@dtatu:
Have you not set these up as a nightly signal? If so, just leave SS running and you will get the signals as a nightly email.

Kevin,
I decided to try coding the price channel screen portion of VIX LONG SIGNAL #1 in SF to see if I could get it to work properly and to better learn the SF coding language I got it to work after several tries so that it matched what Stock Charts explains as the methodology for Price Channels.
Yesterday I started my SS 30 day trial so I could check on how SS calculates Price Channels, after following your instructions for downloading ^VIX price data and creating a single symbol sector and I was able to verify by using the SS charts that SS calculates Price Channels in the same manner as Stock Charts. com explains and also that the results matched my SF filter results So I was feeling fairly confident.
Then I pasted your SS code snippet ; ' (pcu(15)-pcl(15) < mov(pcu(15)-pcl(15), 15, simple))' into the Indicator Entry box for adding a Chart Value in SS and it also turned out to match that portion of my SF filter.
However, neither my SF filter nor the SS chart show a buy signal for the Price Channel portion of VIX LONG SIGNAL #1 for Sep 2nd which is one of the long signals you reported in your msg of Sep 5th.
Since VIX LONG SIGNAL #1 has 3 conditions separated by 'AND' I'm assuming the Price Channel portion must signal a Buy along with the other 2 signals or its not a signal.
Is there an easy way you can verify that signal again for Sep 2nd and provide the values for pcu(15),pcl(15),(pcu(15)-pcl(15), and mov(pcu(15)-pcl(15), 15, simple) so I can double check my results.
That would be a big help,
Ed S.

1. Thanks for the help, pthomas
2. Kevin: yes, I did configure the emails, but I do not receive them, unless I run them manually. I think I need to configure my PC to stay Awaken at least until the run of 11 PM Eastern is completed, as the program does not seem to wake it up in order to do its routine?

dtatu, that's just what I am doing in the short term. But all the others here, especially Kevin, analyze technicals way more. My point is that the election has thrown things off a bit--I might not hold positions for very long given the craziness. We will see a rebound to several green days regardless of the election soon in my humble opinion.

Make sure you schedule to Import prices prior to running any of the signals. Once that is scheduled, the signals will be sent automatically as long as the computer is plugged in and SS is running.

Thanks.
