I'm entry level in this stuff but trying to learn how to write. Below is a small chunk of a scan to keep my question simple. I just can't figure out why I get an "unexpected letter" on the "a" after "if".

Thanks to anyone who has the time
Alan

(MovAvg(0,10,a) + ((MovAvg(0,10,b)*2) +
((MovAvg(0,10,c)*3)+((MovAvg(0,15,d)*4))>
(MovAvg(-1,10,j) + ((MovAvg(-1,10,k)*2) +
((MovAvg(-1,10,l)*3)+((MovAvg(-1,15,m)*4))


The movavg function requires a token as the third parameter.

To get a ten day ma of a 10 day roc,

SET ROC = 10;
a := movavg( 0 , 10 , roc );

SET ROC = 15;
b := movavg( 0 , 10 , roc );

a will contain today's vaue for the 10 day ma for a 10 period roc.

b will contain today's vaue for the 10 day ma for a 15 period roc.
