HI Brooke, This Indicator works ok for me. I don't recall any problems with it. Sometimes Dave, downloads and other anomolees creep in to these files and causes the type of problem your having. If you print out the code, look at it for a while you should be able to see if there are any extra characters, line feeds, things like that. Works good or me, and I can email my working copy to you if you like. Arctic Mike.

Brookelise I put in the top part of the support and resistance indicator and triple checked it and still I am getting a "this character is invalid when used in this manner at this location" error and the cursor goes up to the S1 and sets right after the "1" this is what I have typed in... S1: IF(Ref(LOW,-4)=LLV(LOW,9),Ref(LOW,-4),PREVIOUS S2: IF(Fml("S1")=Ref(Fml("S1"),-1),PREVIOUS,Ref(Fml("S1"),-1)) S3: IF(Fml("S1")=Ref(Fml("S1"),-1),PREVIOUS,Ref(Fml("S2"),-1)) S4: IF(Fml("S1")=Ref(Fml("S1"),-1),PREVIOUS,Ref(Fml("S3"),-1)) S5: IF(Fml("S1")=Ref(Fml("S1"),-1),PREVIOUS,Ref(Fml("S4"),-1)) S6: IF(Fml("S1")=Ref(Fml("S1"),-1),PREVIOUS,Ref(Fml("S5"),-1)) WSO:100*(1-(Int(Fml("S1")/CLOSE)+Int(Fml("S2") /CLOSE)+Int(Fml("S3") /CLOSE)+Int(Fml("S4")/CLOSE) +Int(Fml("S5")/CLOSE)+Int(Fml("S6")/CLOSE))/6) any ideas why I would be getting the error. I put a space following the ":" on each line thanks david
