6. Any advice would help....I do not know easy 
  language.
