MS formula help

Dear all,

I am new to Metastock & trying to learn programming.
I am using Meta stock Professional version 11.0
I am facing the problem given below.

I am new to Traderji as well. If solution to this problem is already available on the site,
Pls direct me to the link.

My requirement is as follows:
I want test if “Bullish Engulfing” has occurred for a stock in say last 100 days.
If yes, I need to know the dates on which it has occurred & the closing price of the
Security on those days.
If it has not occurred in last 100 days, it can simply give some message, as Not occurred or so.
I tried to write a formula in MS explorer as follows.
Pls help

Thanks

Svmmin,

There are very few users of Metastock. So if there is no response, you have a the following options :

* Google metastock formula. You may get readymade exporations there.
* Call up Viratech (authorized distributors of Metastock) and request for tech. help.

Goodluck.

Ok,
Thanks a lot for your reply.

You have missed to COPY the formula you created for Metastock exploration! I cannot but am sure someone here will surely correct out the errors in the same!
I use Metastock but only limited to things already created therein, not much do I know for creating indicators etc.
This is one Bullich Engulfing exploration I have with me on my hard disk. It is not loaded in my Metastock though, so no idea how it works. Would be happy if its of some use to you! I must have copied it from Net some time in the past.
