Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] Re: How can I interpret cross function ?

Cross(c1 AND c2,0.5) means ,when both  the events i.e. c1 and c2 (value 1) 
cross 0.5, i.e. happen together............

means- when pdi crosses mdi AND c crosses mov30 together on the same 
day.........

does not appear to be a good system, as the probability of both crossing on 
the same day is very less and one is likely to miss many good 
moves...........

Carlos,

This is from the help files.

SYNTAX cross( DATA ARRAY 1, DATA ARRAY 2 )

FUNCTION Plots a "+1" on the day that DATA ARRAY 1 crosses above DATA ARRAY 
2.  Otherwise, "0" is plotted.

If you want to know when DATA ARRAY 1 crosses below DATA ARRAY 2, use the 
formula "cross( DATA ARRAY 2, DATA ARRAY 1)"

EXAMPLE cross( close, mov(close,9,e) )


In your example the c1 variable would yield a value of 1 when the PDI(14)was 
greater than >MDI(14). The c2 variable would yield a value of 1 when the 
close is greater than its 30 day simple moving average.

Sorry but I do not follow the Cross argument.
