I would like to know if someone can convert in TS8 code. Your reward will be good for you and the group. I check and it's maching perfectly the indicator of ttm trend. By the way it's the real code from tradethemarkets.

thx philloo

Thanks for the post philloo,

You are correct I must have been making an error copy & pasting it. Yours worked fine and it was nice that I could just plug it into my formula library.

[tradestef]

I am trying to find the TTM Trend code for tradestation. Does anyone have it or know where I can get it?
Thanks
