first, i managed to correct the syntax issue per your instructions -- now, the K and M columns both display '1' all the way down. the P and Q columns both show '0' all the way down so i think that there is still something wrong with what i'm doing.

Yes, something is not right here. Cells K and M should have your conditions for Buy Entry and Sell Entry, but they also need to be exclusive from each other, as you can not have a buy and sell at the same time. Per your earlier statements, you say you have the following:
- K3: IF(ID16.SG1<>0, 1, 0)
- M3: IF(ID17.SG1<>0, 1, 0)

Are these in any way setup such that when ID16 is true ID17 is not true and vice versa? You really need to have something in these to have these becoming 0 when you no longer want the position open.

currently, the spreadsheet study output on the chart displays only "1" when i display K (SG1) using Value on Low. so there is a disconnect someplace. i have not changed any spreadsheet study settings as i didn't see any that seemed to apply, but i could be wrong.

The count is in cells P and Q. So you would want to display those values. But you need to get your K and M cells working in opposite directions of each other first.
