  Thanks, that works well.  What if I want to do this?
 
 myclose = O+H+L+C /4
 
 
 myopen = (myopen (previous day) + myClose
 (previous day)/2
 
 
 myopen = low 1 day ago
 
 
 Thanks

  Others on this site are better qualified to help you than I am but I think you need to use the set{ } feature for more than 1 function i.e. set{a,open+high} set{b,a+low} ect...  Try your filter as you build and use the de-bug to see where you went wrong in the script.
 Hope this helps.

  four, 
 
 I don't understand the following 
 
 
 set{z, high + min(close,open 1 day ago)} 
 
 From the manual:
 The minimum returns the minimum of two values (or indicator results)
 
 Is it whichever is lesser close vs open?
 
 Thanks

  four,
 
 I don't understand the following
 
 
 set{z, high + min(close,open 1 day ago)}
 
  ----------------------------------------
 
 Find :
 
    MINIMUM of today's close and the open 1 day ago
 
 Then :
 
    Add today's high to the MINIMUM
 
  HTH

  four,
 
 Re:

 Add today's high to the MINIMUM 
 
 What is meant by minimum of the close or open?  How can there be a minimum?  The close is the close and the open is the open, right?  Confused by the context being used.
 
 Thanks

 --------------------------Stock went DOWN----------------
 Open today = $10
 Close today = $5
 
 MIN(close,open) = $5
 ---------------------------Stock went UP--------------------
 Open today = $3
 Close today = $6
 
 MIN(close,open) = $3
 
 ---------------------------------------------- PS : I am looking at two dates TODAY'S CLOSE and YESTERDAY'S OPEN.
