Re: [Metastockusers] Finding threshold value for an indicator

These instructions are for MS8.

But the formula was for MS7 :

    RSI(14)>70


    You have to use an Inactivity STOP for 0 periods with a large number.

    At OPTIONS in the system tester,  you should enter 0 as delay.

I don't know if it will work in MS7.
