Hi Craig! Thanks for the eyeopener...i could've slapped myself! I read an older S&C article about the hiloactivator based on some GANN swingtrader rules and they used an 3SMA as stop. The trick there is that the it's plotted in a stair step fashion(a horizontal line is drawn one day into the future and serves as level for stops). Since i had no idea how to plot this i use a normally shifted MA which might be not ideal but all i could come up. Still don't know if it's worth anything. Do you have any idea how to create such an indicator that would plot todays(or yesterdays) value as horizontal line one day into the future? Just curious if you have worked with something like this. Thanks for the quick answer! Stefan

Craig, Is there a way to write up an exploration so that it will address at the same time during the single exploration both weekly moving averages (dynamically 'compressed' from the normal daily data -- as the charts can do) and daily moving averages? So that you could have one exploration containing both lines as follows: Mov(c,5,e) > Mov(c,26,e) {for the DAILY trend} Mov(c,5,e) > Mov(c,26,e) {for the WEEKLY trend} Of course, the second line would have to be different in some way. Thanks, Nicholas
