Thanks Michael, as I pointed out, I owe my success to all who have helped me here on SI and on the home front.. Thanks for the RSIVOL stuff, yikes! MORE to to experiment with...>g< maybe I should post this on the indicator thread, but here goes... Doug R uses a SMI multiplex scatter that looks like so: Message 7864418 I was getting blurry eyed so I did this: techstocks.com then Craig DeHaan adds TSF: techstocks.com the OEM plex ends up being this: SMI Multiplex Raw data... (StochMomentum(2,1,2)+StochMomentum(3,2,1)+StochMomentum(4,2,3) +StochMomentum(5,3,5)+StochMomentum(8,21,13)+StochMomentum(13,25,2)) SMI Multiplex 13EMA...use as dotted line for signal ms:=(StochMomentum(2,1,2)+StochMomentum(3,2,1)+StochMomentum(4,2,3) +StochMomentum(5,3,5)+StochMomentum(8,21,13)+StochMomentum(13,25,2)); mp1:=Input("SMI EMA",1,377,13); Mov(ms,mp1,E) I then put up 2 TSFMA of the plex with one shifted a variety of days for an entry/exit plan... I mostly now use it for an exit, I usually optimize but try 8 and 8,-5 shift and 13, 13,-8 shift for starters. I also like BreakOut's exit and am going to look at Richards recent buy/sell post also... too much stuff, too little time...>g< Craig does extensive backtest work: Message 8359651 somewhat of a summary: techstocks.com Craig has really brought this to life with some great backtesting work but it is still a work in progress and it has had some wicked returns making one wonder if we stumbled onto something rather hot or just a misalignment of the stars... do a search on SMI and plex on the 56 thread and there is quite a bit of discussion on the matter... Some recent good hits to check out have been BLSI, ASPX, ESPI, OPEN That should get you started and there goes your weekend...>g< have fun, off to T-Ball... bperplexedog
