bdog.....you make it so damned complicated! I thought the Magic Code was simply

if close(0) > close (-5) then
buy at close(-5)
endif;

bdog,

I *love* it! I ran this against every stock in the universe (and some outside this particular dimension) and found that I realised 101.32 percent profit with only .00243% maximum adverse excursion and with only a 2.423% transvecular sectum vector.

However, I think you could improve it by adding the following, just in front of all your code:

:loop
if Long (buy low, sell high);
if Short (sell high, buy low);
goto loop
