    Error in Sinewave Generator
    
      
    Sean,
     
    Sorry to say, but my modem got zapped by a 
    lightning surge, I had to reinstall Windows, and I lost my e-mail files. 
    Thus I can't give you the direct quote of what Equis said. However, I'll 
    give you my interpretation plus my opinions. You may want to go directly to 
    Equis for clarification/confirmation.
     
    1. Equis said that the indicators that can be 
    downloaded from the May 2000 article were written at some later time, and 
    may not be a direct copy of what Ehlers wrote.
     
    2. The Cycle Length Indicator from the May 2000 
    does not agree with the one that can be downloaded for the March 2000 
    article, according to my <FONT 
    color=#000000>observations.
     
    3. The Sinewave Generator from the May 2000 
    download does not agree with the MESA Sinewave indicator that is contained 
    in the Metastock indicator list, again according to <FONT 
    color=#ff0000>my 
observations.
     
    4. My <FONT 
    color=#000000>impression is that someone at Equis who didn't understand the 
    article did the programming. They did not talk to John Ehlers about 
    this.
     
    5. Equis said that their programmers are 
    working on other things now, are very busy, and won't be able to look into 
    this anytime soon.
     
    6. I have found two other errors in Metastock's 
    programming lately.
     
    7. My overall conclusion is that you shouldn't 
    trust any of their 
    indicators; program it yourself if possible.
     
    Hope that helps. Let me know if you learn 
    anything else.
     
    Tom

        Generator
        I recently downloaded from the Equis web 
        site the Sinewave Generator described in John Ehlers' May, 2000 TASC 
        article. When I applied it to the Sept 01 Canadian Dollar contract, as 
        well as others, I got a strange looking plot that missed several obvious 
        cycles in the price data. I sent the plot to John Ehlers and he 
        responded that there was an obvious error in the Sinewave Generator. 
        
         
        I have just notified Equis of this 
        error.
