Thanks Craig, that is the info I needed, but I don't know exactly how to write that all out ms formula. This is what I've tried: LinRegSlope(c ,14 )Fml( "Dahl Primary Trend" ) >0),3). Maybe I'm still not understanding how to integrate them. The manual doesn't give any examples of using LinRegSlope as part of another custom formula.

Sorry for the 'basicness' of my questions Craig, and Brooke,

Chris

Craig: A 3-day slope is short term, but I tested lots of values for use with Dahl in BPS (Brooke's percentage system), and 3 seemed to be the best in the buy signal. If I made it higher, I'd miss some opporchunities. However, I made the period 13 for selling. I haven't posted the QP coding for the sell signal yet. It needs one more component that hasn't been translated yet: standard deviation. "Yet" may be wishful thinking. Forchunately, I don't need standard deviation for the buy signal -- not even substandard deviation. Translating standard deviation for QP2 is going to be great fun, no doubt.

Craig: I won't have to come up with a formula for standard deviation after all. I see it's in QP's bag of tricks: StDev(). I found this out only after trying to get QP to do square roots, which standard deviation requires.
