hey arna.... the code for sell countdown  is the same except replace the '<' with a '>'.... i coded both buy and sell on up to 14.... the exploration would be just the day 9 code.... i ran it last night .... came up with a bunch oil related issues...

day 9 is the buy signal.... the perfection buy has a few more conditions.... below is a very rough first draft of it......

i also created a layout  and template with both daily and weekly time frames, looks promising....

i also created a intraday 5 time frame layout and template.... looks equaly promising.....

i'll up date that exe later to include everything along with the 4 companion indicators for the layout/template....

and btw, thanks for the question.....we all learn.....h

h....

Cannot
Code:

a:=(C < Ref(C,-4) AND
Ref(C,-1) < Ref(C,-5) AND
Ref(C,-2) < Ref(C,-6) AND
Ref(C,-3) < Ref(C,-7) AND
Ref(C,-4) < Ref(C,-8) AND
Ref(C,-5) < Ref(C,-9) );


be written as:
Code:

a:=Sum(C < Ref(C,-4),6)=6



This will save you some typing!!!
