It is possible for you to write an Ab plugin that parses metastock codes and generate afl if you really want it.

I have read a number of messages in Amibroker database and my attempt is as follows. IH_Periods = Param("Initial High", 21, 10, 100,1); HH = IH_Periods - 1; Z = HHV(H,HH); Z = 0; // Initialize for(i=1;i<BarCount;i++) { PREV = Z[i-1]; // PREV is previous value of Z. } When I use PREV in a AB formula such as iif(A > B, XX, PREV) I get 0 (Zero) when A<B.......rather than the previous value of Z. Can I assign a HHV to Z?) I hope I have explained this. Any help would be appreciated. TIA .... Keith
