Glad to be of help, but now I'll detail my second gripe with ProTA. I thought that I had a good programming language with Gold, but it's not quite as powerful as it first appeared. If you create a custom indicator with a parameter, that parameter doesn't appear to be accessible when using the indicator in scans. Also, I am unable (so far) to build an indicator that was of significant importance to me because Gold's built-in functions can't take my own custom indicators as arguments. That is, if I determine a value from BarsSince(), I can't then pass that value to Sum(array, barssince). Live and learn, and deal with deficiencies when you find them. pg
