I have been trying all weekend to solve two problems in Blocks. I want Blocks to say when Stochastics crosses below or above a certain number or percentage, output a true. Or, to say output true if short stoc crosses above the 80% line. Again, no luck.
Seems like it should be simple with blocks, but I have not been able to make it happen.
When I use what seem to be the blocks I need, the inputs and outputs won't connect.
Second problem is with +DI/-DI and ADX. I still can not tell Blocks to look for very wide divergences of -DI/+DI and the relative position of ADX, ie. Above, Crossing up/down or Below.
I have read lots of people ask about this in TC. I spoke with Craig at Anaheim and he said its easy in Blocks.
Would someone show all of us how it's done.
Thanks

The Stochastics Strategy Condition in the Indicators section of the Web Library will find crossovers of %K through specified values in either direction.
There's a Full Stochastic Strategy Condition in % true formulas used in backscanner that can be used to make the same comparisons using %D (required for a Slow Stochastic).
The Directional Movement +DI -DI Strategy Condition in the Indicators section of the Web Library will find crossovers (as well as the relative positions) of +DI and -DI.
You could modify this to check for the distance between +DI and -DI by replacing the Block making the Comparisons with a Close To or Far From Block (attached below).
You could modify this to compare ADX to +DI or -DI by copying Blocks from the ADXR Indicator and replacing the Blocks for either +DI or -DI (attached below).
Please download the attached .scond files to:
\My Documents\Blocks Files\Tool Parts\Strategy Conditions
Once downloaded, you should be able to select Add Condition | My Computer when adding a Strategy Condition to access them.

Finally,
Thank you for pointing me in a direction at least. Blocks has too many parts with little or no explanation of how all the peaces work and interact with each other. And for us little people to figure it all out in the short time Blocks has been out, well, I think we are doing well for such a short time.
Thank you again for being there. I will look at all you have given.
