fokane 74 posts msg #58604 - Ignore fokane	12/29/2007 8:58:56 AM I am stuck on a problem with my filter, maybe someone can help? The basic filter below demonstrates the issue. It counts the number of times MA(5) crosses a horizontal line on the chart. If I use a constant literal value to define the line it works correctly. However I want to define the line as a variable related to the close and when I do this the count is incorrect. It's driving me mad! Good Count: Fetcher[ apply to symlist(KO,MCD,BKC) set{ct,close 1 day ago} set{myline,58.5} /set{myline,ct - 1}/ set{mycrossVar,count(MA(5) crossed above myline,100)} add column mycrossVar and draw MA(5) and draw price line at myline ] Bad Count: Fetcher[ apply to symlist(KO,MCD,BKC) set{ct,close 1 day ago} /set{myline,58.5}/ set{myline,ct - 1} set{mycrossVar,count(MA(5) crossed above myline,100)} add column mycrossVar and draw MA(5) and draw price line at myline ]
