Stefan, That looks like the ticket. I ran the original design and realized it was slightly botched per your specs. In order for the short SRSI to be above a value line and not to have crossed below since the longer SRSI fell below it should be revised like this: Fml("StocRSI(8,5)")>80 AND Fml("StocRSI(14)")<50 AND {here's the part that requires 8-5 to never have gone below 80 since 14 went below 50} BarsSince(Cross(50,Fml("StocRSI(14)")))< BarsSince(Cross(80,Fml("StocRSI(8,5)"))) AND BarsSince(Cross(50,Fml("StocRSI(14)")))<= 15 {15=3 weeks, 10=2 weeks} The charts it first pulled up needed just what you've since added in those pivot conditions; and a declining EMA or price below the EMA would also help finding downtrends for short positions. If you see the shorter SRSI jumping over and under a threshold level then adapt the middle section noted above and it will only be above the threshold since the longer trigger event. Craig
