Steve, "Kicker" is a candlestick formation, which suggests a long trend is coming. It is a series of white candles, with the second candle open at about the halfway point of the previous white candle. The close is well above the close of the previous candle. That is my definition of the kicker candle. It may not be text book, but I have used it for many years. marshall

Hi,
I don't know what a "kicker" is, but your Buy statement references
tomorrow's data - that can't be right, can it? Maybe if you posted in
English what the formula should do...
