You need to put function definition BEFORE the call.

  Hello

  I get syntax error.  at the highlighted line. "a=CheckIfHeldThroThreshold(C, 
L,5,9); // this is where i get syntax error. not sure why?"not sure why. can 
someone point out why.



  Thanks



  result9=IIf((L>=EMA(C,9) ) AND (L>EMA(C,20) )AND (L>EMA(C,33) )AND 
(L>MA(C,50) ),9,0);
  result20=IIf((L<EMA(C,9) ) AND (L>=EMA(C,20) )AND (L>EMA(C,33) )AND 
(L>MA(C,50) ),20,0);
  result33=IIf((L<EMA(C,9) ) AND (L<EMA(C,20) )AND (L>=EMA(C,33) )AND 
(L>MA(C,50) ),33,0);
  result50=IIf((L<EMA(C,9) ) AND (L<EMA(C,20) )AND (L<EMA(C,33) )AND 
(L>=MA(C,50) ),50,0);
  
AddColumn(IIf(result9+result20+result33+result50<=0,0,result9+result20+result33+result50),"Result");

  
//AddTextColumn(IIf(result9+result20+result33+result50<=0,0,CheckIfHeldThroThreshold(Close,
 Low,5,9)),"Kept above threshold",1.2);

  a=CheckIfHeldThroThreshold(C, L,5,9); // this is where i get syntax error. 
not sure why?

  Filter =C>MA(C,200);

  function CheckIfHeldThroThreshold(inputClose, 
inputLow,noOfDaysofThreshold,movingAveToBeUsed){
  bHeldAboveThreshold=True;

  for (daysChecking=0;daysChecking<noOfDaysofThreshold;daysChecking++){




  if(inputLow[-1 *daysChecking]< EMA(inputClose,movingAveToBeUsed){ 

  bHeldAboveThreshold=False; 

  }

  }

  return bHeldAboveThreshold;

  }
