Expansion Breakout Formula in Fchart Pro

#1
I came across a "Expansion Breakout formula" in Metastock and have tried to convert in Fchart Pro for your analysis:

Expansion Breakout [Long] :

(H = HIGHEST_H[42]) AND (TR >= TR[1]) AND (TR >= TR[2])
AND (TR >= TR[3]) AND (TR >= TR[4]) AND (TR >= TR[5])
AND (TR >= TR[6]) AND (TR >= TR[7]) AND (TR >= TR[8])
AND (TR >= TR[9])

For tomorrow's Buy : Buy above todays High + 0.125 and Stop : Yesterday's close - 1.0

Expansion Breakout[Short] :

(L = LOWEST_L[42]) AND (TR >= TR[1]) AND (TR >= TR[2])
AND (TR >= TR[3]) AND (TR >= TR[4]) AND (TR >= TR[5])
AND (TR >= TR[6]) AND (TR >= TR[7]) AND (TR >= TR[8])
AND (TR >= TR[9])

For tomorrow's Sell : Sell below todays Low - 0.125 and Stop : Yesterday's Close + 1.0

Chintan,

Above formula is suitable only in Fchart Pro. Metastock formula has different syntax which is as follows :-

Buy
A:=Close
B:{Breakout}(H-L)>ATR(9)
C:{Signal}Ref(C,-2)<=Mov(C,50,S) and
Ref(C,-1)>Mov(C,50,S) OR Ref(C,-1)<=Mov(C,50,S) and
C>Mov(C,50,S)
D:{entry}HHV(H,2)+.125
E:{Stop}If(Ref(C,-2)<=Mov(C,50,S) and
Ref(C,-1)>Mov(C,50,S),Ref(C,-1)-1,If(Ref(C,-1)<=Mov(C,50,S)
and C>Mov(C,50,S),C-1,0))
Filter:ColB and ColC

Sell
A:=Close
B:{Breakout}(H-L)>ATR(9)
C:{Signal}Ref(C,-2)>=Mov(C,50,S) and
Ref(C,-1)<Mov(C,50,S) OR Ref(C,-1)>=Mov(C,50,S) and
C<Mov(C,50,S)
D:{entry}LLV(L,2)-.125
E:{Stop}If(Ref(C,-2)>=Mov(C,50,S) and
Ref(C,-1)<Mov(C,50,S),Ref(C,-1)-1,If(Ref(C,-1)>=Mov(C,50,S)
and C<Mov(C,50,S),C-1,0))
Filter:ColB and ColC

Hope you will find the same in order.

Cheers

Create two explorer one for buy singal and one for sell signal. And insert the formula as per required column indicated in the formula.
