I posted this entry earlier today but my computer crashed before I had finished the post; so here's is for a second time. Not that I'm impatient but I did not get a chance to properly thank whoever will help me with this.

I have no NT programming experience and would like help in creating an indicator that looks like three moving averages and is calculated as follows:

HighLine = (SMA(High,13) + SMA(High,65)) / 2
MidLine = (SMA(High,13) + SMA(Low,13) + SMA(High,65) + SMA(Low,65))/4
LowLine = (SMA(Low,13) + SMA(High,65))/2

Thanks so much for any help with this, I had created this indicator in tradestation, but have struggled with NT for a couple of weeks now with no success.

This was a quick one but I ran into trouble with your last line. It plots virtually underneath the first plot 99.9% of the time so you will only see two lines. I made the change to what I believe you were looking for originally. Give it a try.

Last, any Elite Member may create more or less any of these topics in The Elite Circle at your own discretion (your support is appreciated).

The other post went through. I deleted that thread as a duplicate of this one.

Dan, Thanks so much for creating the indicator; you where right as far as the criteria; there was a typo and your suggestion was correct.
