Bill,
Thank you for your reply.
To check out this condition, I reduced wrote a formula with just 2 conditions.
Here is the formula,
_SECTION_BEGIN("2 conditions only");
Filename = StrLeft(_DEFAULT_NAME(),StrLen(_DEFAULT_NAME())-2);
// next 4 lines are for ER2 futures
PointValue = 100;
NumContracts = 1; MarginDeposit = 100; PositionSize = NumContracts *
MarginDeposit;
Range1= Optimize("range1",7,1,10,1);
Range2= Optimize("range2",6,1,10,1);
Plot(C,"",1,128);
Plot(EMA( Close,range1), "Stopline", colorRed );
//Buy Signals
Hist1 = MACD() - Signal();
Condition1 = MACD() > Ref(MACD(),-1);
Condition3 = Hist1 < Ref(Hist1, -1);
//Sell Signals
Condition11 = MACD() < Ref(MACD(),-1) AND MACD() > 0;
Condition3 = Hist1 < Ref(Hist1, -1);
//Buy and Sell orders
Buy = Condition1 AND Condition3;
Sell =Condition11 AND Condition3;
//Short and Cover conditions
Short=Sell;
Cover=Buy;
AlertIf( Buy, "EMAIL", "A sample alert on "+FullName(), 1 );
However, I look at my chart and I have these figures.
10/11-Macd =11.81, signal = 12.64, histogram = -.0833732
10/10-Macd =11.34, signal = 12.85, histogram = -1.50653
However, my last trade was 9/27 until 10/25 with a short.
I should have had a buy signal on 10/11
Thanks,
Tom

Based on your question, I assume that your formula is:
buy = condition13 + other conditions;
What are the other conditions? Is there an interaction between condition13
and other conditions? You haven't provided enough information.
