Thanks Augie!

I have to think about this before I can offer any thoughts. It's cool.

Nice work! Thanks again, MM

I'm going to start by coding the original Darvas box. It might generate some insight into Zeev boxes. Do you know if Zeev's reference to a step function was figurative as in stair steps or if it's a math function?

but I dont think it works that well. I like the box idea because of the forced time frame calculation.

ps I only pulled another 50 cents out of NOK between 146 and 167 kroner although I bought at the exact box bottom, I chickened out to "lock in a profit". If you actually had discipline you would not chicken out until your stops set by the actual trading range were hit

if you want to see some steps look at prtn, abb and cphd
