  Try calculating the divisor separately Like this

  D=(HHV(H,Per1)-LLV(L,Per1)))*100),Per2,S)),Per3,S)

  And put in a requirement that D is greater than some small number.

  Another problem is that Metastock uses single precision arithmetic. This
  means that your calculations will be inherently inaccurate as you are
  dealing with small differences of large numbers. Try a simpler indicator or
  do it in Excel.

  Metastock's very weak excuse is that they do this to save disk space. This
  may have been true in the past, but with multi gig hard drives selling for
  less that fifty cents a gig, this argument is specious.

  Hi, 
  Can someone help me with this indicator.Many thanks in advance.
  The parameter I'm using is 5,5,5 and everytime when plotted in the chart
  it prompt me ( the following math errors occurred during the calculation of
  slow stoch, Divivion by zero.)
  Slow Stochastic %D

  Per1:=Input("length of stoch",1,100,14);
  Per2:=Input("length of ma1",1,100,3);
  Per3:=Input("length of ma2",1,100,3);
  Mov((Mov((((CLOSE-LLV(L,Per1))/(HHV(H,Per1)-LLV(L,Per1)))*100),Per2,S)),Per3
  ,S)

  Thanks for your attention.

  Best regards,

  Colin Chan
