Hello,
Thank you for replying ... I will check the links mentioned by you.
The formula that I am working on - is to calculate the "run" of a stock.
The "run" is defined as the most consecutive moves in a single direction.
This is a clear indication of a stock's/indexe's recent upmove/downmove.
Therefore, I intend to use the above concept to define an exploration which
requires traversal into previous time periods using a for-loop construct as in "C"
in order to calculate the "run". I have the algorithm ... Simply waiting to implement
it ..
- That's how my query emanated ... I was wondering whether MetaLib SDK does
provide the above capabilities ... Anybody know ?
- In the meantime, I will check the links mentioned and look for help ...
- Thank you
- Shobhit Mathur

Shobhit,
Lets break your question into two parts.
1.How to traverse timeframes.
2.How to conduct loops.
Traversing timeframes is probably best understood by Roy Larsen who
has a site called Metastock Tips and Tools
http://www.metastoc ktips.co. nz/
You should find formulas there that will help you as well. Roy is a
member here and has made numerous post. He's great about helping if
he can.
Loops are not a direct function of Metasock. There are programmers
who are working on it and a DLL may be forthcoming. The Dynamic
Market Lab [ http://www.thedml. com/ ] had a DLL that they claimed
allowed you to program something similar to a loop. The DLL was
available at one time on the Equis Forum.
Without knowing your formula its difficult to speculate on an
answer. If it were me I'd work on the formula side first before I
got into an exploration.
Hope this helps,
Preston
