Somewhere you must have explained what it is and how it operates. If you haven't then someone somewhere must have explained it.

Same for the cumulative indicator.

At any rate say hello to Bruce... He is Great!  Numero Uno!

A Custom Percent True Indicator returns 100 when the Boolean Formula returns True and 0 when the Boolean Formula return False. The Smoothing Average represents the Period of a Moving Average applied to the Custom Percent True Indicator.

This means that if the Average Type is Simple, the Value of returned by the Custom Percent True Indicator represents the percentage of the Bars over the Smoothing Period that the Boolean Formula returned True.

A Custom Cumulative Indicator adds the Value to Add/Subtract to the previous value of the Custom Cumulative Indicator when the Up Condition is True and subtracts the Value to Add/Subtract to the previous value of the Custom Cumulative Indicator when the Down Condition is True. The Smoothing Average represents the Period of a Moving Average applied to the Custom Cumulative Indicator.

Wow, There you are Bruce!

Missed you and our conversations and the time that you counted the pixels on your TV.

Blocks was wonderful and it's a shame that it's not up and running now. Possibly it really would crank on a 64 bit machine.

I had some neat stuff going on there, especially in the spread sheet as well, and the conversations that we all had were wonderful, including what's his names dufus upsets.

Best wishes to you and your family. Happy Easter and by now your kids must be taller than you. ;D

The last planned version of Blocks is currently still in development as the StockFinder 5.1 beta. We are planning on including many of the features of StockFinder in the TC2000.com version 11 beta as well.

Had a friend who developed a rendering package for the Amiga. Tried it on one of my designs. It too about 6 weeks of cranking to produce the image.  There is a lesson in that.

64 bit has to be important with such a complex program.

I sent Chris a 8 page crit on Blocks and the next thing it was down. He didn't even bother to say thanks for that or the 2page crit on TC. Crits are not in the engineering world and are very much a part of the Architectural world.  So they are not personal and meant to help.

Interesting that old TCnet is hard to beat. Sure was the slickest platform to develop indicators and chart templates. Long ago I jammed your server to save my stuff... well over 2k  indicators, 3K in chart templates.

So which of those programs would be set up for programmed trading?

None of our programs offer any sort of automated trading. StockFinder's RealCode would provide the most versatility in creating an automatic (albeit not automated) strategy.
