I will have to digest what you are saying. I don't understand flip yet.
While I was waiting for an answer to my post I tried something else. It keeps
track of the states but will not back test and the shape arrows are not
displayed correctly. If I am in long state the sell and short arrows are s

Hi. Below are a few comments (which may already be clear to the reader).

This is often the crux of the matter when it comes to "incredible" results

I was trying to calculate the number of bars since the HHV of price over the
past 6 months (126 trading days).
This seems to work:
A1= HHVBars(C,126);
This doesn't seem to work:
A2=BarsSince(HHV(C,126));
It always returns zero.
Why doesn't the second expression work?
Thanks,

Because you are asking the wrong question. Plot this and it will help you see
why.
A1= HHVBars(C,50); // returns # bars
bs = HHV(C,50); // returns a value

Yeah, Flip is a tricky one to understand. But, the end result is that you have
an array alternating between all 1's and all 0's
e.g.
AmLong = Flip(Buy, Sell); might give the following:

I have a need to plot two instruments on the same chart, or at least have a

Hello,
That is a matter of taste. I know people that hate ClearType (anti-aliased
