    efs seems to work on historical price.. but in real tie it puts a circle on every new bar formed.

    Replace this whole section of code in your efs (in which BTW you have some redundant brackets)
    PHP Code:
    if (high(0) < high(-1) && low(0) > low(-1) ) { 

             {

                    bAlert = true;

            } 

        } 
    with the following
    PHP Code:
    if (high(0) < high(-1) && low(0) > low(-1) ) {
                bAlert = true;
        } else {
                bAlert = false;
        } 
    This modification should resolve the problem in the code logic

        The error is caused by the following line in the script
        Provided By : eSignal (c) Copyright 2007
        which is missing the characters /* at the beginning of the line ie
        /*Provided By : eSignal (c) Copyright 2007
        that are used to start a comment block
        Once you add those characters the formula should no longer return an error
