Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] Need help with formula

Hi Gernot

I think the code below is Easy Language, for TradeStation. I'm not familiar with the language and
don't attempt conversions. There are other around that may be able to help you. It's possible that
the code is impossible to convert because of MetaStock's limitations.

I would rather attempt to build up the code from an English language description but sadly I already
have more work than I can cope with.

Sorry.

Regards

Roy
