Craig, I'm just getting really frustrated w. this software. I'm using the OBV fml for system tests so far and not the explorer function. So adj. the expl. options won't help. And I tried your fml, as well as Richard's Cross fml he posted yesterday, and a few others. ALL of them are allowing buys when the OBV is less than 40 and therefore giving false negative results. I'm going to call Equis today and see what they say. There have also been missing sells when the SAR is dropping below the closing price (along with 'and stochrsi crossing 70'). The data is correct...just point and see the values to verify this. There should be a 'sell', as these are the only two sell parameters I'm using, and it's not being posted. I'm spending alot of time testing and when the results are inconsistent, it's extremely aggravating to say the least. Oh, to make it worse, I still got a division by zero error yesterday,although w. a diff. number this time, after adding the .00001 to the stochrsi14 fml. Geez!, what more can I say? Chris
