Esignal formula help....

[mikexny]

Can someone help me export my simple metastock formula to esignal....

Paint the bars blue if-

Mov(C,20,E)>Mov(C,30,E) AND
Mov(C,10,S)>Mov(C,20,E)
AND Mov(C,30,E)< Mov(C,10,S)

Paint the bars red if-

Mov(C,20,E)<Mov(C,30,E) AND
Mov(C,10,S)<Mov(C,20,E)
AND Mov(C,30,E)> Mov(C,10,S)

Paint the bars black if-

neither of the above.

I think the attached does what you want.
FWIW this was created using the Formula Wizard

Dang, the Loomis is faster than a bullet!!!

and too think I was afraid you were going to get there first

[mikexny]

The EFS doesnt work

[ACM]

Mike
I tried both mine and David's and they both work (see attached). Now they may be both wrong but that is another story...hehehehe
Alex

[mikexny]

How did you run the EFS in esignal... what exactly do I have to do?

[ACM]

Re: Reply to post 'Esignal formula help....'

You can either:

1. Open the Editor (Tools->Editor) and Copy and Paste David's formula then
save it to the C:\program files\eSignal\formulas\(anyfolder) OR
2. Download the attachment I sent and save it in the same path above
Then
A, Right click chart and from the context menu select Formulas
B. Go to the folder you saved the efs in and select MA Mike (or whatever name you saved David's formula)
Hope this helps

THanks... got it to work...

Where can i get this formula wizard..

Re: Reply to post 'Esignal formula help....'

I believe you need to have version 7.2 and you will find it under Tools in
the Main Menu

I think you need version 7.2. Click on tools and select formula wizard.

THere seems to be a one bar delay sometimes.... How to do you eliminate this...

FOr example goto NEWP 1/28/03... the EFS makes the daily bar black but its supposed to be red

Mike

Try this. Go to the Formula Editor and open the formula Mike MA (if that is
the one you are using) and change these lines

var vSMA10 = new MAStudy(10, 0, "Close", MAStudy.SIMPLE);
var vEMA20 = new MAStudy(20, 0, "Close", MAStudy.EXPONENTIAL);
var vEMA30 = new MAStudy(30, 0, "Close", MAStudy.EXPONENTIAL);

to this

var vSMA10 = new MAStudy(10, -1, "Close", MAStudy.SIMPLE);
var vEMA20 = new MAStudy(20, -1, "Close", MAStudy.EXPONENTIAL);
var vEMA30 = new MAStudy(30, -1, "Close", MAStudy.EXPONENTIAL);

Then Save (or Save As) the formula

Does this work?
