i have tried modifing the %change idicator and i tried to break it down just to a long indicator as well as taking off the alerts. my goal is for the indicator just to display the percent change just off the day. and what i am most concerned about is knowing if is >0.75 percent in the long situation.
thanks danny z

can't help you if you are not showing what you have done...
from the little you described,
this is nothing more than a basic programming routine.
my suggestion:
start with the basics,
start with the ebooks here:

Inputs:
price(open),
Length(0);
variables: var0(0) ;
var0 = 100 * PercentChange ( price, length );
plot1 ( var0, "%change");
thants what i have so far. i have picked up the homestudy for easy language as well as mastering stragegies with easy language.
I am using 0 for length because just want to know the percent change on the day. but if i plot that i just get a line. so i changed it to 1 and it looked like a proper indicator. i wanted to be alerted if the change has been >0.75% but i dont know what value i have to use for 75%?

no sense rushing it.
go through the books chapter by chapter
go through the exercise in each chapter
there is a reason for all the chapters -- to give you all the power of EasyLanguage
there is a reason for all the exercises -- so that you know how to use the power
p.s. I don't know which home study you are referring to,
but the "strategy" book might be too advanced for you at this stage.
check with the ebooks, (they are free)
there is a reference guide that gives you all the detailed explanation, instruction, and examples on how to apply the keywords and functions.

Ok well i have figured out most of want i wanted. but would you happen to know if i wanted the daily percentage change what parameters to input into percentagechange? the parameters are price and lenght?
can't tell you anything with the little information you are providing...
suggestions:
1. finish the book first
2. confer with the reference guide, you must follow the specific instructions in there
