It took me 6 nonstop hours to figure out something you could have told me in 6 minutes because I don't understand C# lol. I don't even understand the HasCrossedAbove method so I axed it entirely in favor of something simpler. This was my solution and it works to a degree I'm okay with but I'd like to see what your solution would have been. It's extremely crude I'm sure, but it's all I could come up with after pouring through material I didn't understand. Thanks again for the help.
