Puddle, Thankyou, for the database scans. This is what I hoped this thread would become, an interchange of ideas and formulas that most of us Mac users can implement. I look forward to checking out your scans. Being a software engineer, I imagine you are able to pick up the Gold language quite quickly.

For what it's worth, I'll post my favorite indicator. This is not a custom indicator but a combination of two that are built in. On a separate pane, I plot an 8,13,34 moving average (simple, closes). On the same pane I superimpose a William's A/D. My primary indicator is the A/D, looking for a higher high and a higher low for a buy, and a lower low, and a lower high for a sell. I also look at crossings of the MA by the A/D for confirmation. The A/D crossing the 8 MA is a good sell signal if I'm long. The interplay of the A/D doesn't work with all stocks but I find it works with most, especially trending stocks.
