Dr.Koch, please take a look why does WSTL lose its WL_SOLID constant?

Meanwhile a pure WealthScript version:

Thanks, Eugene. When I copied and pasted the code you provided into New Strategy from Code, it all came out on one line. Did I leave out a step?

It's not your fault. Your browser is IE7 and this site has a bug when copying from IE7.

Two workarounds:

1. Change IE7 to Firefox3. Copy/paste will work flawlessly and your browsing will benefit from extra speed, security and usability of Firefox.
2. For IE7: copy -> paste to Wordpad -> copy from Wordpad -> paste elsewhere.
