AS FOR 2), THE HISTORICAL TRIGGER IS NOT BUY/SELL, BUT ARE THE TIMES XROC WAS NEAR 4, WHERE POSSIBLE BUY SIGNALS COULD HAVE BEEN.
THE LONG AND SHORT FILTERS HAVE THE POSSIBLE BUY/SELL OPPORTUNITIES.

ALSO IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS MORE OF A PULLBACK SETUP THAN CROSS OF "4" TYPE OF THING. IT SEEMS THE ONES THAT PRODUCE ARE, AFTER BEING ABOVE THE 0 LINE, PULLING BACK AND BOUNCING OFF THE 0 LINE, THAT HAPPEN TO ALSO CROSS THE 4 BECAUSE OF IT'S PROXIMITY.

TripleMOM finished today at 3.59 (xroc). Another "up" day tomorrow and it triggers a buy of QQQQ. Stay tuned.

i checked it at 3:30ish and there were no results. when i checked it after the close DCM came up. the "bigger bod" filter is my twist on the 3xmomo filter using the indposition variable. for your original thought, use the "intraday long" filter on page 2.

Have to admit I don't clearly understand your last msg. I'm not the techie you are,. That said, do you know if ROC can be smoothed? I've looked in a couple of books, and I don't see any mention of that,

Answered my own question. Found it in Stockcharts,com
Yes, ROC can be smoothed. Say you want a 3-day moving average of ROC. Using the TripleMOM's 3-measurement of ROC, here are the comparions of values on 3-12-09 (using QQQQ stock symbol pricing)
ROC(5) = +8.15%
ROC(15)= -0.42%
ROC(25)= -4.15%
--------------------------
Summation = +3.58% (just a hair from the 4.0% buy signal)
ROC(5,3) = +4.29%
ROC(15,3) = -4.06%
ROC(25,3) = -6.10%
---------------------------
Summation = -5.87 (Nearly 10% away from a 4.0% buy signal)
Gerald Appel, in the design of the Triple Momentum ROC system, which I have dubbed "TripleMOM," doesn't mention smoothing, so I'm assuming the numbers without the 3-day moving average of the ROC numbers are the ones used for the proper calculation (top example).
I'm way behind MOST posters on the SF msg. system, with regard to scripting ability, but I do know how to write descriptions of what I'm trying to ask/explain. I need schooling on SF scripting. I really admire those here who are a "10" on a 1-10 scale for SF scripting. I'm about a 2 (at best). I'll be asking more questions. Please bear with me, as I try to get up to snuff on SF scripting. My investment $$ future depends on it!

Chetron,
The line you added,
SET{VAR3,INDPOSITION(XROC,60) * 100}
Is this simply a 60-day moving average of XROC? In percentage?
