I do not use the "VAR" MA. I have found it unreliable on periods above 16. I use:

VariableMA511(C,50) - Ref(VariableMA511(C,50),-15)

I do not pay attention to direction only to 0 cross.

DAHL is not a trading indicator, it is an intermediate term trend indicator. Trades average about 120-180 days. Investors and newbies can use the 0 cross for entry/exit. It simply says the stock is at a price on an avg then it was 15 days ago. My simple rule is don't buy if under 0, or don't sell short if it is above 0. Don't worry about indices if they are above 0. It is not the "wonder" indicator but shows good testing over time. Dahl produced after extensive computer testing of all the averages and periods.
