This is incorrect something out of place.

=OR(AND(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5);AND(AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4))

trying to exit either cross 80 stochastics from above where AE is %K and AG is 80 line
or Moving average cross down where AA and AB are moving averages

This should be written as:
=OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5), AND(AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4))

Try this:

=OR(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5) , AND(AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4))

Yes, the formula given in post #4 is correct. We did not correctly edit the formula completely in our original post. It has now been corrected.

Is this the correct format for entry when both conditions exist where %K AE crosses 25 AH line from below and fast moving average AA crosses up over longer moving average AB:

=AND(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5) , AND(AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4)) does not generate trade

chart represents OR condition http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?l=1396050558477.png

=OR(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5) , AND(AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4)) works

=AND(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5),AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4)
This formula says both crossovers must happen in the same bar to be TRUE. This would be rare.

=OR(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5),AND(AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4))
This formula says either crossover can trigger a TRUE. This is what the pic shows.

Maybe you want something like this:
OR(AND(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5),AA3>AB3),AND(AE3>AH5,AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4))
This formula is TRUE when:
AE3 crosses AH5 from below and AA3 is already above AB3,
OR
AE3 is already above AH5 and AA3 crosses AB3 from below.

tomglib , this is what I came up with to solve the problem of preventing buys while longer term MA is still going down:
=OR(AND(CROSSFROMBELOW(AE3:AE5,AH3:AH5 ), AE3>AH5,AB3>AB5) , AND(AE3>AH5,AA3>AB3,AA4<AB4)) K
=OR(AND(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5),AA3<AB3),AND(AE3<AG5,AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4)) M

seems ok with input and range bar tweaks

Now looking to include Stochastic divergence above 80 or below 20 to improve entries Divergence is a good reversal sign

http://www.tradeforextrading.com/index.php/stochastic/stochastic-divergence-trading

IE if %K decreases after crossing above 80 while price increases, sell if short term ma reverses
from friday ES example of divergence http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?l=1396215671106.png

playing with these: if %K decreases after cross above 8o, and price increases, buy when %K crosses 80

=OR(AND(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5),AA3<AB3),AND(AE3<AG5,AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4) , AND(AE3>AG3,AE3>AE5) , AND (AA3<AA5,AE3<AG3))

conversly If %K increases after crossing below 20 while price decreases, buy when %K crosses above 20

=OR(AND(CROSSFROMABOVE(AE3:AE5,AG3:AG5),AA3<AB3),AND(AE3<AG5,AA3<AB3,AA4>AB4) , AND(AE3<AH3,AE3>AE5) , AND (AA3>AE5,AE3>AH3))
