Dave - I've been reading all of the archived messages and have been playing with the 3, 13, 40 EMA Crossings: (https://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=622980) and have been able to construct an indicator in Metastock 6.5: (Mov(C,5,E)-Mov(C,13,E))-(Mov((Mov(C,5,E)-Mov(C,13,E)),40,E)) I'm sorta jammed up trying to make a System Tester for the same.. So far for the Long Side I've got: Mov(C,5,E) > Mov(C,13,E) AND Mov(C,5,E) > Mov(C,40,E) AND Mov(C,13,E) > Mov(C,40,E) is this the way to do it? The big jamm comes when I try to formulate the exit long thingy.. Any Suggestions? Also, this seems to work mainly on fairly volatile and fast rising/falling stocks .. correct? Have you switched to a "better" technique for these type of stocks? (I'm still in 1997 at this point) I've really been enjoying your energy and enthusiasm! Thanks, Dale
