  Hi Y'all.  I noticed that most SF indicator examples take a constant as a parameter such as MA(20).
 
 Can SF handle variables as parameters?  For instance, if I use set{var1, aroon up (100)} can I now
 use MA(var1) later in the same filter?
 
 Thanks in advance.

  no, the value in the parenthesis of a moving average must be an integer.

  Thanks for the quick reply chetron.
 
 I am new to SF, but I have a couple of decades of trading and programming experience.  Do you know where I can find a document that covers the backtesting feature in detail?
