   No the signals are not the same.   SuperTrend allows for 3 different kinds of averages to be used SMA,WMA,EMA and 3 different base levels Close, Weighted Close, Median price and also an average of all 3 together.  Which one CMC chose to use is anyones guess.. and they wont give me the code!

	Hi Maximo, Thanks for these indicators, they are great. In fact, they seem almost too good to be true! Are you sure that they don't "repaint" at all? Cheers, Jeremy.

	G'day Jeremy, I've updated the code, more accurate and simplified, no repaint. [Description="SuperTrend - Max"] [target=price] Mult:=Input("ATR Multiplier",3,1); Nb:=Input("Nb Periods",8,1); method:=inputma("Method",Wilders); price:=Input("1=Median, 2=Close",1,1); TruRan:=ma(ATR(1),Nb,method)*Mult; HiLimit:=if(price=1,(H+L)/2-TruRan,C-TruRan); LoLimit:=if(price=1,(H+L)/2+TruRan,C+TruRan); LB:=If(HiLimit>=PREV and HiLimit<C,HiLimit,If(C<PREV,HiLimit-0.1,PREV)); UB:=If(LoLimit<PREV and LoLimit>C,LoLimit,If(C>PREV,LoLimit+0.1,PREV)); Trend:=if(UB>ref(UB,-1),1,if(LB<ref(LB,-1),-1,prev)); [drawundefined=gap] [Color=lime green] if(Trend=1 and hist(Trend,1)=-1,LB,if(Trend=-1,UB,undefined)); [Color=red] if(Trend=-1 ,UB,if(hist(Trend,1)=1 ,LB,undefined)); [Color=lime green] if(Trend=1 or Trend=0,LB,undefined); { Paint bars} Flag:=input("PaintBars On=1, Off=0",0,0,1); [linestyle=pricecolor; color=rgb(98,217,98)] If(Trend=1 and Flag=1,1,if(Flag=0 and C>O,1,undefined)); [color=rgb(226,118,118)] {red} If(Trend=-1 and Flag=1,1,if(Flag=0 and C<=O,1,undefined)); Edited by maximo - 09 Feb 2011 at 2:04am

	Thanks Maximo, much appreciated. I'm doing some backtesting at the moment - will let you know if I find anything worth while! Cheers, Jeremy.
