Bruce

I would like real code to generate the following counts for daily and 5-minute timeframes

1. Postive count indicating number of bars since:

a) RSI reversed from negative to positive slope AND

b) StochasticMomentumIndex crossed UP through trigger

Please make this count number positive.  ie, 1 = 1 bar since last occurrence, 2 = 2 bars since, etc.,

2. Negative count indicating number of bars since (mirror image of above):

a) RSI reversed from positive to negative slope AND

b) StochasticMomentumIndex crossed DOWN through trigger

Please make this count number negative.  ie, -1 = 1 bar since last occurrence, -2 = 2 bars since, etc.,

If possible, I would like the ability to adjust the parameters of the indicators and the timeframes.

Thank you.... Dan Bender

Do a and b have to happen on the same bar?

yes, both a and b should occur on the same bar.  Thanks.

You will need to create the '# WR and '# SMI lines yourself by dragging and dropping the indicators from the chart into the RealCode Editor. Initially this will mean changing the indicators on the chart will change the settings. If you save the indicator, you should be able to adjust the settings by just editing the indicator.

Bruce - Thank you - An additional request

Could you modify the code to so that a and b occur within one bar of each other, but not necessarily on the same bar?  I am getting too few simultaneous triggers when both occur on the same bar. Too restrictive.  Thank you.

Maybe the following?

Bruce - thank you

You're welcome.
