Hi nightstalker This is just a starting point. you need to modify,add ATR, etc the hhv high set for 55, llv low set for 20 If you cant modify these values in the previously posted afl, please use the one here posted below This is a better vesrion If you use longper, and shortper values of 20 and 10, you will get turtles short system Since I know very little, please get help from seniors. be happy. Once again, humble my grateful salutes to Graham Kavanagh for being so kind to give such a nice gift of aflcode. Gracious indeed! rvlv ---------------------------------
