Something I found amusing from the Metastock Help File after amusing myself today writing functions.... Function ref(DATA ARRAY, PERIODS) References a previous or subsequent element in a DATA ARRAY. A positive PERIOD references "n" periods in the future; a negative PERIOD references "n" periods ago. EXAMPLE The formula "ref( CLOSE, -12 )" returns the closing price 12 periods ago. Thus, you could write the 12-day price rate-of-change (expressed in points) as "C - ref( C, -12 )." The formula "ref( C, +12 )" returns the closing price 12 periods ahead. My lord. A function that gives you tomorrow's price! Just kidding. Thanks for the link... looks good. MrBuzz :o)
