Hi Rainier, re:<<I will not, however, be able to provide you with formulas for most of them, for they are proprietary indicators from Omega Research>>

I kinda figured they would be, but I thought I'd ask. Nevermind on the descriptions then, I'm sure they're not detailed enough for me to really comprehend what the indicator responds to (MetaStock is the same way with their canned indicators). I know I'm an oddball, but I won't use or even bother doing any serious testing of any black-box indicator that I don't have the exact equations used to implement it. I know it fails under some set(s) of conditions....if I don't know those conditions, I won't bet my hard-earned $$$ on it. I sort of view it as it's not allowing me to assess the risk I'm taking, which always bothers me. Sibbet's "Demand Index" is a good example. I've played with it some within M/S, and it looks very interesting, but I can't find the implementation spelled out anywhere so I bagged it.
