As you said in your earlier post: Buy = Todaysposition > 55;
is meaningless without: Hbar = HHV(C,90); Lbar = LLV(C,90); Diff = Hbar - Lbar; Todaysposition = ((C-Lbar)/Diff) * 100; And, as pointed out earlier, parts of the above formula trigger an always true condition before we even get to whether todaysposition is >55 or not. So, how can express the end result of what I want within the "buy" argument?
