Hi Steve (and everyone on the list).

Its great to see someone posting material such as this.  I am an extreme
newbie to all this stuff (in every sense of the word - what with only 2k in
equity Im not gonna be making much at all in the future considering I only
make 30k per annum), but at least this inidicator tells me that Im in with a
chance provided I can tweek it just right, please keep the discussions going
fella's, Im out here lapping it all up, one day when I get enough knowledge
I to will pass it on down, but until that time I will continue to lurk and
learn.
So, what books are available out there on this sort of stuff?, aside from
all the usual crap, does anyone know of any books (third party ones) that
are aimed soley at Metastock users, or even books on Metastock itself.   The
Applications been around for long enough now for someone to have produced a
3rd party book somewhere surely!?.
I don't wish to get heavily into the mathematical functions, simply because
I can't, nor have the time.  But good indicators are hard to come by, so how
does one tweek this stuff?

But at least I know that even if Santa Claus doesn't live in Iceland, he's
alive everywhere else too :^), including Australia.

Merry Christmas to all

Cheers,
            Dave.
